psychotic
If you are doing anything harmful to other people it is always of concern. Stalking can come from psychotic obsessions. Don't worry what mental illness it is. It could be bpd. It could be something else perhaps but do seek help.
I have had three different psychotic episodes in the last year, in these a hallucination that felt as if i peed myself was always present and disappeared after the two first ones where helped with medication. This last psychosis that I had in february it has stuck to me. It no longer feels as if i'm peeing myself but rather as if i really need to pee when in reality i do not. I am on anti-psychotic medication but it does not seem to help it at all.
* sorry for any typos!*Basically, i have ocd, anxiety, depression and i have been talking to my therapist about me possibly having maladaptive daydreaming disorder. So maybe those things contribute to my obsession. Anyways, i have always loved the person i belive im "obsessed" with. Its just recently that i have become almost in love with him. I have always gone through short phases where i become almost obsessed with a clelebrity or tv show. But this one is alot more intense.
and then i remind myself that if i wasnt five monthes ago and that if this isnt even how this obsession started than obviously im not. but that only reassures me for the next five minutes, one day i broke down crying and asked my mother why i didnt like to play with dolls when i was younger, i look at everything i do to see if it shows any signs of being gay. the fact is i cant walk out of the house without makeup, i always look in the mirror and care about my appearance.
this habit of forming male genitail in face has quite turned into obsession, and i am completely entangled in it. It is as though like creating image in face and other parts of body. i think i am completely obsessed with such. I know how ridiculous it sounds.
My daughter is almost five. She goes from one obsession to another. Examples: mentions uncomfortable underwear for two months; making pony tail tight every time we make her for two months; then clearing her throat every 5 seconds; she baits her nails (this has been ongoing for a couple of years); very competitive.
Otherwise she is a pretty healthy child, very happy, very smart (can read, learns very quickly, etc.

my 22 year old son just experienced a psychotic break. I need to understand how he was feeling. Is there anyone who has personally experienced this, and would be willing to describe what you felt? I am desperate to understand what he is going through.
5 which I feel fine.. As of late I have been waking up with what my friend believes is psychotic episodes, moments of ultra confusion for me as I usually have no recolection. It is now getting to the point where I could hurt myself as I thrash about and walk into walls. I had a CT Scan which showed no problem. These attacks which I thought where TIA"s (Transient ischaemic attacks) mini strokes if you like proved otherwise..
Not every breakdown is psychotic. I had a complete mental breakdown about 16 years ago or so which lead to 3 years of crushing depression - my illness course leaves me prone to this type of breakdown.
However not being on meds? Dont know - i went nearly 15 years not on meds and i thought i was fine until I wasnt and went psychotic manic, so you might be fine for a long time as well.
And I wasnt fine, I was hypomanic and looking back had at least 3 mini breakdowns and burnouts in that time.
I am currently recovering from a severe depression with suicide ideation in which i apparently had psychotic symptoms. Has anyone else had psychosis without knowing what it was until speaking to your therapist about what was going on? and does anyone have any advice as to what to look for in oneself when psychosis starts?
My pdoc yesterday told me it's possible to have a psychotic break from too severe anxiety. This scares me bad, what is that? Does that mean I'll go crazy and hurt someone? Myself? Has anyone ever had one of these? Also is there anyone here that has had several months of severe anxiety, then slowly goes back to several months of calm? I'm afraid this feeling will last forever. Just to make sure I'm experiencing this "anxiety" what does it feel like to u all?
She is 20 years old and in college. Today she told me she felt like she was having a psychotic breakdown.What is this kind of breakdown?
I now know I always had behavior that was unusual and somewhat abnormal since I was a child, first started having psychotic thoughts when I was 13 and then at the age of 18 had a full psychotic break. I never really felt like myself until I started that treatment in clinical study but once I did could look back and see that I always had behavior patterns and obsessions that were markedly abnormal.
i had the breathing obsession as well ten years ago. i was actually breathing for myself and i couldn't stop diong it. i thought i was going to stop breathing. it was a living hell. i got over it with the help of lustral, zispin, and melliral and lots of support from family and friends. i recovered after 6 months and have not thought about breathing since. C.B.T is also very good. Usually 90% improvement with 5-7 sessions.
