Christ_empowered,
It's good to hear that you're noticing what seem to be some benefits from the very high doses of vitamin C that you're taking. I'm also taking vitamin C these days. I've been taking it for about two weeks now, and I'm currently at 2 g. Overall, it seems to be helping with the symptoms that I've been trying to get a handle on for some time now, namely problems with energy, concentration, and sleeping too much. I seem to notice the benefits of vitamin C more at times than at others, but it does seem to be working, at least right now. I will probably try higher doses.
I think that in my case, there might be some synergy between the vitamin D3 that I take and the vitamin C that I take. When I tried vitamin C before I was supplementing with vitamin D3, I actually felt more fatigued after taking the C for two consecutive days. Vitamin C doesn't seem to have that effect on me now that I'm supplementing with vitamin D3.
It's my understanding that vitamin C helps to produce a chemical called tetrahydrobiopterin, which is needed for the synthesis of nitric oxide. This might conceivably produce antipsychotic properties. I haven't noticed any reduction in my "positive" psychotic symptoms since starting vitamin C, though. Have you noticed antipsychotic benefits from taking vitamin C at the dose that you're taking, Christ_empowered?
