How to induce schizophrenia?

Sleep deprivation. You don't even need that much just like 3 days straight or so of no sleep, not even a nap. The third day is about when audiovisual hallucinations can occur. Some sources say up to 5 days some say as little as 1 day. I personally saw weird shit at 3 days.

You'll see shadow people move around the corners of your eyes and hear people talking around you. It's deeply unsettling.

Sleep deprivation isn’t permanent and my body will enter a shutdown state inevitably, kind of like trying to hold your breath and passing out before breathing normally again. I need some kind of neurochemical that will prolong the episode.

It’ll also be hard to string up my corkboard if I’m sleepy all the time.

I’ve done that it doesn’t work. I tripped for 36 hours and then just fried my brain for a month.

One approach is through substance use. Cannabis, Amphetamines, Cocaine or Hallucinogens.

The issue with all drugs is that they have a tendency to get flushed out of the system. I imagine most of those schizoaffective symptoms are from the physical degradation of brain matter over long period use. I need like a protein or special molecule that activates the fun part of my receptors permanently.

Just do some Ayahuasca every day with your breakfast. Guaranteed to plug you into the bizzaro universe permanently.
Edit: Sorry you need to be doing ayahuasca every two hours, like Connor did.

I thought ayahuasca made you vomit almost the entire time. How the fuck is he 1. using it every 2hrs 2. Finding enough to do that?

Spice/K2/synthetic cannabinoids can cause extended periods of psychosis, a month or longer. Here's an overview article (so a lot of links to its sources in footnotes).

It's a cheap and legal way to use up local emergency medical resources, so maybe consider whether you're the kind of person who can keep it together long enough to go live in the woods and not get the cops called on you by local do-gooders.

Get a cable network news subscription to whichever poison you fancy - The product has been refined over the course of decades to be utterly incompatible with positive mental health. If you can't afford a TV subscription, the budget version is to get some of those reading glasses from the grocery store and write "wrong" on each lens (the side you look through).

If that doesn't work, then try to make sense of the life of any morbidly obese black person you're liable to encounter in public. Just find their social media and start reading. You will gradually get the sense that the entire world collectively chose to go insane without telling you. Your constitution should continue to deteriorate from there.
