Who has experienced the feeling of knowing somebody is going to kill you in psychosis? It’s crazy as ■■■■, but I remember taking a nap accepting the inevitable the first time it happened.

Well I sometimes think that if I go to sleep that I’ll die, or that I’m in the process of dying. I am afraid that someone’s going to kill me, but I don’t really think it’s a delusion because I know that they might not.

The very first time I was in my room with my daughters. I tore the room up and wrote “I no suicide” on the wall in my wife’s makeup. Needless to say, that was the last time I ever entered that house again. My ex-wife is so freaked out by the experience she doesn’t let me alone with my kids when I visit from out of state. I guess I can understand.

For me, it’s more general. Like, I feel like I am going to have something fatal happen in the next hour or two. It’s a bit overwhelming at times

I’ve kind of figured I’ll eventually commit suicide while in an acute psychosis. When I wasn’t drinking or eating in the hospital I passed out 4 times and it was just a black blankness until I came to…so now I wonder if death is like that, a total black state of unawareness. It was actually very peaceful, being in nothingness. It makes me less afraid of it.
Yes. That’s all I say.
Sleep paralysis the first time in my teenage years. I was so terrified to meet death. I did gain control of my hand and flipped it off though.
In retrospect It probably wasnt death but that was the only explanation teenage flames mind could conjure to explain the pure terror i felt. the paralysis did not help either…

I voted no, but at one point early in my 1st marriage, I woke from a very realistic dream crying, it haunted me for over a week.
In it there was someone in a black ski mask chasing me with a knife, intent to kill me.
I sprinted faster away from them, but I couldn’t sustain the speed to stay at a safe distance, and they tackled me to the ground.
I fought back for awhile, which just made them more determined to kill me. Knowing I was going to die, and I had nothing left to lose, I snatched that mask off the attacker’s head, which revealed to my horror, it was my husbands angry face looking back at me.
Ugh.
Didn’t know what to think, so I said nothing to him. Couldn’t shake that ominous feeling, something was going to happen, but I had no clue as to what.
Let’s just say dreams do come true, but not so literally.
the truth is more in the theme of it, which is why I voted no in this poll, only because he wasn’t psychotic (you think?), no, it was intentionally and logistically well planned out to achieve the goal.

Well, technically, you are dying the second you come out of the womb. It just happens at different times for everybody.

I’m afraid I’ll be killed. I’m scared of death and hope I have a good 3-6 years left to live at the least.
I was in a mini coma for 3 days from all the lithium they gavd me… Same thing, total blackness, didnt know everything about nothing… No peace or anger, just black and nothinghess
I was told that I was gonna burn from inside out from some drugs they apparently put into me. i could feel the sensation of bubbling under my skin. Ugh horrible experience, waiting to die a most painful death. And the waiting was for hours

Always thinking this one guy is out to kill me maybe i he is Mabey I’m nuts
In 2015, I was in the mental hospital and felt like I was being hunted down in the psych ward. Thought there was a conspiracy to kill me or make me disappear.
Worst year of my life.
The main feeling I’ve had was that the voices would keep me awake to the point that I died of exhaustion and that was their plan. it’s been a while since I’ve felt that way and although I wake up pretty damn early I do sleep at night consistently now.
I’m less ‘someone is going to kill me’ and more ‘the world is going to blow up and we’re going to die’ or something along those lines.
I have bad delusions about the end of the world, so many times I just brace myself and hope it’ll all be over soon.
Loud noises are the worst. The loggers occasionally have to blow things up on the mountains surrounding my town and it is SOO LOUD. Each time this happens I think I’m going to die.
It rarely happens anymore, but I used to sometimes have brief moments where I’d be sure I would be killed in traffic.
I would shake and cry and refuse to leave the driveway because I was sure I’d be run over as soon as I tried to cross the road.
