so, does anybod know how to cure real thought-broadcasting aside from taking antipsychotics which might not work? what do you think spiritual healing
I suffer from schiz-affective. My first episode happened way back 1988.
The first thing you will have to do is to accept that there might be a problem.
Once you've accepted that you are suffering from mental ilness, you begin to develop an insight to it.
It took several years before the right medication was found for me. Prior to that, Almost every few months, I get sent to a hospital.
The other thing that help is to question what you are experiencing. If it defies the laws of physics (and reality), then it is happening only in your head.
With regards to spiritual healing, I can tell you now that it does not work. Part of my delusion is the belief that I was chosen by God to be his messenger. What I did then, is to search for God. Because of that search, I ended up in JREF, and I begun to understand that there is no way I can prove that a god exists. Becoming an agnostic is the best thing as I begin to question all that I experience.
Yes, I too suffered from thought broadcasting. The difference is that I made sure nobody knows me. I was afraid that if they found out who is putting those thoughts in their head, I would be in danger. I haven't had a relapse for a long time now, except for a short period (three days). What happened is that I joined a discussion (about god) and the "God's messenger" delusion came back. It is good that some of the posts made me question what I am experiencing.
What I can advice is for you to do a unbiased research about schizophrenia. Learn to accept that there might be a problem. Discuss what you are experiencing with your doctor. Take your medications. I know that there could be some side effects. If it does not work, discuss your options with your doctor.
Remember that there is nothing to be ashamed of. Schiz is an illness like any other illness. It can happen to anybody. It is of no fault of yours if you suffer from it.
