>that sounds like depression and anxiety
I don't understand what you are getting at, I am already diagnosed you know? There's no turning back, have to take meds

i see, sorry

how is it? do you ever notice that some things are wrong? do you think you're being logical and rational when you have one of those episodes?

Yea, I do, second time I was able to turn of radio and tv because I couldn't handle it.
I am not at all logical and rational in psychosis but I try to think it away and feel I am getting better at it

that's great man, good luck to you, if you see that some things are not right or normal then there's still a chance for improvement

Thanks, you free from any mental problems?

I think a good diet helps a bunch, depression hasn't been that bad ever since and I think the diet switch made that partly possible

no, i had anxiety that was so bad it somehow made me do meth once, i used to be stuck in almost permanent panic attacks, for months, but i'm okay now

same as you, changed my diet, started going to the gym (this helped a lot), tried to do everything that helped reduce stress, also stopped drinking alcohol, even beer, coffee too (since it creates anxiety)

shit sucked but in the end improving yourself and going forward is always better than complaining internally about it, even though this logical decision is sometimes clouded by mental problems

Good to hear, I suppose exercise is something I could pick up, but I prefer the casual taking a walk

I used to do running but it bores me

try getting a gym membership, exhausting yourself and getting a high from an intense workout really helps clear your mind of shitty, irrational thoughts

it's also better, as far as I know, that walking or running since those can be bad for joints

either this or swimming

also, as far as I know alcohol, coffee and other psychoactive substances can have really bad effects on people who are genetically predisposed to mental illnesses, I avoid them like the plague

I mean, this is despite what most people say about alcohol and weed

they can ruin your mental health even in small doses if your brain structure is really fragile in some way (prone to anxiety attacks and etc)

drinking alcohol is like going inside your head and beating the shit out of random neurons and killing them as if they don't matter

Pretending psychiatry is scientific, reliable, and effective isn't helping anyone but psychiatrists and drug companies. It sure as fuck ain't helping the patients.

agree, every case is special, every brain is unique and its problems have a multitude of different causes
