My father had schizophrenia and said many of the same type of things you're saying here. Until he was medicated, he also saw these grand conspiracies to harass and threaten him. Once he received treatment, he learned to discern what was and was not real.

I urge you to seek help. Do what he did: set up two evaluations with psychiatrists and get the results. Then, without telling anyone if your intentions, pick a random date and time, drive way out of town, and check yourself into an ER or mental health facility for an emergency psych eval. See if the results match. All three of his did and he realized there was no way this grand conspiracy by shadow actors could have orchestrated it.

Did your father also have ex boyfriends in law enforcement who happen to hate him? It is more likely that you should be screened for mental illness since you might have a hereditary predisposition to it.

Yeah, he also responded by deflecting when people tried to offer help or pointed out that his stories didn't make sense. I'm sure it's exhausting to always defend an ever-growing, increasingly implausible narrative.

I honestly hope you can find peace, regardless of the source of your trouble.

Go to a different state and do it. You don’t sound well. Cops lie and plant evidence yes, but cops aren’t out there specifically targeting the Lemmy accounts of their exes to say to get therapy to deal with probable trauma.

This sounds like a clinical paranoia. I’m not a mental health professional though, I can’t clear you.

Hey, I’ll be sure to remind you to seek mental help if you ever have exes in law enforcement and find yourself facing the same problems.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah I probably will. It sounds like a traumatic experience. I’m not discounting the fact that if what you say is accurate it’s probably serious psychological trauma. What I’m saying is that no matter which is true you could probably use professional help.

Or don’t I’m a stranger. But I’m a stranger who knows there’s no shame in needing help. And you can always seek a professional who will let you bring a trusted friend along

I already have. I have already been evaluated. I have also had head CT’s taken.
