Yeah I had psychosis during my mania in April/May 2020. I thought people on the internet where talking to me including fictional cartoons, and had a bunch of delusions like thinking I would meet some internet people I had never even talked to at the airport along with someone I had a crush on in highschool. I also thought I had died and had been sent to hell, that all humanity was becoming immortal, and that I was leading a revolution against the government. I lost my job over the psychosis.
