I have grandiose delusions too. And when I realize I’m not saving the world like I’m destined to, I get suicidal for failing the world.

I think its a natural inbuilt coping mechanism so we don’t suicide and stay alive to reproduce.

My delusion of references makes me “feel” like I have to save the world.

But I am nobody.

Saving the world means for me you are trying to save yourself as a nobody as we are all sitting in the same boat.

Oh no. Really?

My grandiose delusion is that I’m really special compared to many ppl. Logically this is not true though.
I do feel I might be able to make a positive difference to the world.

I’d really like to.

Don’t worry @rocket you are not responsible for saving the whole world… It is all good… You’re okay

You’ve heard of dopamine but have you heard of the other one lofamine that’s the one that makes everything so lazy

Oh yes that sounds like it might be the case. Hmmm. So because we feel so low confidence, our body makes up for it by making us feel extra special compared to other ppl. So that we feel we have a special purpose and should not disappear. That’s cool. Well it works for me!

What do you mean that you are nobody?

I’m as lazy as a sloth. Probably the excess lofamine. Sob

I often feel grandeur, I’m the highest Buddha,
saviour, Messiah, but at the same time
I feel like shĂ­t, crĂĄp, despair, and depression

It isn’t an episode. It’s just how I’ve felt for a long time.
