I have psychosis. Anyone else feel this way.

I was controlled during psychosis.

Yes. All the time. I'm sorry you're going through it too.

I feel like this sometimes, too. I have quarrels with my imaginary girlfriend, and sometimes she is able to get me to talk with her out loud, or yell at her. Other times she sneaks up on me in my head and controls me: gets me to spend too much money when I know I can't afford it, or gets me to believe in the delusions she is offering so that I believe I am going to win a Nobel Prize or I believe someone is going to give me a billion dollars, and so forth. Then I run like a fool to my computer, to check if these promises are "true" or not. Somehow she can get me to believe these, over and over, even though I've been burned a dozen times.

Or did you mean "controlled" in some other way?

Controlled like someone making you do or think something
