I recently exported three years of my ChatGPT history (about ~6,000 user messages) and ran a full NLP + dimensionality reduction + behavioral-state modeling analysis on myself.
Surprisingly, it revealed a clean, interpretable 4-phase oscillation pattern that corresponded almost perfectly to my lived experience including a period of psychosis that showed up as a distinct structural anomaly.
What I learned:
- Stable is the dominant attractor across years.
- Regulated Activation almost always returns to Stable, not High.
- High → High self-loops were concentrated entirely in a 4–5 month period, matching my psychosis timeline.
- Outside that window, High states collapsed back to Stable quickly.
My mind oscillates in a Stable ↔ Regulated Activation cycle most of the time
- Full High states are rare — and normally self-limited
- The long High-state loops occurred only during the psychosis window
- Medication reintroduced the normal oscillatory dynamics

Interested to hear how you determined which state you were in during each conversation/message
