This might be beyond your ability to answer, but do you have any advice for ‘kin who suffer with delusions? I don’t feel my kinness is inherently a delusion, but I do feel at times my experiences with it contribute to an inability to differentiate between fiction/reality. My grasp on reality can be fragile when I get into bad states, and I’m not sure how to keep infalsifiable memories and emotions from triggering a reality break.

I’m really sorry anon, I’m really ill equipped to give you advice about delusions and separating them from non-delusional internal experiences. Speaking from personal experience only, the way I’ve been able to tell a delusion from a non-delusional belief is that the delusion goes away when my mental state changes, whereas other beliefs persist. 

Other than that, I can’t really give you any advice I’m afraid. Perhaps my followers who experience delusions can give some of their personal experience and advice?
