I am going to the hospital tomorrow I hope. Been a while since I went been feeling not right in my head. Been kinda down and wrong with my meds. In two days something weird is going to happen.
I gotbhurt but I hung out with. It's a secret.
They turned out perfectly fine and I had a great day even though I am going to sleep for a while and then maybe leave the internet.
They're in trouble it's all my fault and I don't know what to do. I wish I knew a better way to help them all.

WHY / WHY ME (repeated)
Now I know everything I thought wasn't real really isn't real. I've been having delusions for years. It's been harrowing. I've bothered others, gone off the deep end. If only I could go back 5 years and undo what has happened and what I did. I don't feel the crippling guilt anymore at least that's lasted my entire life.

if you *really* want to try and understand psychosis, I always offer the experience of dreaming.
Almost everyone on the planet dreams, and I find it to be a perfect comparison for psychosis... Anything can happen in a dream and you don't question it. This is your reality. If you're suddenly an astronaut, you don't typically question it. If there's suddenly a dragon, you don't typically question it. A monster can crawl out of the bushes or a stranger can appear in your house. Anyone can be someone they're not. Danger can come from anywhere. A pleasant dream can easily become a nightmare.
The only difference is that you wake up in the morning and it's over. And most people don't judge you for it. When you "wake up" from psychosis, there's often shame and people judge you.
