embarrassed about psychosis?
 

has anyone ever felt embarrassed by your psychosis? I finally managed to get my case manager to understand how paranoid I get and all, and now I feel stupid. Like I'm just making it up and am wasting her time. It's embarrassing too for some reason. Anyone else feel this way?

hello when ur so far gone that ur in the hospital u dont even get embarressed
try getting arrsted in ur own house cos ur father is a prick and then being so out of it you cant even see or hear or smell properly
then u can think about it
sori i edited this i dont know what ur going through but if your sick whats to be embarressed about like
i mean concentrate on ur well being and forget about the rest
hug!!!

yeah i do. not on here as such but in eal life. i feel so stupid for not knowing whats real! xx

I get embarrassed when my thought processes make it difficult to communicate to people in real life. Embarrassed and stressed. Because it makes me seem stupid :[

Yeah I know that feeling all too well. Talking to my psych makes me embarrassed about it, because the way he looks at me and doesn't understand makes me feel like it's not worth talking to him, and then I clam up. It's impossible to tell anyone else because, as a friend was said to me so well, "when they hear an illness with the word 'psycho' in the name they get scared. The only way for them to deal with this is to take the piss"

I know how you feel. I contatntly feel like I'm making it up. Finding myelf crying on the floor with fear from the hallucinations is so embarrassing in retrospect. I can barely talk about it, and didn't talk about it for years and years because it freaked me out so much. It's not an easy thing to talk about at all--but I think it is necessary to talk about it, and well done for telling someone.
