An internet search for “gang-stalking,” however, turns up page after page of results that regard it as fact. “What’s scary for me is that there are no counter sites that try and convince targeted individuals that they are delusional,” Dr. Sheridan said.

“They end up in a closed ideology echo chamber,” she said.

Dr. Sheridan’s study, written with Dr. David James, a forensic psychiatrist, examined 128 cases of reported gang-stalking. It found all the subjects were most likely DELUSIONAL.

“One has to think of the T.I. phenomenon in terms of people with paranoid symptoms who have hit upon the gang-stalking idea as an explanation of what is happening to them,” Dr. James said.

Jesus Christ , Deca I actually commented without watching the video. I seen your comment and replied to that! But I watched it now and oh my God that guy is so a victim of targeting , he comes across as sane as I am. Psychiatrists are F-ing delusional. They are not in touch with the reality of the situation.

Deca , I don't quite understand . When you type ("I'm not ill" = Lack of insight), do you mean from the doctors point of view? Because this is the kind of crap I hear from the psychiatrist that was forced onto me. I know that you are on our side Deca so I don't understand that part of your comment ("I'm not ill" = Lack of insight). But I have had a few drinks so I am not in the best shape either to judge! (lol). So what does your text mean, from the doctors point of view? Or from yours?

0:50 - "My housemates work for MI5 and they're doing stuff to my brain" = Persecutory delusion/paranoia

2:00 - "I can hear them talking about me" = Auditory hallucinations

2:40 - "They're always talking about everything I'm doing" = Running commentary

3:50 - "They're putting stuff in my brain...they're not my thoughts" = Delusion of control/thought insertion

4:15 - "It's MI5" = Preoccupation

5:40 - "I don't leave my room much" = Isolative behavior (negative symptom)

7:00 - "I thought of taking some pills" = Passive suicidal ideation

9:00 - "I smoke a bit of weed" (cannabis associated with increased psychosis in pts w/ schizophrenia)

10:45 - "I'm not ill" = Lack of insight

Also of note: Poor eye contact, fidgety/distractable.

See how they train Psychiatrist to f**k over real TI’s ....
