How many of you believe in the paranormal? I have the ability to control people with my mind. Kinda like Obi Wan and "these are not the droids you are looking for". I just give a little nudge with my mind and I can often get people to do things that they are unaware of. I don't often use this ability, it feels invasive, but sometimes when I am out in public I will make people do things. Some people are harder than others, people who are on downers are really hard to control, I am not as strong as the opiate and never win out. I have tried many times to make people I know stop using, but it does not work. Other people are easy, oddly enough upper management where I work is easy and they are supposed to be the smart ones.
Anyways I told my Pdoc this and she just wrote in her notebook, I told my T this and she told me that it is totally plausible that I can. She also gave me the speech about with great power comes great responsibility.
Can anybody else do anything similar, I feel like I have this ability due to my BP. Somehow my Brain is wired for this because of the disease and it is sort of a trade off.

jpd,
I am no expert here and please don't get upset with me but that sounds a lot like some sort of delusion. I could be wrong and you really do have the ability to control things with your mind but it really does sound like a delusion.
Don't feel bad I sometimes think there's something still in this house with me. Things like doors closing on their own and strange noises, I get to thinking things like what if that sound demon I saw while manic really was real and its really still in my house with me.
My husband always reassures me there's nothing in the house and its probably the cats closing the doors and to not worry about it. He's probably right, or at least I hope he's right.
I could be wrong about your situation, who knows, I don't know everything so maybe something like that is possible?
