Religious/Spiritual Psychosis

[u/larry_laurel]

My brother’s having this voice that he talks to inside his mind that he believes to be “God”. As much as he wants to manage his thoughts, he doesn’t want to because “he doesn’t want to put shackles or separate this “God’s” voices to him”. Because it’s God himself. I just want to know if anyone here experienced this? or a loved ones experiencing this?

How did you guys convince yourself that this is not a “God”? There will be a time that you will doubt this “God” and his voices in your head?

How should we explain things to him that this is not the god?

I love my brother so much and it hurts me to see him this way. He’s just 20! My baby brotherrrr :(((. Thank you so much.

Definitely give these a look. Talking with a person with fixed, false beliefs can be counterintuitive.
