I just can't shake the feeling

That everything is a movie set.
With a button, sun shines, with another button, rain falls, wind blows etc. Matrix and truman show, solipsism, video game. Anyway, fake.
Any advice?

APs is the answer? Or therapy?

Some people, sane people, say “so what?”.
But I can’t say that too. For me it’s something urgent that needs an answer.
It’s burning inside me

What if my pdoc is part of the plot and he suggests to calm down and not act against the programmers and the directors of the reality show?

Could anyone help??

Am I repetitive? Boring? I always complain about the same stuff. Over and over.
I just can’t overcome this idea

I’m sorry you still have these feelings after being on APs.

They’re not true,

This is real life.

I think you should get into therapy soon as you can.

It might help to kind of talk these things out and have someone guide you.

You could always increase the Clozapine dose. You’re on a really low dose right now.

Sorry you’re still suffering @Om_Sadasiva

Do you doubt your theory or not? Do you always believe it is true?

It is tough luck if the medications aren’t working.

What I suggest is that, get a therapist.

I couldn’t doubt my narrative at first, then I doubted it slightly, and so on. Then I got to know what MPD is like. This is when I realized that it was the brain that was tricking me all the while.
When I became well, I still couldn’t doubt the whole narrative. So, sometimes, I just doubt the individual pieces of the whole narrative. It is, to practice doubt. I am getting better and better. Now I have more and more doubt.

Yes, it’s a low dose of clozapine.
I think the highest dose is 900mg.

I believe it, yes.

But do you doubt it sometimes?

No, never. You?

No, the more I doubt, the better I get.

The better I get, the more I doubt.

Which way it works, I don’t know. But I guess it is a loop, a bit of both.

I don’t think the medications are still providing me benefit. In fact doses have reduced slightly.

But, despite the reduction in the dose because of side effects, I am doubting myself more and more

But if it’s so convincing and realistic, you can’t doubt it.

You could try to make yourself believe it is not true. Like when you see an illusion or a magic trick, it seems true.

But you make yourself believe it is not true.

What is convincing? What is happening inside your mind?
