that’s something to be aware of—intense stress, including about world events, can induce psychosis (and other altered states). psychosis may not be as unfamiliar of a brain state as you might expect if you haven’t experienced it before; it could feel very weird, but it also could seem like everyone else is failing to take a situation seriously. when in doubt, consider talking to someone who knows how to recognize it. it’s hardly catastrophic, and it’s generally quite recoverable, as long as you don’t do anything crazy and irreversible.
