Who /schizoaffective/ here? I've been having this new thing where I can't tell my dreams apart from reality and have sleep paralysis at least once a night. Is this due to the schizo or is it something else?

smoking is the only thing keeping me from going off the edge.

Shit, this is happening to me more and more lately, where I can't remember if something happened in a dream, or in reality.
Am I beginning the descent into madness?

They're going to give you benzos which will make you worse off than when you started.
Can someone fall into sleep paralysis while walking?
I once collapsed and was not able to move.
I was fully conscious, but nothing was bothering me. It felt really nice until I got a panick attack because I thought someone would come into my room.
Please stop self-diagnosing and do something to change your thought patterns. Schizophrenia and bipolar stuff is often a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I think I have AVPD, maybe BPD. I thought I was just depressed, but therapy and meds didn't really work for me. I'm about to have an intake next week with a new therapist, start from scratch, and go from there. Hopefully I'll figure out what exactly is wrong, and maybe I'll be able to fit in with the normies one day.

I also have trouble telling dreams and reality apart
My mind just feels foggy
Mirtazapine makes my dreams weird, but I think my psychiatrist will have me stop using it soon if Lyrica works well for me

>They're going to give you benzos
Not true from my experience
They will give you antidepressants
Doctors with any real experience won't prescribe benzos especially not long term

Therapy is probably the most important part of combating anxiety
Exposure therapy and /a lot/ of talking

This is what I'm hoping will happen. I know DBT can help change some negative cognition that has made socializing and staying focused and productive an issue. I'm just glad I won't really have to fuck with meds, although I probably should quit smoking weed, getting drunk, and doing coke.
I'm not saying I have a personality disorder for sure, that's why I'm going to go through an eval, and hopefully find out for sure what's wrong, but I feel this would explain a lot of my behaviors.
I quite enjoy being a sociopath.
Without emphatic boundaries I can use anyone, anytime to get whatever I want.
