I don’t look into people’s eyes because that’s how they read my mind. They are probably giving it out to people and maybe broadcasting it on radios or something. I can never be safe and private because people know what I am thinking. I caught one person today. Trying to get me to look in their eyes. So I don’t make eye contact.

Jake - are you seeing a psychiatrist? Are you taking medications? Seems like you need some help.

I’m sorry this is hitting you…
I wish I could find a way to reassure others that what is in their mind is safe.
I used to believe that people could read my mind… I’d try experiments on people and set it up so if they read my mind… they would do a specific thing… it never happened.
No one can read our mind… our mind is safe.
I hope you feel better soon.

i do notice that my friends sometimes say things i’m thinking. happened tonight. just think that we think alike though. pointing out obvious things. Do i really think people can read my mind? No. And they can’t read yours either.
I used to think this as a kid of my great grandparents who were my legal guardians that they’d broadcast my thoughts onto the TV because they practiced witchcraft so they had that ability and did it to monitor my thoughts when I was upstairs in bed so I’d lay there trying to keep my mind blank. FYI I have never felt animosity towards witchcraft or magic or Wiccans in general, it was just my logic behind my delusion.
Please see your doctor…No one can read anyone’s mind. Making eye contact gives you confidence of speaking. It makes you at the same level as other person is. Please talk to your parents or friends if you feel like sharing… Discuss your concern and why you feel that way.
And please see a psychiatrist…
I had this mind reading problem long time ago. I actually thought that I was able to read people’s minds and that people were able to communicate to me using microwaves. It was not so as I discovered later. I do not have this problem any longer. It is funny now but at the time I thought also that cats were able to read my mind. Thank God I do not have that problem any longer.
I’m not buying this whole picture you’ve been painting over the past week or so. If you were truly so symptomatic, you’d be a lot less lucid and functional. I smell something that stinks. A 13-year-old with these symptoms that lives life without intervention just isn’t something that exists. I came down with schizophrenia at 12, and I spent years locked up and under treatment. You post too much too clearly. I sense some sort of teenage angst and that’s about it.

I don’t know where you got the idea of life without intervention. And I’ve always been relatively insightful compared to others I know. But I definitely am not functional in my everyday life at all. I’m not gonna sit here and defend myself to you though, if you believe I am exaggerating/lying about things that are happening then that is your own business.
Ummm, almost 24 years having this disease. Everything you’ve said is practically copied and pasted out of the DSM.

You go to school, have friends, do all this stuff in your bio, babysit, etc.
I’m seeing a psychologist and that’s all. My mom does not want to take me to a psychiatrist about my voices. I don’t know why completely.
you have to talk about your voices. your life depends on it

I don’t babysit. I was asking a question that I was curious about. But I never babysit. And I don’t have friends by the way, I definitely used to though. Anyways, I’m sorry to hear that you’ve suffer from this, and I’m also sorry if I was ever off-putting. Good luck
I do with my psychologist. But at some point I need to talk to someone who can diagnose/treat it. I don’t know why my mom is trying to get in the way of that.
I lead a pretty boring life. Anyone reading my mind will end up snoring loudly. Not something I’m that worried about.

Most of the stuff I’m interested in doesn’t interest anybody else.
@p2r @mjseu @Griz @schizofriendia @SurprisedJ @darksith @Kellie Thank you for your support. I just can’t bring myself to accept that it isn’t true. It feels so real to me. As much as i would love to believe that it isn’t true… I can’t. I have this strange certainty I’ve never had before, and I just know that it’s real… the way people stare at me, react to what I am thinking. I used to think that these beliefs I have aren’t true, but they’ve become too real to me. I know that the voices and other things are not there, but all these other things… the plot, the mind reading, the spying through speakers on stage… It has to be real. It may seem like I’m not making any sense online, but it makes perfect sense to me… that it’s all been happening for longer than I’ve realized. I don’t know.
