i feel as if my thoughts are being broadcasted to people around me, its a very horrible experience, the feeling of having no privacy to my own thoughts, in time and out of fear, as a defense mechanism i developed very negative thoughts, i am now broadcasting very negative, rude, sometimes sexually themed thoughts and also racist thoughts. i was not like this at all prior to my first psychotic break, what am i to do? please help me?

More like they put a thought in to me and say it is mine but it is them and they put emotions etc as well.
Take the medications your prescribed. It’s a positive symptom of psychotic illness. It’s just how your brain is interpreting the world with some faulty brain chemistry. It isn’t magical it just is.
Always good to let your health team know about these things. It’s not good to suffer! You may need a medication adjustment!

I found that when I do things that reduce inflammation, like eating only fruit and veg, avoiding wheat and dairy and sugar, and taking anti-inflammatories like Boswellia, I get more “psychic privacy”, where I don’t feel like my thoughts are being broadcasted nearly as much. Seems like brain inflammation is the culprit. Antipsychotics are known to reduce inflammation biomarkers also.
It’s still an ongoing battle, especially dietwise, since so many tasty foods have some wheat or dairy or sugar in it.

I suffered from thought broadcasting but in my virtual world, not the real one. I spent a lot of time getting virtual bugs out of my apt and brain.
I think a certain part of you has to recognize it as a delusion and break the fear you have of it for the sake of functioning. Fear of these delusions is often what keeps us trapped into obsessing over them
maybe the longer this goes on you will relax and get more comfortable with your thoughts, positive or negative
