This brings back memories...

Lack of sleep, a year of pure isolation, taking meds in appropriately, adding other substances and going down a conspiracy rabbit hole on YouTube lead to me to psychosis and paranoia. Thought I had schizophrenia once lack of sleep and drugs had me hallucinating. ...

For me, anger and disappointment about a job I had taken lead to blaming others, fear....which lead to self destructive behavior...which lead to paranoia and more searching for people to blame. Then I started watching all this negative stuff about the government, and it was a new source for me to blame. And excuse to continue wallowing, not taking responsibility for my life.

Eventually, I got some sleep, turned off the tablets and phones, went outside and interacted with my community....and everything subsided.

This is just my story...the mind can really start to trick you when you isolate and stop appropriate self care.
