Interestingly enough, most of my psychotic episodes featured hell motiffs/delusions so you could well point the finger at religion if it came to attributing guilt for my delusions.
That fucking sucks. So, psychotic episodes manifested delusions of hell? Are you atheist, now? I assume the meds are helping control the condition?
I'm effectively cured because of the use of antipsychotics - haven't had a psychotic episode for nearly three years and see no reason why I need ever have another one. Thanks for your empathy PensivePenny - my episodes were the single most stressful experiences of my life! I thought i was in hell/purgatory during some phases of some episodes, in others I was having to make choices that would condemn me to hell or my loved ones. I am indeed an atheist now and I was an atheist when I had the episodes too.....the agnosticism plus a psychotic delusional imagination gave me hell/god delusions never the less. A hypothetical possibility...there may be a hell...I could just be wrong....I've been wrong before etc.
