Not sure if recovery is where this belongs but does anyone else think there's a parasite in their brain? I've been doing things and seeing things and hearing things that don't feel real or like my doing. I know Im not schizophrenic, I know Im not going through psychosis. Is there anything that would cause something like this? It feels like my brain is splitting. I truly think somethings in it.

No, I don't feel that. Although being in the internet a lot does tend to make everything seem unreal

It might be worth a doctor check in if you don't feel more normal soon

It hears like a symptom of schizophrenia or dissociative disorders. It'll be a good idea to see a psychiatrist.

A parasite is unlikely. There are simply so many other, more common things that could cause the symptoms - some physical, some more psychological.
See a doctor, as soon as conveniently possible. They'll know what questions to ask, and what examinations to do, to start ruling things out.

The most common reason for someone believing they have a parasite in their brain is parasitosis. See a psychiatrist please!! The brain is so well protected, its the last place that could get a parasite. There just aren't really any parasites around that can end up in the brain. Its not a parasite, I promise. But I know you won't believe me because the whole point of parasitosis is you're convinced its a parasite so will never seek the right help. It's sad

There are some articles online where persons had a parasite in their brain. I listened years ago news where a woman got a parasitworm into her brain, because she has eaten a snake and they are hosts sometimes, infected. Another case is a boy who was in a infected see.

It's similar to cats when they eat birds who are infected, they get worms or just swimming or trinking water that is dirty.

So yes it can happen.

I would not recommend going to any theRapist because they are actual a scam and just would give you gaslighting and psychiatric drugs.

I think you are not crazy but you should ask yourself closer from where parasites could have entered your body. Maybe you traveled alot, eat dirty food?

Another reason could be really just your wrong imagination. Maybe do you take any drugs or do you suffer from lack of vitamins or you have organic defects (liver, kidney) because they can give you destructive and wrong feelings so you are at risk to believe things that aren't there.

I think it is something like that if you where honest about your thoughts.

It can't be psychiatric disorders imo, because they do not really exist. Psychology is similar to religion, or synthology. It is not a science. Many who say otherwise are paid by pharmacy or very evil, or too naive and traumatized people who don't want to believe how corrupt and shitty our society really is.

You could go to a normal doctor (if you are not lower class or already stigmatized as crazy) an say you assume organic problems and you want a check up, blood tests, about inflammation, because you feel untypical tired lastly and anxious.

Mayby you hae the security to say the truth that you worry about parasite infection because you eat food or you came in contact with water who was possibly infected and you just want to make sure that there is nothing.

You could use chat assistant bots before you talk to a normal doctors, because normal doctors are often midde class and pro-psychology too so they would just ignore everything and stigmatize you as mentally ill, especially if you are female, black, homeless, poor, uneducated/unemployed.
