It’s because of my belief that there is a supernatural force within me that observes the world and influeces my thought process.

Dunno. Thinking about thinking probably isn’t healthy. I used to do a lot of that.

I think about my thought process a lot. I have believed for a while that some force influences my thoughts. First I thought it was God, then angels and demons, then unidentified beings, and now just a supernatural force that has the ability to influence and/or control the thoughts in my head, any thought it wants to. I also have a theory that this force is intertwined with my soul on account of it having been created between dimensions by the joining of an angel and a demon. I have had many theories on my admittedly abnormal thought process. It’s been my life for the past 8 months.

I’m sorry. I didn’t know if I should put it here or in unusual beliefs so I just chose one.

When humans can’t grasp or understand the scientific nature of things they blame it on god, or religions, or supernatural forces. It is the easy way out. A chemical reaction in the brain although hasn’t been fathomed completely by scientists begins an understanding of the human perception better, hence reducing dopamine reduces positve symptoms in schizoprenia.
Bizarre conceptions based on the belief of religious indoctrination as a child explains nothing but a reliance on fantasy, like religion in the stone ages when they understood little.
Dont worry about it. Mods will move it.
Are you trying to call me stupid? I’m not stupid.
What does stupid have to do with it?
We have all been brainwashed in our youth. Questioning it and then re-evaluating them with pragmatic and conscious knowledge helps us grow.
Don’t take it as personal slight if someone questions a belief, rather a chance to question it.
I get a lot of threads moved. I’m bad at this. From now on I will post everything in unusual beliefs. Except for small talk in the lounge.
I’m sorry. I thought you were trying to say that I was an idiot.
I have thought a lot about my thought process and why it’s so differentto other people and have come up with many theories. This is just the one I think is most likely to be true.
Presuming and guessing what other people are trying to say is part of the illness.
I woould suggest you study what other schizophrenics commonly believe, the symptoms, such as knight move thinking, and the common common religious delusions that occur, then take some time to think about it.
Ask yourself whether only szs think about these things, and then possibly let go of such things and say it is the illness. rather than overthink and ruminate on it and drive yourself to possible levels of imaginary hells and heavens.
If alll the symptoms can be repeatedly exampled as by countless schizophrenics throughout the decades and listed then surely these things aren’t supernatural but just an example of mental illness.
Just my two cents. Feel free to ignore what I write.
Okay. This evening (it’s 5pm here) I will do some research about schizophrenia. Thank you for your help I appreciate it. I guess it’s hard to let go of my theories and beliefs, especially since there’s this recurrent voice in my mind that says “never stop believing.” I am having trouble trusting much outside of my own mind.
