Olivia got dosed with LSD by Heather in 2012, the first year of Carlivati and FV's regime. I think the visions started pretty quick.
The painful Sonny/Olivia interval, which IIRC ran for part of 2013, was pretty brief. The idea was that Sonny was awkwardly trying to reunite with the newly-integrated 'Connie'/Kate, as wallflower Olivia quietly pined away for him while wanting to support her entitled cousin. It was all lousy on top of the dreadful DID story but also clearly just a time-filler for Maurice and LLC, the latter of whom Ron obviously liked a lot. Sonny felt totally marginalized at that moment. I believe Brenda came back in the middle of that for the NB and it was utterly implausible to me that Sonny would still be giving either Falconeri woman the time of day with her on the scene lol. And I say that as someone who has a lot of love for Lisa and Olivia, especially at that time. I think it fizzled out when Sonny started making mob moves again to Olivia's horror (shocker!) and they threaded him into the A.J. mess and got him back with Carly. The character has of course not recovered from murdering A.J.
And yeah, I think Psychic Olivia was one of a number or Carlivati camp flourishes the network clamped down once he was ousted, along with the endless kid quad (Spencer/Emma/Cameron/Joss, and nary an actor among them!) he was forced to stop before being fired. I'd still bring her visions back!
