I'm DD, from the Discord. I have Schizophrenia. I also have a lot of stuff going on in my life that I'm open to discuss anytime anybody may be interested, like possibly finding a job? What? Yeah. I like to help others, however I can. Anytime someone needs to talk, you can send me a message, and I'll respond ASAP


  What are your triggers? How sensitive are they?
Posted by: Zach the Schizophreniac - 06-06-2025, 01:27 AM - Forum: Psychosis Q&A - Replies (1)

I'm wondering what are common triggers for psychosis or psychotic symptoms, and if people have different triggers for different symptoms.
Mine are stress and the dark. I'm so sensitive to the dark I get assaulted my all manor of symptoms as soon as I'm in complete darkness, it's been years since I've slept in the dark... My trigger for stress isn't so sensitive, but now I have a fear of stress is inhibits my daily life as a result.

Bonus question: If your triggers are the same as mine (or even if they aren't I'm not your boss), how do your symptoms manifest in those situations?
For me, most commonly in darkness I get all sorts of hallucinations, feelings of being watched, delusions involving there being 'something' in the dark, a sense of impending doom and paranoia, plus if I think of something unpleasant too hard, it will manifest. In terms of stress, it triggers ALL of my symptoms with them being more severe the more stressed I am, though they will usually not occur if I'm around other people. As you can imagine, this snowballs fast, I'll be stressed, then, to start, I'll get stressed about being stressed (because I know it usually ends in psychosis), then my symptoms will stress me further, eventually the symptoms get so bad that I can't sleep, either due to always being in fear, or the knowledge that if I go to sleep too stressed I WILL have sleep paralysis, if I haven't gone into full blown acute psychosis by the time I get to insomnia, then the insomnia will cause it.

I keep doing tasks and fast despite a lack of sleep. I have been missing several doses of latuda but I also have temporary physical meds. I say this as possible causes, but I don't know. It took me a half hour to sit down now bcI kept finding small tasks lol

Irritable and paranoid at several times so I made a psych appointment for next tuesday.

The initial steps to make CNP for the WIN official in every way have already begun. I can't express the joyous excitement I feel about making a difference in the lives of psychotic patients in under funded facilities.


  Wavering on symptoms

So, for a while I have been mostly clear of psychosis symptoms, but in the last week or two I have been having more thoughts come back about the entities controlling my life. I think this is due to both friendship stress and taking one of my antipsychotics at varying times depending on when I eat on a given day. This one requires 350 calories, and I just haven't been having a morning appetite which is usually when I would take it.

It's probably going to be better. I have worries about my lack of appetite, but I may just change to taking it at night. I'm not sure. The friendship stress is over, so this is the last factor, and I think I can manage but I'm going to keep an eye on it.
