Sleep earlyExercise AHAD- Eat OMAD
No Nicorette- Study everyday
I cannot withstand not having Nicorette. So I broke my oath. I am on it again. I was so sleepy that I slept the whole day through.

After going through 3 mental health courses, I realized that my mental illness is not that unique after all. Those things I experienced when I was in psychosis were quite common for people with mental illness.
Also it is true that people with mental illness are more inclined towards religion more than anything else because that is the cognitive bias.
So now I further affirm that mentally ill person is more prone toward false religious beliefs. As it is I assert that religions are not for the mentally ill. That's because we cannot differentiate a fantasized experience and a real one.
If left unattended, a religious experience like the state of trance or even an unsound religious value may lead to mania. In the end, a mentally ill religious person may slip into a world of altered reality.
In conclusion, I decided to stay away from religion and spiritual practices as part of my recovery strategy.
It is my personal opinion that religion in general is a carryover of beliefs and values that are no longer relevant to my life right now. For instance, I don't need a ritual to pray to God. In my opinion if this is an Almighty God, He/She/It doesn't need for us to worship Him/Her/It. All these rituals are social in nature where else praying to God I believe is a personal experience.
Time to move on. No need for me to think about religion anymore. As far as I'm concerned, religion is obsolete.
