Psychosis - another reason to be anti-theist
#31
RE: Psychosis - another reason to be anti-theist
I'm very sorry to hear that Rasetsu. That must be extremely hard.

I'm not qualified to give advice but I'll try my best anyway.

I would suggest trying as hard as possible to focus on reality, and by that I mean the reality you know is shared by us all. I think trying to follow religious mythology while struggling in this way is a really bad idea. It sounds to me like that will only serve to validate and cement parts of your experience which you know/suspect aren't part of reality.

I'd say do everything you can to reassure yourself that your delusions are not real. I don't mean trying to just ignore them, that's not realistic, but "hold them to trial".

I wish I could offer better advice Sad I really hope you can find a way through this.

If you haven't seen psychforums.com there are some good threads over there on religion and psychosis, bipolar, schizophrenia, etc. For many people religiosity comes with mania of bipolar. Religion can complicate things for some people. http://www.psychforums.com/bipolar/topic160851.html

Guys, what happened to my crazy mate Psychoslice? he never really did make much sense, but that was why I couldn't be derogatory towards him, with his issues and such...

He went into meltdown mode and got banned for abuse and trolling, if I recall correctly.
