Is it normal: to think your being watched through a television?

Okay so this is going to be sort of difficult to explain. But for a really long time, i've always felt as if there were people watching me. Like through a television screen. Fucking crazy? Sure. I mean its not like i actually BELIEVE i am IN a television, its just that in my mind, say, when i'm alone in my house either just listening to music or something, i'll be thinking of something and say, someone asks me something (But they clearly did not) I will reply. I KNOW that there is nobody there its just that i always feel that there is. I act as if i would act around people. For instance, you feel free to fart or burp or pick a wedgie (which i really dont care about, anyways) When your all alone. It's sort of like that, except i always feel like i'm not alone, even if i know that i am. It's really hard to describe. I say and act as if people who I admire are watching my every move, or word.
I dont know.
Is it normal? lol

    I'm not sure if it's the same thing, but when I'm home alone, I sometimes pretend I'm the host of a cooking show or that someone is interviewing me.

    there may be more to this feeling than you ever knew! there are conspiracy theorists that claim that we can be spied on via our credit cards, and actually HDTVs have that capability too. Don't dismiss something like this instantly just because it sounds crazy bcuz truth can be stranger than fiction.

    Same thing with me man, I feel like I'm an actor and I'm being watched like a tv show kind of. Not all the time of course, because that could be schizophrenia. I'm pretty sure it's nothing to worry much about

    Important thoughts. I don't know whether or not to recommend Nineteen Eighty-Four to you. Actually, I'm going to. And Brave New World too. They're worth reading. I think you'll get something out of them.
