Text: my diagnosis is not an insult
“Psychotic”, “psychosis”, “schizophrenia”, and “bipolar” are not bad words. They are medical words that describe certain mental conditions. They don’t mean evil or anything like that. Stop using them as pejoratives, it only makes our lives harder.
One step at a time.

Text: you’re not weird for having physical side effects of antipsychotics
Tics, tremors, spasms, weight gain, and other physical symptoms can all result from taking antipsychotics. We don’t talk about these side effects often but they can be very difficult to live with and can be very othering. If you have bothersome side effects from antipsychotic use, you’re not weird or abnormal for your side effects, it’s just a part of life and is not a reflection on you.
Types of Delusions
I wrote about some of the different types of delusions on my blog!

Your worth is not defined by your clothing size.
The thing about knitting is it’s much harder to fear the existential futility of all your actions while you’re doing it.
Like ok, sure, sometimes it’s hard to believe you’ve made any positive impact on the world. But it’s pretty easy to believe you’ve made a sock. Look at it. There it is. Put it on, now your foot’s warm.
Checkmate, nihilism.
This is a powerful positive message..
I’m literally reading a book right now (Burnout by Emily and Amelia Nagoski) that says this is scientifically sound.
There have been studies done on rats and dogs where they develop learned helplessness in the animals by giving them impossible tasks. Eventually the animals stop trying, even when the task stops being impossible. (I.e. put a rat in a maze with cheese it can’t get to until it develops learned helplessness, then put the cheese somewhere it can get to it and it won’t even try.) But once they show the animals they CAN do something - i.e. physically moving the rat to the cheese - the learned helplessness goes away.
No one can move you to your cheese for you, but the book says DOING something - which they define as “anything that isn’t nothing” can help. Make a food. Work in the garden. Clean a thing. Do a favor for a friend. Call your elected officials.
Knit a sock.
If you feel overwhelmed by existential despair, do something. It doesn’t have to be big. It just has to be anything that isn’t nothing.
This is really good advice for ADHD people because when executive dysfunction gets bad it’s easy to fall into this pattern of thinking. Do just one thing. It doesn’t have to be your homework, or a chore. It can be something small, it can be something you enjoy. But do just one thing to remind yourself that you can.
This is what “humans want to be productive” really means
We want to make things. We want to do something and at the end of the process see that something has changed. We want physical proof that we did something. We want to be able to point at something and say “I made this”. We want to be creators
