Ditto. How long has it been happening to you?
Isn’t it crazy how narcisstic psychosis is? Everything is about you you you all the time.
And yeah I’ve experienced things like that, in the form of thinking songs, tv shows, movies, books, etc were being used to send messages to me from different entities or God.

This happened to me in the past. At first, it was annoying, then it was flattering, then I thought I had an altruistic purpose with my books… now I’m much better and it has been months since I felt it for the last time.
I don’t spend hours looking for cameras because I know it’s futile. There are too many. Plus I have a camera in my eye so they can see everything I see. I was very depressed today because I am trapped in this show and they are controlling my brain. It’s gotta be the cruelest thing you could ever do to a human soul; Control their brain, set them up for a life of misery and then capture every moment. It’s sadistic. Sadly, I believe that is my life and even worse I signed up for it at some point. I just don’t remember.
About 4 or 5 years now. Trying to fix it mentally, internally.
Yeah especially people coughing.
What does coughing signify? I am bothered by people coughing too
Stay strong and take comfort in knowing you’re not the only one trapped in a show.

Everyone has their own “show”. What it signifies to you isn’t what it signifies to someone else.
Thanks Kaiju. If I ever want your opinion I’ll be sure to ask for it next time.
You did ask. What it signifies I mean.
My shrink used to call it self-referential thinking. When you think a bumper sticker is about you, that’s out and out psychotic, but if you hear two people talking and you think, “They’re probably talking about me,” because you’re self-conscious or if you hear a laugh and think someone’s laughing at you, that’s not, not unless you’re dead-sure.
It seems to have faded over the years with me. I used to experience it even when I was reasonably well medicated. I used to feel tuned into everything, constantly .“Hyper-vigilance” was my shrink’s term. The two faded in tandem. In later years, when I discussed it with him in its milder forms, he referred to it as “struggling with ideas of reference.”
In other words, it’s likely to get better.

I like the phrase “hyper-vigilance”. It’s definitely like that.
