I just can't shake the feeling

I’m convinced that it’s a reality show or a computer program or both, somehow

What is a reality show or a computer program?

One thing I should mention is that the fact that you converse on this forum and seek help means that you have some doubt. When you are telling me, “I am convinced” in this theory, then you are also convinced that I am real and engaging you

I can tell you that when a person is going through a complete episode, he has no doubt. He doesn’t want to seek help. Because, all the things that are true to him are actually false.

I mean the fact that you are medication compliant implies that you have doubt. You are seeking treatment because you have doubt.

I don’t have doubts.
I show the programmers that I know.
That’s why I made this thread

I get it. You are not talking to me, but to the programmers indirectly?

Yes, cos you are part of this thing.
Everyone is a part of this.
I show the middle finger to the ceiling and i shout “i know your game”

What would you get out of telling them that you know they are doing it?

If they are doing it actually, they will do it more.

Maybe you are trying to show others that “they” are doing it?

Why are you looking for a therapist? If “they” are doing it?

This is not to say by any means that you shouldn’t engage a therapist.

You should, but my point is that you fundamentally recognize it is the illness.

That is the first part of the treatment process.

Cos I have 2% doubt.
And I would do anything to forget this idea.
Maybe therapy could teach me how to forget it.
I believe it’s true

Actually I wanted you people to persuade me to think of this idea as delusion.
I wish it was a delusion

Do the voices come from ceiling? My ceiling voices stopped after I quit drinking coffee. Now I just have mild thought broadcasting.

No, not from the ceiling. I just show the middle finger to all programmers of the matrix or to the directors of the reality show

 Its that strength of believing that keeps you ill.  because it is a delusion.  You are a powerful individual and you have freedom of choice.  But it doesn't seem like it because you defend the delusion to everyone.  Let go of it,  you hate the cause of it.  There are not any programmers only you feeling that something from above is invading you.  You are spontaneous and your stuff comes from within- your choice, your mind.  Your confused and saying what your first impression is.  But first impressions are often wrong.  What do you do when you are beside a pretty girl.  That is from within.  There is no form or rule to follow.  You feel good and warm and loose.  Think how big a computer would have to be to control every thought of the 7 billion  plus people here.  And you have no receiver put in just a mind that feels wrongly, not whats real.    I'm convinced that this delusion is keeping you ill.  You don't want to be free.  Maybe your saying look what I have done so far and you look at yourself.  But if you stop saying they are doing it to me and start thinking for your self you will see life produced.
 Have you done something terrible ??

A big portion of schizophrenics have this belief, but it takes time and treatment to break out of it. I had it at one point, but now I firmly believe there is an objective, real world going on outside of my delusions.

Sometimes I seem to get little “secret messages” that something else is going on, like my life is a show that people “sometimes” are watching, but for the most part I’m noticing people living their own lives, doing their own things, completely outside of my reality, and I’m merely peeking in to their affairs from time to time with the internet, and rarely, in person.

Guys, i don’t know. I woke up with anxiety about the dreams I had. Now i hear some evil voices.
The birds sing outside, is it a computer program?

I know you all will say “no it’s your psychosis talking” but what if you play your role?

Should I call my psychiatrist?

Have you tried risperidone or invega?
