Mental health advocates when someone has a disorder that is relatively harder to romanticize
Psychosis feels like the line between your thoughts and experiences is thin, or nonexistent. You can't tell if it actually happened, or is happening, or if it's a delusion again.
Psychosis feels like not being able to trust if you're experiencing something "real"- even if it tangibly is by nonpsychotics.
Psychosis feels like something is "off" constantly- maybe in the air, maybe intrinsically within you -that other people don't notice.
Psychosis feels like everyone else has their shit together but you- and they're refusing to tell you how.
Psychosis feels like the entire way you view yourself is distorted. It feels like being disjointed, out of proportion, discoloured. Like a fever dream you can't understand.
-> Of course, this is based on our own experiences. Other people may not feel the same.

I feel guilty to be a somewhat harmful stereotype of schizospec people, despite being myself schizospec.
I see many posts on here trying to fight against the received idea that schizospec people can't love, even in times of (quasi-)psychosis; which is great, and I heavily agree with the gist of it.
But for me, that is not true. I don't feel love; sexual, romantic, platonic, familial, animals and pets, even most objects... Every type of love that one can experience for another being, I am, at best, lacking of it.
It took me a while to acknowledge it, mainly because I am caring and warm towards others, even if I rarely feel it. Same with empathy, I have fluctuating/low/no emotional empathy; but I do have high cognitive empathy, high sympathy, and high compassion. I guess that it makes me mask all of it well... Another thing may be because I experience obsession and dependency, which may look like love, but isn't.
I guess that some people here relate to that, and some others that do, but that cannot mask that; whether it is by only being schizospec, or by other comorbid disorder(s). In any case, you are valid and matter as much as those who do love!!
I feel that this experience is just the opposite of: 《feeling (deep) love but being unable to care (, to even be unable to want to care)》 often seen in Cluster B PDs { AsPD-BPD-HPD-NPD]
