fear of having magical powers
« on: June 10, 2011, 01:28:00 AM »
a little background i have been diagnosed with panic disorder and ocd and have been in and out of therapists office since i was 8. Alright to start my sleeping has been really off like sleep at 4am and waking up at like 1pm my eating hasn't been great either. Alright last night I was laying down to sleep I closed my eyes and had a vision of my hand like shooting a laser beam or something but anyway I laid on my stomach and let my arm drop of the bed it felt like it wasn't mine and it got me worried then all of of the audden I started thinking I had magical powers in my right arm that still dosent feel like it doesn't belong to me I know the thought is stupid but I can't get out of my head I have a fear that I'm actually going to believe I have super powers. I know its ridiculous and it makes me angry that I can't shake it. Has anyone else had similar fears. it boils down to a fear of having having delusion that i have magical powers i know that i dont and its impossible but i cant shake this thought out of my head. to add my anxiety has been off the charts my two best friends are going through a really bad breakup and have put me in the middle of it and that just makes matters worse.

I'm familar with your arm not feeling like yours, its a symptom of depersonalization I think. I also went through a period of a couple weeks where I was convinced that I was becoming schizophrenic. I would overanalyze everything to make sure that I wasn't hallucinating or becoming delusional. My psychologist was able to convince me that I wasn't becoming psychotic, and people who develop psychosis don't realize it or worry about it. I know it feels real and really uncomfortable but its just anxiety.
