it's such a punch in the dick to live in a world where most ppl aren't psychotic.... i hate my ideas and my identity and my thoughts being dismissed as delusions
That is seriously way too true!! I hate that so much.
When I told my psychiatrist about my main delusion of control being a guy they asked “Why a guy?” and I said “Why not a guy? I don’t particularly identify with either gender, so why is it weird for it to be a guy?”….And they wrote that down as a symptom.
And people do this all the time, even the well-meaning ones. “Oh, you’re.. spiritual, huh?” “So you’re anti-capitalist, huh?”, *writes your beliefs off as another symptom*
And you know what! So what if this or that is a delusion! It’s OUR world and our experience of the world!! Leave us be, for god’s sake. :/-Cat
