I have dealt with a lot of paranoia and mild delusions such as thinking I have supernatural powers and such. These experiences were often distressing but I was able to generally keep my cool around others and appear normal, outside a few occasions. The worst delusion I have had was a time while I was in hospital for treatment (thankfully) and I was convinced my life purpose was to raise awareness, defeat stigma and bring justice to people who had been sexually abused like I was. Not a bad aim but the way I felt 'called' to make this happen was to write a dozen page manifesto, climb the highest building in the city to draw police and media attention, send my manifesto to every site I could online then jump to prove my point of how much destruction sexual abuse causes. I really believed it was the best thing I could do with my life and that I was made to do it. I even wrote part of the manifesto until the extra meds kicked in and brought me to my senses. I was damn angry about the abuse but sure took it to the nth degree.
