3 Ways I Masked My Psychosis Before I Learned Healthier Coping Skills

Living with schizoaffective disorder is a challenge. I frequently experience hallucinations and psychosis that can be hard to hide. However, I have found that over time, I learned or assumed that my psychosis was “not OK” and I taught myself how to mask it. Unfortunately, this led me to a nervous breakdown, and I ended up in the hospital. Some of the ways I hid my psychosis were incredibly dangerous and unhealthy, but living in a world where psychosis is seen as something negative and almost taboo can be so hard. Almost any method to manage the psychosis can seem better than nothing at all.

Socialization Is Crucial for People With Psychotic Disorders, but Where Do We Start?

When people carry a diagnosis or disorder such as psychotic disorders and symptoms of psychosis, socialization is incredibly important. Why? On the mere level of orientation and perception, when people maintain their connections with other people, it also means, with some exceptions, they are “tuned in” to the world around them given their social world demands their attention, focus, and enough concentration to operate without incident on a socialized landscape.

The Early Warning Signs of Schizophrenia I Wish I Had Known

Schizophrenia is a complex illness that can often be unpredictable and difficult to detect in yourself. However, there are warning signs that can be spotted before more severe symptoms begin, such as hallucinations and/or delusions.

My Mental Health Diagnosis Is Just as Serious as My Cancer Diagnosis

Before anyone yells at me for the title of this article, I want to be clear that I am currently battling stage IV cancer and have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, OCD and PTSD for nine years now. So, I think I have some room to speak on this topic. And it’s interesting, because I see things like cancer and mental health struggles constantly being compared. Some in the mental health community want to advocate that their struggle is just as bad as physical health, which can lead physical health patients to feel invalidated because not all people understand mental health.
