Checking my thought process to see if it seems normal seems to fill my days and years. Asking people what they think is common.
Keeping a log of daily symptoms (graph and check marks with 1-10 scale) helps me to know when I am more prone. Or sometimes notice what I thought was logical is actually a symptom of (for example) psychic. "Was I psychic today - oh not at all, wait - there was that hour when I was connected spiritually to a little girl from Texas, but that was real.... wasn't it?" Instead of that being a zero, suddenly that becomes a 8. Ya, I thought I was psychic today, maybe instead of being psychic, that was my illness.
It is really hard knowing where reality begins and delusion ends.
