hi all,i tried writing a very long post just before but it wouldn’t let me post for some reason.so this is going to be shorter hopefully because I need some sleep 
.I was diagnosed with chronic paranoid schizophrenia.i take clopixol injections 350mg and also take up to 600 sometimes 800mg a day of instant release Seroquel…i cant go without Seroquel otherwise I have these really bad panic attacks with voices.iam going to save you the drama about how all these things came about…I will try and keep it short…i was a revolving door patient for years…i was 18 when I was first hospitalized,iam now 26.i was on overnight leave from the hospital and I was watching tvbwhen all of a sudden I felt like I was connected with everyone on the planet…i could hear my thought ripple throughout the earth…even the news reporter said what the hell is going on…skip to 2013…i was watching a football game…Australia versus England and it happened again…i could hear information or one thought being passed to and fro…and even the commentators were becoming aware of this saying "that’s exactly what I’m thinking…this is strange"their words seemed to confirm the thought that was being passed to and fro…cut a very long story short it was like a mental uprising…the game began to be a mental war…we also have a show here in Australia called the footy show,retired NRL football players are the hosts…i remember my first name being repeated through peoples minds and the host said my name on the show and said "doesn’t he careabout the children in hospital?"and I forget what else he said…I thought the government and the queen wanted me dead…i eventually called the police and I was hospitalized…in short the host of the show actually said my name and started abusing me…his face was scarlet red…has anyone hallucinated that the tv actually talked directly to them?? cheers
I’m not sure mine were exactly like that but when for example, on the News the broadcasters stare forward, I feel like they’re trying to communicate to me and it freaks me out a bit. Ever since on meds, I’ve felt it’s gotten less and less, thankfully, but it was unsettling!
I used to think the news people could see me and they were laughing at me, also there were shows I thought they were sending me messages
Yes I have had these delusions but not as much as radio/musical delusions.
what happened to me was like it was like it was so real…the mind is a powerful thing…
i’ve had this delusion it was quite intense
please share what happened
sorry…that might have seemed like an odd question…this is the first time ive talked to people on the net besides facebook…lol…i was just curious to see if more similar to mine
odd thing to ask i mean
This happens to me. Very severely. I can’t turn on a television without feeling connected. Wish they would stop, I’ve lost my will to live.
i was aware that recorded tv programs were ok ,however live tv broadcasts i was getting messages from the news readers as if i was reading their body language in some way
Same. They make me feel a certain way about each story. If I deviate from the emotional script, they torture me. So I avoid anything broadcasting live.
I watched a late night news cast once… the man looked like my grandpa…who looks like the diabetes spokesman… it was a quick run down on the importance of microchips in modern society… but it went from informative to threats… and had cuss words… the man said any country who didn’t fall in line with the microchip makers wishes would have their regions chips turned off rendering them instantly a 3rd world country…and defenseless to intercontinental ballistic smart missiles… and wrapped it up by saying all we ask is you convert your young and elderly to our system…
no one else saw this… no one else is worried about microchips in this way… I must assume it was a very good hallucination… I haven’t had a tv hallucination before or since,
Sure, I’m sure that hallucinations with the tv are common. I recomend you record the tv show and play it back later when you’re not psychotic. Has a bit of shock and awe effect
it only happened once… it also had multi camera angles and the actor didn’t mess up any of his lines… so atleast the production value was decent on my hallucination news cast…
aT different points in my life tv has put ideas in my head where i thought the message was just for me. REally scary.
I used to have the thing with the TV talking to me. I thought shows were being changed to match my thoughts or my life story. It was pretty cool sometimes and a horror others.
I’ve had a similar experience as others in this thread. I feel connected to the people in any live broadcasts, whether they are on TV or streaming on the internet. It’s like we are communicating in code, through body language, and emotions. It can even happen to me even if I have paused the live broadcast and am playing it through a delay but it’s not as intense. It’s also not as real to me with a delay because I realize it isn’t live which means they simply can’t be communicating with me during the delay. I also can sometimes hear the crowds during live sporting events yelling things at me. Most of the time, none of this is direct and something is either said that relates to what’s happening in my life or ends up being some sort of code I’m deciphering in my quest to prove this is real. Other times it can be direct to me, but rarely. I think the worst thing to do is to try and prove it’s real, because that’s when you start to hallucinate and think it is. However, I’ve never visually hallucinated anything on TV or anywhere else really.
The Office used to be my go-to show to cheer me up. Then when I watched it, the characters seemed to be coming out of the screen like 3D, and right in my face. I had to take a break from TV, after that.
I’m also too paranoid to watch TV much, anymore. I feel like there is a lot of subliminal messages and mind control that happens through the tv, and one has to be a VERY mentally strong person to withstand it, which I am not.
I have felt attacked and hated by people on tv that wanted to keep me away from socialising or being updated with what’s going on and were jealous of me .
Even a news presenter who was lying and attacking me.
She was clearly jealous of me.
