Psychosis is Seductive
Life Lesson Learned – the 3Ls
I adhere to my 3Ls because they are my reality
I rely on my reality to make sense of my world
The truth of my lived experience includes life lessons learned
I thought I could communicate with birds
When I looked in their eyes I saw connection
It was as real as when I thought ‘they’ were out to kill me and I was paralyzed by fear
These experiences I describe as delusions
Yet they are as real in my head today as when they happened
They changed me
The dream world of psychosis enveloped me with powerful emotions
And who would not wish to have magical powers
Or be part of a grand scheme
I have a greater respect and daresay love for birds
I am much more aware of my environment around me at a given time
Psychosis has in a big way changed and improved my life
