Anything about aliens will send me down my rabbit hole. I’ve had a rigid belief in aliens controlling me since 1999. Even with the help of medication, it’s still triggering. I’ve never watched Ancient Aliens, and have no intention to.
I have to stay away from delving in anything that has to do with spirits or ghosts or otherwise paranormal activities.
One of the first real symptoms I had of schizophrenia was that I was obsessed with ghosts and was convinced I was being haunted.
Also things that has to do with the devil really triggers my delusional thinking.
Those usually are my go to. Never really had the aliens. Or the government.
Did once have an episode that a mercenary group was after me, I believed I had worked for them and they turned on me, were chasing me across the country. That wasn’t fun.
But I digress, usually it’s me being divine, stuck in a human body, talking to spirits.
The last time I was delusional, some unknown entity was monitoring my house, had wired it with cameras and microphones. It was maybe the police, government, military, or maybe a hacker. They would talk over the TV set, but wouldn’t identity themselves. Oh I left out CIA. When I was 30 I was having religious hallucinations.
I don’t talk about it anymore. I try to let it all fade away. Sometimes i get the blast of the past, something like “total recall”. I take prn medication which is valium and increase my medication when necessary. My loved ones are able to help me when i am distressed.
Well all my delusions have had to do with the body…believing I was dead…or was afflicted with an embarrassing symptom. That sort of thing. No serious triggers to send me down the rabbit hole though. Zyprexa does a good job.
