Religious delusions

I think of my mental illness like this too.

I like to know what’s affecting me & how its affecting me, i think it shows a good level of insight, if i know what’s happening (to even a lesser degree) i can try and find a way out, i think it helped me to get myself help when i was really bad, I’m on my own so i need to be my own advocate even with reduced capacity.

I dont think being religious means your mind is weaker and irrational.
The vast majority of people on earth are religious.

Yep, its weird, like i know i am not my usual self when I’m delusional but its all really jaded and the religiosity keeps me grounded somehow, i cant ignore the massive alarm bells going off in my head.

Religious delusion is a weakness, its a a part of the illness, its what we do when we are in that moment that helps us deal with it, like coping strategies etc.

If I ever become a father, I don’t care about my kids sexuality, their gender, their career choice, their taste in music, ect.. Theres one thing I will not accept in my house . NO RELIGION.

maybe it should be in the unusual beliefs, idk?

we’re not talking about religion per se, we are talking about delusions which happen to be religious in nature

That was like my home growing up. I wasnt allowed to view religion in a good light or learn about it.
