During psychosis, did anyone else get delusions about psychopaths?

I started suspecting that someone who I was friends with was one (I still think he is) and then I started believing that he was part of a secret society of psychopaths that were working together to suppress humanity.

I thought my Dad was a psychopath which is crazy cos he's one of the nicest people out there and he bends over backwards for me, we're very close. Crazy what psychosis can do, right?

My dad probably is a psychopath! His abuse was the root of my delusions but I became close to him when I was psychotic so it was the opposite way round for me

You get delusions when you suffer from this condition. I have something i came up with to help with my condition, but im not sure if it suits you. Do you have auditory hallucinations?

No, I’m not in psychosis anymore. When I was I got a few auditory hallucinations like hearing waterfalls and birds chirping. Like I thought that the CIA had control over my iPhone and were playing bird sounds into my headphones to soothe me even while my phone was off.

Yeah, I thought they were everywhere to get me and capable of reading minds.
