Am I a big social media joke?

I did a lot of bad things. I feel a lot of people know who I am. I have thoughts that people on social media are keeping of track of everything and want people to troll me.

That sounds like paranoia to be honest. I’m not sure social media is a healthy place to be anyway.

Definetely a bit of paranoia then. I wouldn’t worry too much about social media especially if you’re not even on it.

I thought a person made a joke about me today. The only way I rationalized it is with social media.

Ah, I see. That’s classic paranoia. Everyone has a blip from time to time though. I hope it passes for you soon.

I think that thought happens to many us. if you think you were bad what about those who would troll you? no better, possibly worse. consider that when paranoid. I mean any group that would go after one for little is much worse. take comfort in that. if you were sick and said some things forgive yourself, if they can’t they are the sick ones.

Thanks @finally. I am paranoid. I shouldn’t dwell on it. Really it doesn’t have much of a basis.

No hon, you aren’t a joke. This is paranoia. I get this sometimes too. I think people have bugged my house and phone and are using it to make fun of me on the Internet somewhere. This is our illness messing with us. It’s not real. I hope you feel better soon.

I still have a delusion that people are keeping tabs on my life “out there”, via thought broadcasting. It certainly feels reel, and the gossip outside sometimes feels like it applies to me (like I’ve been physically outright sworn out repeatedly by someone after I had an intrusive thought, the guy was calling me fag and such, physically unprovoked, and I was dressed absolutely normally too).

I’m hoping the thought broadcasting delusion is resolved with low-dose Abilify, like I’ve read it has for numerous other forum-dwellers. The magic is in its NMDA antagonistic properties.

I developed thought broadcasting, among other schizophrenic symptoms by abusing Piracetam, which upregulates NMDA receptors greatly, and those receptors have been hypothesized to have a lot to do with schizophrenia. So to me, the answer is simple, I over-regulated those receptors, and now I have to block them with an antagonist, to feel normal.

Maybe in the future some kind of means of safely down-regulating those receptors can be found, for a more permanent cure.
