Back when I was delusional I would go to a grocery store and when I would pick out drinks to buy, I would never choose the one at the front. I thought someone opened it and poisoned it. So for example, I would open the fridge, take the first and sometimes the second drink in line out, then grab the 3rd drink and thats the one I would buy and drink…
Fun times lol.
During. Covid I’d always wash the lid of the pop or iced coffee u bought but that’s fully rational imo
Yup 
Did it get better?
No, but when I was in jail I thought they were poisoning the food so many of my trays I just threw away. I lost a lot of weight. Fortunately I eventually got out, was given my medicine again once freed, came to my senses, and ate again.
Yeah it did get better. I don’t do it anymore.
I’m sorry you went to jail man. I know you’re a good guy though, so I don’t judge.
When I was in hospital for the first time, they had vending machines. I thought my super powers were enabling me to pick out the safe products from the machines.
I have had something similar. I thought my sodas were secretly poisoned.
I didn’t attack anyone, i broke a table in a hotel because my voices told me to
Classic jailed for being sick situation
They dropped all the charges after letting me spend 5 months in solitary waiting for trial
So like, in my opinion I kind of got the bad end of that deal
It was a long time ago though so I don’t think about it often. I just wish the jail system wasn’t used in cases where the mental health system should be instead. Also they need to give medicine to people jailed who are on meds. They refused to medicate me even though I begged them daily and told them my illness was the reason I was even jailed. They just said “yeah yeah” and ignored everything I said.
5 months for breaking a table? That’s ridiculous
I wasn’t sane enough to understand how to bail myself out, because they wouldn’t give me the medicines I was on
But yeah I had a bunch of symptoms there since I was unmedicated during my time there. The food being poisoned was a major one, I thought it was true because I had these tactile hallucinations of tingling after eating.
I’ve heard stories of people in jail not being given their Xanax or Ativan and they died from withdrawl in their cell.
I never did that. Sounds like OCD. Maybe? Maybe food paranoia?
Oh how awful! 15
ive done it. still do it sometimes.
Yeah. I didn’t trust it. I got the one in the back. That’s ok. I’m sure no one wants hurt you. I wish I could say the same.
