I constantly think in third person: He, “my name”, him, etc. Sometimes I get confused or conclude and think people are talking about me or aliens are reading my mind/observing me.
How do I fix this? Should I practice thinking in first person or second person? Should I journal?
I read that this has to do with impaired theory of mind ( ToM).
Any books/workbooks you guys can recommend?
Pixel doesn’t that he’s aware of.
Before I got sick, when I was younger, I would think in second person like “You” a lot. I always thought first person is healthier and logical. Like if your body is telling you that you are hungry, thinking “I need to eat” seems more logical than “you need to eat”.
I confuse/mix up/misuse “you” and “I” sometimes when speaking. When I write, I know the difference better.
There are thoughts in my head that talk to me and about me. It’s part of the reason I’m having such a hard time about there being supernatural entities entangled with my thoughts. I call them “the beings.”
I guess I got that too. I don’t think they’re beings though.
Well I’ve been trying to convince myself that they’re not real. It doesn’t make any sense, but it’s like, how can my mind be separate from me? How can my thoughts be separate from me? I can’t make sense of what I’m experiencing.
So I guess I’m mulling over it… Beings? Thoughts? Something else altogether?
My thoughts are so disorganized I talk in fourth person which doesnt even exist.
I often refer to it as chaos in my mind. I think that geodon is helping though.
Yes! I thought this was just me. I almost always think “let’s” instead of “let me” and I think “you” instead of “me” or “I” a lot too
When I had the running commentary the voice was talking in 3rd person. Sometimes I refer to myself as we, me and the voices/entities
