I find this simulation very accurate. It’s exactly like my delusions, except I don’t hear voices, I believe people are inserting thoughts in my head. What do you guys think? I also believe people on tv are talking about me.

Add psychedelic visuals and it’s accurate to me. ---

Mine are pretty bad. Everywhere I go I have delusions of reference, no matter what I doing. ---

Personally the worst thing about my disorder before I was medicated was hearing voices exactly like in this video. The video scares me by taking me back. I’m glad I’m not in that position anymore. ---

I’m still fighting. I’m just afraid that if I ignore the “voices” me and my family will be hurt. ---

I’m confused, i thought you didn’t hear voices? are you talking about intrusive thoughts? I used to have thoughts about harming my family, those were separate from voices. Are you on medication for it? I had to try like 6 different antipsychotics before i landed on one that works. ---

I have OCD and I get a million thoughts like this. “Center the radio dial or you’ll get cancer”, blah blah… ignore it and nothing will happen and your brain will start tossing those thoughts in the trash. ---

That’s why I put “voices” in quote marks because I can’t hear them, but they are inserted into my brain. I guess they’re called “thought insertion.” ---

Yes I’m on meds. It’s gradual but I’m getting better slowly. ---

Oh that’s rough. I’m sorry you’re suffering like that. I hope it gets better. My first 3 years with this disorder were terrible but it slowly got better along with treatment until I got to a point where most days I’m okay. I’ve got a brother with it who refuses treatment though and I think he’s suspended in a state of suffering, but I can’t seem to convince him to take medicine. ---

Same here. It’s a slow process but I’m much much better than I was ten years ago. I was in and out of hospitals. I’m just afraid something bad will happen if I ignore them long enough. My delusions tell me that big corrupt businessmen want me to pay attention to them because they’re basically using me to be a walking advertisement. They make a zoo animal out of me.
