Negative symptoms..*

I'm tripping from weed. I got interested in what a user said about smoking it. People do smoke it for certain reasons. Again, in time, and again.

I'm wondering what could bring me into psychosis and what tasks I should perform to prevent it? I'm going to read over my CBT therapy papers later. I wonder what magic my therapist knows and what she can teach me as it is CBT in relation to psychosis. That was the title. I guess certain people just get freaked out by certain thoughts naturally so they need antipsychotics but some can smoke weed without getting freaked out so that's why I feel like I have a chance.

What I write becomes real sometimes. But the whole universe is just random. Unless you give in to the pain and emotions which turn them into realness.

I get strong messages when I listen to music. There's certain symptoms that form energies to create disorders and such. Because disorders are just pictures of people that psychiatrists, mental patients and the public get collected in their minds, in certain orders. So everyone has a different idea of what schizophrenia or bipolar is for example.

Yet schizophrenia remains an interest for psychiatrists and doctors. Why? Are they interested in reality too and losing touch with it? Or do they actually want to help the patients? Some do.. I notice all of my psychiatrists except my current one actually cares. She feels empathy. The other doctors were more about EGO.

Ego and empathy. When the ego is dissolved, you see empathy. And that is why my current psychiatrist is the most concerned. Just like my mom and sister. Because they have empathy. My dad has empathy but he's more masculine so he ignores it or is out of touch with it. Psychosis and other tragic things are concerning for people with empathy. The world needs more empathy.. but the ones that do are considered to be insane, creative and innovative.

That is why I want to lower my injection. Because I can handle slight psychosis. I believe it makes me in touch of something that really identifies with my need for a better more real mind. A more beautiful mind.

But maybe my negative symptoms are worse in other people's perspectives. Just like how I see people that smoke weed. If those people have it together and aren't too high/insane.

It's just the meditative people that seem different but the philosophical, contemplative people like Joe Rogan for example, seem either too into reality or too out of it.

I don't really understand these connections. But maybe that's a good thing. I don't know the truth. But the more you connect the dots, the more deep into it you get. Just like conspiracy theorists. They shouldn't be damaging their minds by trying to know everything.

But I think my perspective is that way because I have trouble by always reaching the end of solipsistic infinite knowledge that cause some type of emotion such as pain to put an end to the never ending infinite universe.

Someone said on this board that;

"I heard once that psychosis is when you think that 2+2=5 and that is what you believe to be true. Neurosis is when you know that 2+2=4 but still you worry about it."

That makes a lot of sense.

"A new paper published in Psychiatry Research sheds some light on this phenomenon, or why smoking weed seems to unleash a stream of loose associations. The study looked at a phenomenon called semantic priming, in which the activation of one word allows us to react more quickly to related words. For instance, the word "dog" might lead to decreased reaction times for "wolf," "pet" and "Lassie," but won't alter how quickly we react to "chair".

Interestingly, marijuana seems to induce a state of hyper-priming, in which the reach of semantic priming extends outwards to distantly related concepts. As a result, we hear "dog" and think of nouns that, in more sober circumstances, would seem to have nothing in common."

That is absolutely fascinating but it's a symptom of psychosis. I suppose you have to really fit into a certain box to be considered psychotic.. but you only have to fit in a certain amount of boxes.. like 4 or something.. which to me is very strange.

Psychiatrists bring a lot of strange things to the table with psychosis. It seems like every person with a mental disorder comes with psychosis possibly. Also anyone can become psychotic because no one knows how to predict it. Genes, possibly.. but we're not very good at that yet. There is a cure for psychosis, it's just a matter of when.

I'm confused as to how weed and psychosis relate. Because "High" means happy. Many drugs do that. But there's certain characteristics about certain drugs like weed that we call, "Psychedelic" - meaning, "Soul-revealing" or "Mind-manifesting". Very weird stuff..
