When I am manic I am nuts. I have psychotic features. Actually, when I am manic I am psychotic. I thought last time that I was a god from another dimension. Does anyone else experience this?

I get psychotic symptoms but my mental health team has always reigned me in before I get too out there. I have a good team. Plus I see them every week, so that helps too.

Yes, I've experienced something similar to what you described. Speaking to beings from other dimensions...believing myself to be goddess-like. Those times are behind me now and I hope it doesn't happen again. It caused me to make bad decisions and I thought too highly of myself. Sigh.

I've never thought I was any kind of divine being, but I have sometimes thought I was sent by God to be in the right place at the right time, like the time a co-worker felt lightheaded and I took her blood pressure, which was high enough that it could have caused a stroke right then and there. I was manic at the time, but not so out of control that I didn't know what I should do next. I called 911 and sat there with her thinking what a miracle it was that I had been sent to save her. LOL

There was a time that I was God's gift to mankind, but I didn't take all the credit. It was God, Jesus, then Me.

I thought I was givin a special spiritual gift to heal everyone I knew. I thought I was supposed to be the next Jesus. Exactly like PP said, I didn't take all the credit, it was God, Jesus then me. I could hear God's thoughts and Satan's. It was up to me to fight Satan off the world.
I also believed the government was out to kill me because I knew all the secrets of the new world order. I told my family if I die of a freak accident, it was the government. Also saw as clear as day how the galaxy was the complete answer to the after life. However, not a single person could understand what I was trying to say. |

I thought I'd regenerated the nerve in my deaf ear and therefore concluded I was a god. Not God, but a god. I also felt at one with a painting of the moon in my therapist's office. I saw Jim Morrison's face in it for some reason.

I hit the creative highs. I'll stay up for up to five days straight making all sorts of stuff. Last time paid off as I remodeled my 1000sq ft basement in the days and nights. I thought I was super human. But even the good highs have there consequences. I injured myself a few times and thought I needed no medical attention because I had super human healing powers.

I once was convicted I would father the antichrist. And there have been lots of times where I thought I was about to discover the secret that would enable me to heal the planet. Like once when I was inpatient there was a certain painting that I thought had a message just for me, and once I thought I'd discovered a secret thing about music that would let me heal people.

I thought I could save and eliminate all negative energy in the entire world by releasing my positive energy.

How common are these thoughts (magical thinking?) in bipolar II does anyone know? Do you typically keep them to yourself or do you let people know?

I spent all of my time trying to build up all the positive energy I could. I did positive things. I made one million positive collages. I had to wait untl I had enough before I could release it.
