I got a lot of delusions. Especially:
Delusions with thinking people can "read" my thoughts.
Delusions with feeling that people take pictures and videos of me at night outside my windows.
Delusions with having a perception of people wanting to see me fail or wanting to fuck me over.
Delusions with people saying evil stuff about me, that they obivously never would say.
Delusions with absolutely knowing that every girl I see thinks Im insanely attractive.
But the thing that confuses me, after reading on this subreddit is that. MY delusions doesnt ruin my life. Sure they are annoying AF and take my life on long ass detours to my end goals. But it aint like they completely screw me over.
I feel like either im subconsciously faking my delusions, or else people on here talking bout their delusions ruining their lives are weak humans and overreacting.
Are delusions overstigmatized as being "life ruining"?
Or am I faking my delusions?
Or are people just overreacting?
My delusions are pretty much exactly like yours. They typically get bad in a mixed episode, and are at their worst when I’m going through a psychotic episode. They feel real to me then, and when it’s over I feel ridiculous. I think that’s just the rational part of our brain waking up after hibernating without our permission.

Right?!?! I’m only only a danger to myself in a depressive episode (SelfH), and a manic episodes (dangerous impulsivity whether it be sexual, financial, or an adrenaline thrill). But when I’m in a mixed episode it’s everyone for themselves, and everyone better run if they know what’s good for them 😱
