Hi there,
I have some habits that I don't know if they are part of my bi-polar 1 delusion stuff, or if perhaps I have some ocd too. I see a psychiatrist on the 21 and will try to ask, but want some of your opinions as well. Descriptions of: Delusions, well mine aren't so bad that I am unaware of whats going on, I just will get very caught up in some out of the norm thought or action and get wrapped up in it to the point of not coming down for hours - and later wondering how I got that far out. Like psychic thinking - Oh Hillary Clinton can't win the election unless she has this key piece of knowledge that I can share so I tweet her, or the Dalai Lama needs to know that the chant should be more of ahhhh instead of oooooh and that will help change the world and I know this because the universe is clearly talking to me. Oh, contact the president because today we killed one to many trees and there is less oxegan and I am having trouble breathing. But, another thing that happens is: repeating song sentences over and over and over - sometimes for hours, sometimes for days - but not being able to stop. Or, cleaning my nose pores - suddenly it is 3 hours later and I have been using pins to micro clean - or the entire body gets it, my hair is cut and I have discovered a new mask of get toothpaste which took off 20 years. Is this obsessive action normal for other bi-polar's? The psychic stuff, well that might be real - but I have a new med that is helping - for over 20 years on some occasions I couldn't control I get psychic messages about crimes taking place that I have be aware of in order to try to ease the suffering of the victim, or get through to the criminal psychically in order to want to change him. The psychic stuff I think might be real and maybe we are all just highly developed minds that is in the early stages of where humanity will be and we actually are psychic or telekinetic (cloud moving) Are all these things falling under bi-polar? Whats your opinions, and share experiences if you like. __________________ BEST OF LUCK TO US ALL! 600 mg Trileptal (oxcarbazepine) 30 mg Atarax (hydroxyzine) 8 mg Trilafon (perphenazine) Bipolar 1 - Borderline Personality Disorder - Generalized Anxiety Disorder - Eating Disorder |

I don't have delusions like yours, but I have been delusional during depression. I had a very profound depression 2 years ago and my thinking was so off that I wasn't aware of how off it was until I verbalized my thoughts to a close friend and heard the words coming out of my mouth. My depressive delusions are scary. Truthfully, there are small leftover fragments that I haven't been totally able to shed to this day. When I am on the up side, I just feel deeply connected to all that lives and breathes in nature. There is this entertwined energy that I experience, where all things are one...we all move together, breath together, in perfect harmony and balance. My eyes view things in technicolor or something...like someone bumped up the saturation of all colors. I just see the most beautiful side of all things. This is a minuscule rendering of what the experience FEELS like. It is truly moving and one of the most beautiful experiences I have had in life; spiritual for sure. I know pop psych slaps a "Manic" label on it, but I am still not so sure. I guess, maybe. Anyhow, you asked for someone to share, so i did : ) __________________ "My favorite pastime edge stretching" Alanis Morissette |

Imah, i can completely agree with you regarding the pore cleaning/haircut thing. I disappear into the bathroom and can be in a trance for an awkwardly long time. I cant help it. I do consider it an obsession. My psych doesnt even know.

I think that the delusional thoughts easily could be bipolar if they happen only when you're manic. If they can happen anytime regardless of mood, you may be schizoaffective. You're not alone; I've been there too.
