For me the major telling sign has been psychosis & delusions, along with really bad paranoia at nearly all times.
Psychosis & delusions have always come for me in the form of being convinced I was being watched by entities or that someone was stalking me. I get super paranoid about it and start checking over my shoulder constantly looking for the thing(s) that is watching me, and I can genuinely feel myself being watched even though nothing is there.

Phantosmia is when you detect smells that aren’t actually there. To get rid of phantosmia, you have to treat the underlying cause.

I can also direct you to some blogs that would be able to answer questions better if you would like (endo safe ones specifically :))
Also also, don’t take everything I’ve said as 100% accurate. I’m still figuring things out and it’s a complicated subject quite honestly.
Anygays, hope this has helped :))
