It's true. Us schizophrenics are hiding the secret methods of seducing brick walls. And we aren't sharing.

If one more non-psychotic/schizophrenic/ DID/etc person calls themselves """psycho""" I am throwing my tiny hands. "Psycho" isn't cute. "Psycho" isn't funny. "Psycho" isn't still following your ex on insta. "Psycho" is wanting to kill people. "Psycho" is seeing your walls move. "Psycho" is hiding from people your mind tells you that you can't trust.

i promise you this

psychotic people aren't inherently dangerous.

psychotic people aren't weirdos.

psychotic people aren't destined to harm others.

psychotic people are mostly wonderful people.

psychotic people are deserving of unconditional love.

psychotic people don't deserve to be demonized.

psychotic people are human.

- theres somebody always watching you

- feeling either emotionless, or agitated

- the BUGS

- the violent intrusions

- being concieved as a “violent killer” bc ur psychotic like,, no ???

I reserve the right to call myself a psychopath and "psycho" as I have a psychotic mental illness. Don't have a psychotic mental illness? You have no right to call yourself a psychopath. So don't.

Late night hallucinations lead to my first art post

To everyone who has helped create the stigma around psychosis: to every """haunted""" mental hospital, to everyone who replies to me talking about my hallucinations with "maybe it's a ghost", to everyone who calls someone sane "crazy" or "psycho" or uses those words to invalidate someones voice, to everyone who gets scared when I say I'm psychotic, to every horror movie about an insane asylum patient who escaped to finish the job, to everyone who says "it's not his fault he killed her; he's psycho" about their favorite mildly attractive fully sane serial killer, to every time I've been told to stop pretending someone else is talking to me; I am healing despite you. Imagine what I--what we all--could've done if you helped us?

dear psychotic friends

yes non-psychotics you can reblog this. in fact, please do.

here’s a list of things you’re not inherently for simply having psychosis:

a criminal

a violent person

a bad person

scary

weird/odd

any other negative thing people think people with psychosis are

why? (numbers correspond)

unless you’ve committed a crime, you’re literally not a criminal.

not violent? you’re not a violent person. end of story, friend.

bad people are bad because they do either extremely bad things or waayyy too many bad things. doing a few bad things here or there that aren’t severe don’t make you a bad person. 

what you experience may feel very scary and others may be scared for you, but know that you aren’t a scary person. scary people do scary things (this doesn’t include reacting to your symptoms!). scary people do not experience scary things. 

your symptoms and your reactions to your symptoms dont make you weird. they arent you. they arent part of you. they’re what you experience. 

y’all, most psychotic people are angels. you are an AMAZING person.
