I'm worried I'm developing schizophrenia
| I did a big dose of THC 400mg and felt equally absurd.
If not droogs tho kinda sounds like depression, the wall for throw away thoughts breaks down if you a supa sad and don't have a good internal external mechanisms to mental check yourself. Kinda like dissociation.
| >>937700 it's both drugs and depression but what worries me is that this derealization feeling is getting progressively worse with time
| if you ain't already doing something about it with help in *any* way i highly encourage u to do so before it's too late.
| >>d3fb75 probably start doing things that feel more real I guess.
Exercise, hanging out with people you have something in common with or working on something that feels fulfilling. Basically all the shit that would normally excite the brain. If you're a neet, same but on smaller scales.
Probably cut the droogs for a bit as that's in your control hopefully. You haven't mentioned any auditory or visual hallucinations tho. Might just be schizoid instead of schizophrenia.
| >>937728 There aren't really hallucinations, though I'll occasionally see words other than what's actually there while reading, then blink for a second and it'll be what it's supposed to be. I'm definitely gonna cut back drugs, seems like it's not helping how I feel
| The intrusive thoughts that just sort of happen almost seem like they could be an auditory hallucination but I'm unsure. It's still my own voice interrupting my thoughts with a comment and I'm not being told to do anything by it.
| stay safe bro.
| >>95d44e the supa sad combined with a lack self worth/self esteem.
Find or work on a hobby and keep yourself busy. Then find some people to connect to help build back that ego.
If the walls start vibrating and you're dead grandma starts chatting you up then get checked in and get dat lithium prescription
| When's the last time you went in for a mental checkup g/u/rl?
| Mental health is important fam. You should get a mental health checkup the same you would a normal checkup.
| I stopped going to therapy in November because it wasn't doing anything to help. I tried to explain to two different therapists that what I'm feeling is a lot like derealization and they did nothing but try to get me to talk about my week :/
| ID*
| I don't know if it's possible to develop schizophrenia just like that, but detachment is something that is shared with avoidant personality disorder which is what I have. I was told that schizo would be full-blown.
| Schizophrenia is mostly a genetic thing afaik
It isn't full-blown, but it does progressively get worse.
A way to combat the development of schizophrenia is to make your sleep schedule extremely rigid and to do and learn more things.
My take is that it's probably a combination of the drugs and social isolation. I'm not a doctor or therapist, but I've had to work with a schizophrenic before, and they talked a lot about it.

| it's like I'm living in a haze where I can't be sure that what I'm thinking or experiencing accurately reflects the material world. Sometimes thoughts jettison into my mind and it takes me a second to be like "why the fuck did I just think that?"
