Do you have delusions of reference?

I get them all the time. I find “secret messages” from the government on tv, in books, on signs, labels, everywhere. It is quite frightening. How many people suffer from this?

The only time something like that happened was around the time I first got symptoms and I was walking and passed a trash can by a curb and it said something on the top and with the way the snow was on it it looked like it said hell and I thought it meant I was going to hell.

if someone laughs near me I think they’re laughing at me. I thought I conquered this delusion long ago but it came back and it’s especially strong at work where rude soldiers really do laugh at people.

Medicines help me but they don’t really help much with this issue, so I just try to ignore them. I’ve been thinking of getting a rise on my dosage though.

I take clozapine and I’m on 600mg. Not sure if that’s considered a large dose.

Sometimes. Sometimes I think I’m meant to be a influential person because of the supernatural (god) but then I do my best to ignore these delusional thoughts

There’s no way there’s a spirit telling me I’m going somewhere in life, if I go anywhere it’s because I put effort into things

I don’t know if this is relevant or not but my gma noticed a yard sign across our road that wasn’t there earlier I thought it was letting someone know where my home was… It turned out to be a wedding sign to a country church.

Sounds like one to me. Do you get these often?

People laughing, engines revving, and how people act around me is how I experience it. It was always one of my strongest symptoms. That and thought broadcasting. I’m doing better since getting on perphenazine. It’s still there though.

when psychotic I generally think things are about me.

Car alarms give me messages too. Little things like car alarms, doors closing, laughing etc are miniature ways for people to tell me they think I’m a loser.

It’s not true though. If someone is closing their door to send you a negative message are lifeless losers. People have better things to do.

I’m on clozapine and looking to increase my dose.
