Ok, it always is complicated I guess.
Just make sure you talk about it openly and don't say no to antipsychotics (also a good filter in itself). Try to talk to someone who get debunk your ideas and analyse for yourself how things get delusional, based on deeper held beliefs. It's only the delusions that can hurt us. The rest (and only shortly held beliefs) is just noise. Can make things difficult for you personally, can make seeing things that are of consequence for difficult, but that's it.
Just talk. We've seen crazier. Who cares. Here and/or face-to-face with someone (maybe a therapist).
We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad. You'd have to be: otherwise you wouldn't have come here.
As the great writer and linguist Lewis Carroll wrote.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
See Me, Feel Me, Touch Me, Heal Me.
