I am finding it really hard to live normally. I’m worried that I am cursed. Does anyone else experience this?
Welcome to this forum Its just a delusion! Do you take any meds? Are you dx with sz or other psychotic related ilness? Define to live normally?
My advice is to consider that a warning sign of sz etc. and to be extremely careful about recreational drug use and antisocial behavior which could worsen the disease. That is difficult because the symptoms you are describing could make a person want to do those things.
Live normally is continue to work at this great job I just got without thinking I have the power to make people sick.
You cant make people sick! It is a delusion. What good job do you work in? Again: Do you take meds? Because this is important @BrittanyFaith !
Thanks. It totally does, but my body won’t let me do them. I have really bad hangovers and my throat hurts if I try to smoke. It’s just depressing and makes me want to hide.
Hey Brittany i apologize if i seemed harsh with you. I thought something is missing thats why i asked you twice if you take any meds. My advice for you is try to exercise to get rid of these negative thoughts you have. Peace
Yes it’s hard to find a date
Do you have a job?
Lol no just school right now
What are you in school for? Do you really think you can make people cough with your thoughts? It would be really relieving to know I’m not the only one.
People cough to clear the air, to change how they feel to clear their throat, to say they want to talk. But you are there and can get the message, do you ever hear a voice ‘say something’.?? ‘Keep it going’, ‘now is your chance’ coaches in the background gently pushing. You may be surprised at what will happen if you do. Unspoken communication.
Sometimes before I realize to say what I’m thinking out loud it already happens. I’ll work on it, though. Thanks.
You’re making bad connections. I know how it is when you’re deep into the schizophrenia hole. I am only 5-6 months out of it thanks to Amyloban 3399 on top of antipsychotics, and I am only recently feeling that people aren’t coughing or sneezing at my thoughts.
you sound like a hard worker @ brittany. so ready to get well. so ready to take correction. but i was not correcting you. just trying to help you understand. you are pretty bright , you understand and trusted me.
good qualities. take it from an old guy. me too i go into a restaurant and everything i think somebody says before i can. and it escalates . but its just me thinking. what else could it be?! has any one ever said such a thing to you about it before.
Its a distortion of the real thing. not really happening.
I used to play childish mind-games in the pub and yawn loudly, whilst watching others start to yawn as well cos of me. Its true - its catching! lol.
Hello @BrittanyFaith - welcome!
You are not cursed; I think this is a delusion. And certainly, you are not alone. I also have a number of delusions.
