i'm different

i used to (and on occasions still consider it to be a viable explanation for many things that happen in life) think that my life was a series of very complex scientific experiments, and real life was something completely different altogether. i used to think everything was planned- to the last detail- like the period i would study in history, tv programs, the concept of money, everything. and all my family and everyone in contact with me were highly important "actors" in the tests. i used to think that one day they would terminate the experiment and id discover that everything i'd known wasn't actually true.




i also used to think i had some obscure illness or condition that would give me an excuse for when i screwed things up, came last on sports day, etc.



sometimes i wish i did...

I remember thinking if I can contorl what Barbies can do, that something was controling what humans cans to. ...from going the bathroom and eating. I even thought that some thing was moving our arm to brush my hair!

I used to think there was always someone trying to kill me and if I didn't ignore it or act all loud they'd get me.

i used to believe that i was the only person who truly exsisted,other people were somehow there just to make sense for my own existance.I wish i still believed it.

I used to believe that everyone else could read my mind. I thought everyone could hear everything I was thinking. I spent about half my childhood looking at people thinking the words GET THE KDFJFLKSDJ OUT OF MY HEAD!!

From The Time after i read A Certain book I thought I was a dog but drank a special potion when i was a puppy that turned me into a human

My aunt Helen told my cousin Shane when he was a toddler that he was a prince and she was his humble servant. He really thought he was a prince until kindergarten, when all the kids made fun of him for thinking he was a prince.

when i was young i always woundered if my reality wasnt real and that it was someones dream and that it would end when someone else woke up.

I used to think when I close my eyes, the world turns totally different, but when i open them it turns back to normal.

I grew up with tons of sci-fi playing all the time on our TV so I was very familiar with the idea of alternate dimensions. At one point I convinced myself that I was constantly travelling through dimensions and any time I was wrong about something, it wasn't that I was wrong, it was that I was now in a dimension that was different from the one I had been in earlier.

I thought I can transform into a robin bird. In the playground I spitted on my arms and hands then put sands on them so they stick to my skin and have brown color. I jumped off the cliff because I thought I was actually flying and I was spinning around like a plane for hours. I even built a nest made out of blankets and take some real eggs out of the fridge and put them in my pants and pretend to lay eggs. Then I actually sat on them... what an idiot!

ROBIN WANNABE!

When i was sevenish, I used to beleive i was the only real human, and everyone else were aliens disguised as friends, family,and common people. I beleived my whole life was just a test/experiment.. pretty weird huh? lol

when i was about 7ish, i thought people could read my minds. I'd give them a dirty look and think 'i know you can read my mind, so i'm not going to think of anything'. Then i would also sometimes ''tell'' them that i knew exactly what they were also thinking. Hmm....must've confused a couple of people with those looks.....

I was confused....

For the longest time when I was a kid, I used to think every single person on earth besides me were secret alligator aliens that revealed their true form only when I closed my eyes. Their mission is still unclear to me.

when i was a little boy (about 5) i realised that i am the center of the universe and that the whole world circled around me that everybody was there to influence me in some way and if i closed my eyes i wasnt really sure that the world and all the things and people in it are still there
i still kinda belive that

niaitan

wnen i was little i use to believe that all people were gods barbie dolls,and all the men were Ken dolls and all the women were barbies. And god would play barbies all day. and since i was such an active kid i use to believe that i was his fav. barbie.

I used to belief I was a cat, and I lived on a cat planet thing... And then I wished on a shooting star to be human. ^_^;;

I used to think everyone else in the world were aliens and when I turned around, they looked like normal people. (I thought this when I was 7,8,9.)

Alienator

when i was little, i was convinced that there was a giant invisble string tail-like thing atatched to me. I would run around the house to make a big trail and would try to make it a pretty patern! My parents must have worried about me an awful lot...

I think i lost it.
