I am so afraid of myself, I need help ASAP!!!

This is the first time I was in a general and mental hospital, they gave me different medications, and I stopped having dark, twisted fantasies, delusional beliefs, and hallucinations. I feel so good.

I had narcissistic delusions that my former bullies were going after me and that I had to kill them, to put a stop to it, and I had command hallucinations telling me to kill them.

I am scared that I might have an extremely severe personality disorder, with PTSD features. I need someone to talk to. Please help me, I am afraid of it!

  • I'm sorry you are going through this. Imagining some one is after you, who has actually harmed you in the past, sounds like a trauma response to me and doesn't sound very narcissistic either. The delusions do sound a bit psychotic though. 

    None of us, of course is qualified to make any sort of diagnosis and I am sure there may be more to your situation. Did they not give you a proper diagnosis? Personally, I'd go back to the services and ask for one. You don't want to be sitting there worried about personality disorders if what you have is a temporary trauma induced psychosis that won't last forever, but your service are the right people to ask whether that is the case.

    Good luck
