I did receive a stream of commands over about three days. They all ordered me to do something very dangerous. The local police amazing heroes that I love saved melllll That and my rather ginormous faith reservoir got the other 9. Hooray !!! Gotta, gotta, gotta have faith. Like Mr. Michael stated, rest his lovely soul. So handsome and talented. Get some faith now. Please. Maybe look into it or something. Medicine for the soul. Yay! Or not.
Asking for help through prayer seemed to help. I very highly recommend it as my most beloved coping skill. Super duper mega iltra totally, like, completely recommend looking into this approach to life's speed bumps.
Sleep.

I say this with love. I disagree.
You're dialed in on spiritual stuff. That is a pattern for you when your manic and psychotic. I take no issue with religion, but it is an intensity concern. It is a trigger for you.
You've had quite a few personal and family concerns lately, they have taken a toll.
You said you were on new, not yet approved yet meds and they were working great, but they aren't working. What does your pdoc think?
You've been working a lot on projects and I know how you hyperfocus and how your mind works because mine does the same thing.
Your language patterns are similar to what they look like when you're manic/psychotic.
I am not sure how you are home so quickly after an attempt and being seen in the hospital. I am confused as to why you weren't put on a mandatory hold.
I think any one of the things I mentioned by itself is probably not cause for major concern, but when you add it all up I would be a horrible friend if I didn't say I am worried.
What are you up to today? I think it would be good to get a safety plan in place. No religious activities. Limit reading and research. No project work. Limited music. Limited caffeine, sugar and chocolate. Limit watching the news. No politics.
Maybe a day of coloring or just sit to petting your cat. Do some laundry. Watch a movie that isn't activating. Take a shower. Do some dishes. Just basic mindless tasks to slow the brain down and cool things off.
I am so incredibly grateful you're ok. You've been on my mind and I am glad you checked in. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
