I'm trying to recover from surgery I had last week and I've been miserable. The pain is virtually gone, but I'm depressed and I feel pretty hopeless at times.
I've also accepted that I'm having psychosis right now and have been for a while. I was hearing voices two nights ago and they were projecting their faces into my mind. One of them was a blonde lady with a bob hairstyle who was telling me some of her deepest secrets, but I couldn't understand the gibberish. It was random words strung together. I had also never seen her face before, and she didn't tell me her name. I didn't realize until the next day when I did some fact checking that my experiences didn't add up. I mean, I spent a while trying to figure out the message she was trying to relay to me. When I couldn't figure it out, I thought more and more about how it was a voice with a face and I never actually met her. And why would someone be talking to me in my bedroom when I didn't let anyone in. I took my rexulti last night for the first time in... uhh... I don't know how long. A very long time. I almost threw it up because it reacted with my stomach so badly. But I hope things start improving. Thanks for listening. |

Having had 3 different surgeries myself... one major... I know something of what the recovery period can be like. Hope you begin feeling better soon.

Hugs. Recovery is a lot to take on and adding psychosis makes for rough times. I am impressed at how self aware you are. I didn't know I was suffering from psychosis until it was way too late to do anything about it. I had go be hospitalized for 10 days and spent time in an outpatient program afterward. Don't be afraid to ask for help if it continues as psychosis can get dangerous really quickly. I hope things get better for you soon.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
