There’s a hidden camera on the pole outside the house
Reality is just some weird video game that goes back to the start eventually and you have to try again.
I think I’ve managed to talk myself out of #2, the video game. Basically I told myself if that was the case for everyone then there would be no start to go back to as everyone would be changing things.
But even though I know the hidden camera delusion is classic schizophrenia, it looks like knowledge is no defence.
It’s such a strong feeling.
Has anyone any tips on overcoming the hidden camera delusion?
tell yourself everywhere you go in public there are cameras. even on your neighbors doorbells usually. i know it sounds like that isnt helpful but once you accept theres cameras everywhere you might not find it so scary that there is one outside of your house.
i can relate some cause my main delusion is that I’m being hacked and they are watching and listening to everything I say and at times that they are storing my thoughts on a computer somewhere. Medicine has helped 95% though. I couldn’t even talk about this a month ago on here and it’s been going on for years.
I remember like the days when I pee if someone looks I can’t pee. Due to all eyes watching me.
But now I can do it in open.
But yes I will restore my morals.
But still. The tip to over come to truly believe and trust bad things will happen to bad people period.
I will illustrate with an example:
I believe or trust I am spying on you because you are special. When I believe this, then when I am special obviously I need to believe others are too spying on me. But it doesn’t not work this way.
Its after all how one carries out belief for ones own desire.
You wish is my command is what my brain always recite to me back.
So when I wish for being special and the only alternative option to feel special is people watching me. I think it didn’t come out in a right sentence.
I ment to say was:
I have a 100gms of diamond. And for sure if I am informed I need to travel with this, through a territory of tugs.
My auto response would be someone is gonna harm me and take away the 100gm diamond .
Therefore here the diamond is dopamine which make me think special about self. And the thugs are watching my every move.
So to get out of the spy camera is to believe dopamine is just a miss balance. Which make me believe I am special due to the thought which a normal human doesn’t get.
Fat chance there’s a “hidden” camera. While cameras themselves can be common in public, a hidden one would be too expensive and not worth the added cost, especially given the effort and knowledge required to set one up. Plus, what’s the point? A random camera to view a random guy in his apartment? No chance they would set something like that up unless you’re a terrorist or something lol.
Might help to remember that the cameras they set up at intersections are visible too. I don’t think you have to worry. Hope you feel better
But i tell myself the truth is out there everywhere, so just be a person of integrity where my values and actions etc. Work in a direction towards alignment.
It is really what gives me some kind of reduced anxiety
No, I believe(d) that we are all in a video game. But like I said, if we’re all in it, we’ll all be changing stuff on restart, so there’s no chance to redo anything. So I managed to talk myself out of it.
I know that place.
It feels like a game — rules, watchers, scripted things.
I think I’ve been there still there.
When I’m in it, I try to ask questions that don’t come from the game/place.
I have something like the video game delusion except its that my life is a real life game for other people to play me towards suicide. This is the hardest one to get out of…
The thought broadcasting delusions i can use logic like you do with your second delusion.
When i think people on the television are somehow reacting to me i remind myself that i have this same feeling at multiple times about the same instance in the tv show. So either they can somehow react to multiple instances of time in one single instance of time or its a delusion.
The fact that there is no evidence for points in time being connected should be enough but the more layers of nonsense the easier it is to see as impossible.
I think the real substance is the feelings of “realness & fear” the thoughts create. Without some negative meaning towards our lives the delusions would have little power…
My delusion is people make people mentally ill, to abuse them or get them out of the way. Also that CBD really works, but people want people distressed and won’t give them the real thing.
