Are you on any meds?

Be honest with your psychiatrist, tell them everything.

The imposter delusion is quite common.

You need to be on antipsychotics. Your delusions will go away when you are on the right meds. It can be a little tricky finding the right ones at first.

Try not to snap at family. They are innocent. It’s your brain misfiring making you believe in all kinds of crazy things.

Good luck with your appointment!

thank you! i will take your advice

Not for all of us, but meds make it possible to live with them if they don’t go away.

I hope the hallucinations settle down. I have mainly voices and rarely visuals.

yeah for me they take it from a constant nagging at me and obsession to something in the background that i worry about sometimes.
