Do you feel possessed?

I am feeling possessed right now, don’t feel like myself, thinking not my thoughts, just want this feeling to pass. I just want to feel like myself. I am afraid of bad thoughts.

I feel like I was literally possessed all my life and I suffered the consequences too. I feel today that I am no longer possessed.

I get random pop-up thoughts that don’t feel like they’re mine, sometimes, but it seems to be from brain inflammation.

I sometimes catch myself thinking weird thoughts in a semi-conscious state right before waking up too. Kind of like dreaming, but I’m spouting strange trains of thought in my mind.

I developed some physical tics during my worst episode that went with the voices. The voices would say “do the sign of the indigent” and my hands would compulsively clasp together and I’d rub them back and forth like I’m trying to keep warm by a barrel fire. I hated it but I was compelled as if by OCD, like scratching an itch.

I lost of all of those tics except one, when I’m stressed my right hand makes an a-okay sign, curling thumb to meet forefinger. I used to identify this as possession and would get really mad. I guess it was just tics. Since they are so rare these days I don’t get mad as often.

Yes, about half the time if not more. What you describe is what’s in my head.

thanks.

There’s probably a name for it! I’ve often had issues with sense of self. I think that can be pretty common.

Tell your doc. Always more informative!

Probably delusion of control.
I have it too sometimes.
For example Thoughtless, an hebephrenic voice I have, controls my words, my gestures, my grimaces etc

Alien does this to me sometimes. Been a while though as my meds help but sometimes he throws a thought into my head that’s his not mine

I feel like a different person than I used to be. The meds help. I was having thoughts I didn’t even think I could think!

At times I feel as if there are two wills in my mind. It’s like the will of the person who isn’t writing this wants to subdue the will of the one writing this and make one will of the two.

LouiseG, me too.
