Delusion & paranoia

I keep having the delusion of falling through the ground and the paranoia of it happening any second. Any wrong step, and I could be swallowed up by a sink hole. And worse it’s going to happen to my house with my family in it. I’m scared.

I planned a trip to Niagara Falls for my family last week. I know it was a big deal for them to go in the tunnels behind the falls. So I bought tickets. And arranged transportation. And we went. The entire time I just kept envisioning the tunnels start to crack and collapse around me. I had terrible sweats and my breathing was horrible but I’d say I kept it together at least enough for no one (other than my husband) to notice.

Sorry I don’t have any words of encouragement or advice. So I thought I’d just relate. Delusions and paranoia are so hard to live with. :heart:

Thank you. That must have been so terrifying. I’m looking forward to the day we can no longer feel this way.

Before I was medicated, I used to have the same issue, sort of…like I’d feel as though the ground was falling out from beneath me or was going to. It was disorienting to say the least.

It sounds very scary, consoled with the knowledge that it will not happen and the delusion will pass you the way they always do (and change into another delusion :disappointed: …)

For every argument someone gives me (ie; my husband or friends) to combat one of my delusions I can give them logical and factual evidence to contradict them. That’s my main issue- freak accidents happen. What the heck do I do with that?
