I think that I have some sort of mental illness. I have always had problems to some degree. My parents noticed it as did a lot of people. I functioned as a kid, but something was clearly off in some way. Not anything too noticeable though and in fact I did exceptionally well academically. At some point after I was layed off from my first job, I began to see myself as entirely unlike most folks I know. I started staying awake until real late like 4 or 5 and watching porno. I started getting real paranoid feeling like everyone was watching me and laughing at me. I even went to a ghetto porn theater looking for a hooker alone. I didn't follow through with it because I couldn't bring myself but I almost did as I have been entirely unsuccessful with women. Then, I was ok for a while, did well in school and was well regarded by others. However, my work performance dropped a bit. Then, when I went away to school, for a while I was ok. However, I then started going berserk on the phone to my family and acting all crazy and started thinking I made a great discovery that was really just madness and not real. My parents sometimes think I am sane, but who knows. I keep a fairly normal attitude about stuff but sometimes get paranoid about the strangest things like that the CIA is conspiring against me and at times I feel like an incredible genius

    Doesn't seem that strange but get an evaluation if you're concerned.
    I've had mental illness and it caused me much more problems for me than what you described.

    Oh by the way, i have seen dead people before and once in a while these spirits and stuff talk to me but not very often. i sometimes think i am a medium between the land of the living and the land of the dead. i worry sometimes that i am becoming a necromancer of some sort because of this as well. i really need to stop trying to talk to dead people what does everyone think. i think that i may have been playing with some type of sinister demons for a while there

    Sounds like bipolar to me. Get medical advice.

    Feeling like everyone is watching you and that you are being spied on by the CIA is a symptom of schizophrenia.

    You think you are mentally insane? That your brain has gone down the drain that leads into your viens until it rains all of the worlds gains as we watch and cry in pain? or take an aeroplane to the membrane of my mums blood stain and look around and pray that we stay and lay in hopes that one may say 'hurray! today is the day I will pay for my stay here on the blood stain membrane!' Sounds sane?

      Wait, I never wrote this did I? I wouldn't be entirely surprised if I did post something like this at some point, but I somehow just think I've never been quite that crazy. My craziness is generally at least a couple notches down from this. I don't think I've ever been that far gone or maybe I have for a few moments here and there but not sustained. I've said a few weird metaphorical tangents and thought I was somehow getting my point across but not quite. I usually am at least able to clarify myself though when I say strange things. Not always though, people who know me know that I say some weird things sometimes like when I start saying I have the answers to the world's greatest problems and stuff like that. Usually the weird stuff I say has that 'almost makes sense but not quite' sound rather than the depths of insanity

    If what you said was real, you're really fucked up dude. Please try a healthy diet and just think positive.

    Lack of sleep can cause hallucinations, depression , and all sorts of messed up things.
