This is what 'while' is made for:

def text():
     while True:
         mess = input("> ")
         s.send(bytes("PRIVMSG " + " "+ channel + " " +  mess  + "\n", 
"UTF-8"))


The recursive solution you used works at first but stops working with 
RecursionError when the maximum recursion depth is exceeded.
