    Beautiful. I really enjoyed that podcast when that man was explaining how schizophrenics became alive again when they had a purpose, to help others....
    I find that to be so true, when I give to others in need I get a "high" and I feel genuinely happy... thank you for this video, I really got a lot from it.

    You're videos are fantastic. I'm trying to learn a bit more about psychosis as I've had people come into my work, clearly having used substances of some sort, and have been incredible loud and abussive. I figure understanding what might be going through their head will help me handle them with a bit more compassion while also making sure I can keep myself safe. Again, Great videos! and best of luck to anyone on their journey to recovery!

      Hey Ima, i'm battling with this at the moment after a drug induced psychosis after mushrooms. I haven't had any issues with voices or hallucinations but my delusion is that I feel like I forgot words and things I've learned before, it's very hard for me to socialize, like at all be present in a conversation and keep it up except for replying with one word or sentence answers. I'm wondering where you're at right now in your journey and how's recovery looking for you. I find that I can't concentrate on things either and I can't really store information well right now.

    What do you did to overcome social anxity? I am at recovry from drug induce psychosis right now and I am so depresed and have socail anxity..thank u

    • @layotheleprechaun
      @layotheleprechaun  2 роки тому +1

      Hey, thanks for your question. With social anxiety, I follow a couple of things. First of all, I follow my breath and do a couple of different breathing exercises depending on the situation. Heres a video where I explain those breathing exercises: ua-cam.com/video/YS1_liLN65A/v-deo.html
      Secondly, it’s great to put yourself in uncomfortable positions. For example, have you seen the youtube channel yes theory? They are the best example of ‘seeking disconfort’ in a fun way. How you could do this, is by joining a community of some sort. It could be for exercise, creative writing or volunteering to help someone. There are studies to suggest that depression can come from a lack of community. We are social animals after all.
      Finally, your health comes 1st. Take a break when you need to. From spending a lot of time on your own to being with a lot of people, it can be overwhelming. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and you’ve practiced the breathing technique, be honest with whoever you’re with and explain to them how you feel. Take the time out and they’ll understand

    I had drug psychosis for 26 years.
    4 and a half years ago i quit drugs.
    I was quickly able to stop the anti psyk meds.
    However, whenever things in life go wrong all the old paranoid pathways in the brain fire right back up.
    Currently i just have to shove that crap down and ignore it but it would be great if it didnt happen.

    Hey mate, I had a drug induced phychosis after being spiked with mescaline, it's been 8 months since and I've been depressed since and have health anxiety with some ptsd symptoms, (intrusive thoughts) things are getting better but I get paranoid i wont get better do you have any advice for me ? Also did you return back to yourself in the end after recovery? Appreciate any advice thanks

    • @layotheleprechaun
      @layotheleprechaun  2 роки тому +2

      Hey mate, I’m sorry you got spiked with mescaline. Thats an evil thing to do. I can understand the health conditions you’re going through. That experience wouldve been pretty traumatic. You’re going to want to do some trauma work and to stay active. Trauma work is best done under supervision as it can bring up some dark stuff.
      I dont like to refer to my transformation as turning back to myself because I didnt like how I was before. I love myself now. If anything I have found my true self through this transformation.
      Good luck on your recovery brother. Message anytime you need
