I am so scared somebody is going to come kill me!

Do you think it could be a microphone?

Turn your tv off. Listen to some music :notes:
Your favorite music. Listen to it loud enough to drown out the voices. Keep your dr. Appt
He is trying to help you with your meds and needs to know when they don’t work so he can get you on a medication that will help you and relieve you.

I have thought broadcasting, and my band-aid solution is to just stop listening to TV where more than one person talks at a time. I don’t hallucinate over one person talking. Only when someone talks over him/her.

It happens all over tv for me.

Thought broadcasting isn’t t.v.

It’s when you have a thought unexpressed
That someone close to you completes.

They complete what you might have said but didn’t.

Go to your doctor tomorrow! You need to go!! This is not real! There are no cameras or microphones on you! You are not on tv! The world isn’t against you! No one is trying to kill you! You are sick or ill whichever word you prefer! Very sick! You need either different meds or a different dosage! Do the reality check questions. This has been going on for a long time! We want you to get better!

I have the kind of thought broadcasting where people, in real life or on live TV, appear to read my thoughts and respond to them.

It’s only when you have a thought not expressed that they say on the off shoot. They don’t respond to your thoughts they complete them verbally.

Maybe for you.

I’ve had full-blown conversations with the TV using my thoughts. It’s not something I’m proud of, it’s just the kind of delusion I’m experiencing.

I thought the same thing for like a year then I stopped thinking it and nobody came to kill me, the whole thing passed and now I’m just bored every day playing video games and watching YouTube. I outlived like all the fears and now life is a bland thing like it used to be. It’s great not to be constantly worried.

If you can, try to work towards insight and recovery, life is better when the delusions go away. I had to try many different medicines before that symptom stopped. Nobody’s talking about you or trying to kill you, and they never will be. Nobody will ever show up at the door to confirm your suspicions, and no news man is gonna suddenly read your name out loud on his broadcast. That confirmation moment never comes.

Did you go and see your doctor?

No I wasn’t able to :pensive:

That’s too bad. You should have gone.

Why aren’t you able to? Can you not get a cab? Do you not have anyone in your life to help you? Or are you scared of finding out the truth? Somethings gotta give on your end. You are not well. Unless you are Trump you are not being targeted or on tv. No there’s no microphone!

Something that helped me when stuff like that would happen is I stopped watching tv for awhile, I only listened to music and watched certain youtube videos so I didn’t have to worry that anyone was talking about me. Also sometimes if you feel super bad and you think people are talking about you, try and actually join their conversation or get close enough to really hear it so your brain doesn’t assume you’re being talked about.

I hope you feel better soon!

I’m so scared… I think I’m going to die. But no I didn’t have a ride there and I was scared that someone will kill me on my way there.
