I've had it since the year before the pandemic. It's not bad but I've been coping with meds (Abilify and Xanax). Unfortunately, I'm not able to get the meds anymore. Does anyone know with psychosis know what they do?

I suffer from psychosis. I see, hear, and smell things that are not there. I take a plethora of medications to curtail the psychosis. Unfortunately, I still experience episodes.
There was a reoccurring instance where I thought people were breaking into my house. I usually froze in bed unable to move wondering if the robbers would find me waiting hours to no such instance.
It wasn't until I placed my machete next to my bed that it stopped. It is rusty and dull but it is pointy!
For me it is acknowledging what I hear, see, and smell. I tell myself breathe, relax, and usually out loud state you are not real this is just your brain. Plus I can poke the robbers and they can get tetanus.
