Is it delusion?
I experienced a cannabis-induced psychosis seven months ago. I have since stopped consuming cannabis. For the most part, I used it simply out of boredom. In an effort to channel my time into something beneficial for my future, I discovered trading and resolved to learn it. I fully realize that this is not a get-rich-quick scheme, and I am prepared to invest both time and energy into it. My goal is simply to be able to treat myself to nice things every now and then down the road, and to gain a bit more independence. In any case, I am afraid that if I delve deeper into this subject, I might once again lose touch with reality and that the idea that I can actually succeed at this is nothing more than a grandiose delusion of my own making. This fear is compounded by the fact that I am already an introvert by nature, and trading involves spending a great deal of time alone, staring at screens. I have purchased books on the subject and have already learned a fair amount, yet I remain hesitant to pursue it further even though it genuinely interests me, and I would love to figure out how to make a living from it.
