Psychosis is a self fullfilling prophecy
The problem with psychosis is that it's a self fulfilling prophecy. You start with the idea that people are watching you, want to hurt you. It's hard to act 'normally' once you have such a belief. The more nuts you act in public, the more likely it is somebody will actually call the cops on you and have you locked up. The more you resist the more violent your captors become... the scarier everything gets... this is what i wish people understood about psychosis. At a certain point you're not imagining things, because whatever you imagined has become real.
