I believed growing up that I was the star of a television show. Cameras constantly following and capturing every moment of my life for all to see. People only existed when interacting with me or being in the vicinity of my being. So I would also wonder what happens to these "characters" once I am gone. Do they disappear? Safe to say that bathroom moments were pretty embarrassing.

I used to believe hat the news readers could see into my living room so i sed to undress behind the couch.

I used to believe everyone in this world would watch me, all the time. I was the only one being watched but their could be a few others out there. I believe that my thoughts could also be heard via television and radio, so whenever live media was on I would enter an insane mode where I communicated with them to the point they made me laugh in a personal way, sometimes today I cant sit through the news without smiling my head off, although I know it's all bullshit. I believed this shit for like... 1 year, from 17 to 18, a year of constant belief caused me to break down and nearly go insane. These psychotic thoughts nearly drove me to my end, I wisend up, please believers, stop believing. Also, if your paranoid a little, don't smoke weed. It didn't help matter much, also dont hang around with psychotic people. To this day I am still battling these thoughts, after all... how will we ever know? All I do know is that believing purely all day long for a long period of time will send you nuts, don't do it. Peace... let me restate PEACE.

when I was younger we moved into the house I live in now. we weren't the first family to live in this house, and I thought that the two kids that lived in the house before me had put cameras in my room and the bathroom and I thought they were looking at me. I don't know why I thought this. hahaha.

wayy to paranoid

I have this glass door that leads out to the patio and at night time me and my friends would be scared to go near because we thought a creepy looking man was staring at us. To this day we still believe it.

I used to think the people in posters would watch you and could talk and interact with you just like in real life. For a while I thought I Tobey Maguire was my best friend

Up untill about age 13 I used to have to get dressed in the bathroom. I could never get changed in my room becuase the posters of actors and rockstars were actually special portals that the people could watch their fans through. I'm still a little embarassed to be naked in front of my posters

when i was younger i used to belive that if you thought realy hard about someone that they would be able to see you and everything you were doing. So whenever i was about to do something bad i would think about what my mom was thinking as she watched me doing it.

Chloe

i used to be obsessed with orlando bloom, and i had all these pics of him on my wall. i never got changed in my room, because even though i knew they were just pieces of paper, they were still staring at me. it was really creepy. my friend felt the same way and when she had posters on her wall, shed get changed in her closet.......

i still dont get changed in my room if theres any pics of ANYONE on my wall!

I used to believe that my dog had video cameras implanted in her eyes and that every spot little on the wall or ceiling was also a camera or a secret hole through which my parents could spy on me. I'm not sure whether I actually believed this or whether it was merely my imagination at work, but I was alway cautious not to do anything "bad" in front of my dog.

dont you ever wonder how portrait paintings look as if they can follow you with their eyes no matter where you position yourself in a room? same with photographs. when we visit museums it would take us 6 hours max. i used to test this idea with EVERY painting in the museum.

I watched a show on urban legends once, and one of the stories mentioned was about a hotel that equiped all of its bathrooms with "see-through" mirrors (the mirrors that are actually windows) and that people were watching on the other side. However, I thought an urban legend was defined as a real event at the time, so whenever I stayed in a hotel, I avoided going to the bathroom and was sly when taking a shower because I was afraid people could see me through the mirror.

I used to believe that people couls see you on the TV screen. I only changed when the commertials were on.

when i was in 3rd grade i had a crush on this guy and he had a friend that i thought was pretty smart. i thought he liked me so i was convinced his friend made a small camera to spy on me so i always acted nice

Jessica

i used to believe that there were cameras around my room and that someone was watching me!

This is sad, when i was about 10, I had all these Harry Potter posters in my room and i used to think that they could see me when i was getting changed, so i refused to get changed in my room.

my friend came over one day and we were getting changed and she kept saying that the characters on the posters could see me getting changed, eventually i ended up halfway down the hallway ages from my room and i still thought that the posters could see me. I took them down after that

Kat

I used to believe that there was someone "working" inside of the TV set that sat there and changed the channels when I turned the knob. I would spin the knob around really fast trying to confuse them, but they always got it right. Mom told me that they could see me, too, so I should get dressed before I sat down in front of the TV so that I wouldn't be seen in my PJ's.

Donna R

I used to think the television newscasters could see and hear me. I thought they were going to tell my teachers everything I did. I never got dressed in front of them. Ever.
