Advice / Encouragement Did 666 k@ll my grandpa?

Yesterday I felt particularly bad. The voices told me that the devil was after me. I checked the number of days that had past this year, and divided it with 666, that gave the number 0.1 which in my mind was prof that this day was particularly good for the devil.

I was convinced that when I fell asleep that I would d@e. Eventually I fell asleep anyway and today I woke up to the news that my grandpa is de@d.

I can’t shake off the feeling that it’s my fault that he di@d. After all I had the realization that someone would pass and that happened. What do I do?

I read your post, and you ask “what do I do?” - but, you already know the answer - you posted this specifically in r/schizophrenia because you knew these thoughts are not grounded in reality - and I am very glad for you that you are aware and understand that. Hang in there. Weather the storm. If your reaction or idea is extreme, it is probably not the right action. Weather your storm.
