I find this all very interesting. I have often wondered if I am schizophrenic. I still do even though doctors have assured me I am not cuz I don't see things that aren't there.
I have this belief... well I guess it's not really a belief cuz I am not certain of it... but I have often thought that maybe I was abducted by aliens as a child and this DP I experience is an experiment they are conducting on me. I think this is quite possible although I don't know for sure. So would this be a delusion? Cuz blackwinded says there's always a possibility she's wrong and yet she is still considered schizophrenic, so maybe I am too... or maybe that's not the reason for her diagnosis. Who knows... I guess it doesn't matter.
"I never really say that something is for certain." Describes me perfectly. For awhile I was seeing strange visions in my head, when it first happened I thought I was asleep, but then I realized I could go in and out of it as I wanted... it was like looking through a tunnel. My mother called my name a few times during it and I was able to come out of it and talk a minute and then close my eyes and go right back into it. It was kinda like a dream but not really. That doesn't happen anymore though. I think it's cuz of the meds I'm on now. I was either on different meds before or no meds.
Sorry to bore everyone with my rambling again.
