Here's a good example of when I think my brain didn't produce the inserted thoughts: http://andytriboletti.tumblr.com/post/32437656234/roger-waters http://andyt

"A couple years ago I was reading Incognito where they mention Pink Floyd’s lyrics “There’s someone in my head but it’s not me”. Later that night I was lying in bed trying to go to sleep when I thought “Roger Waters” At the time I didn’t know who he was but I found his Wikipedia page."

Hello. I created an account on this website specifically to reply to your comment despite the fact that I usually only lurk here. I read your linked blog and honestly, if that's yours, I feel compelled to reach out to you. The behavior you've documented (helpfully, for both yourself and others) is textbook schizophrenia. The paranoia, the the voices, the "I could control what showed up on tv" all fits the bill for mental illness. You have to learn to stop trusting your own head and document with outside sources. In the TV case, film yourself on your phone. Say what's going to show up, then wait for it. Watch it. See if you "remember" being able to control it. Then watch the video back later, then realize nothing you said actually was right. You've got to use the wonderful technological tools available to you to fight this, and included a trusted healthcare professional. I'm reaching out in hopes that this helps you, not trying to troll/insult at all. There's no shame in what's happening to you. The only shame is that science doesn't understand the brain well enough yet to detect/heal these things before they impact our lives.

  He says above that he is on perphenazine and that he sees are professional every 6 months. Seems like he knows what's up. No need to be concerned.

  I would very much like to document these things with my iPhone. The TV has not done anything strange lately, this is all years ago and I'm just sharing it. Why Can't People in Mental Hospitals Use Cell Phones? I would have liked to record the TV in a mental hospital when I was involuntarily committed years ago using my iPhone, but it was taken away from me without a jury trial and without being allowed to use my own lawyer.
