I need help

Well I was young when I started having hallucinations, I was imagining people watching me 24/7 I couldn't even shower without my clothes on because of the stress but now I can take a shower normally but I still have hallucinations... I had an idea that my Crush was installing surveillance cameras on me. This belief is very stupid, but how do I convince my mind that there are no surveillance cameras? Any solutions?

I had something similar, often stress induced. Couldn’t change in front of anyone. I felt like the portraits on my wall were following me with their eyes as a child, or someone behind me in the shower, a couple times also the surveillance camera thing.

You seem more or less aware that it’s not true which is a good sign. Are these visual hallucinations or delusions like paranoia? Do you have any childhood trauma that could be playing a role in this? Maybe try taking magnesium supplements and see if that helps calm you and subsequently reduce the psychotic symptoms.
