Please people on this thread do not go off telling your docs you are delusional or having grandiose thoughts before doing your own research, mood tracking and educating yourselves as to what is what.

I think it would be a mistake/not even possible, to even just say to your Pdoc " I think that I'm having grandiose thoughts", they always ask for examples or want to monitor it....if they don't want to hear about it then you need to find a new Pdoc. Sorry.

I also think that the level of intensity of these feelings also defines what they are. I don't believe that someone who is not a Pdoc him/herself has the right to really go through and say what someone is experiencing isn't something or other, especially when you don't know the person/experienced them acting like this. Maybe for -you- they are nothing, but for the person that they effect, it can be another story.

This is a place for sharing and understanding, as well as helping each other. I think that fragmenting someones post saying what is what/what isn't without actually knowing her and when she was only seeking a common thing with us is a bit counterproductive.
