Blurb from My Mental Madness Memoir

"The world was merciless to my well thought out conceptualizations of the many and varied delusions that I was affected by. The hallucinations, I was also suffering from, only caused me to perceive more validity in my delusions. Despite my persuasive efforts to convince everyone that what I thought was utterly true, they all had other beliefs about what was really going on in my complicated world.
I knew that I had to do something. I had to make some sort of move to escape my personal pain. I concluded that all I could do was embrace my true identity. I couldn't see any other options. I knew that I didn't want to die and go to Hell. I had to accept the fact that God was in control, not me. But it was very difficult to understand how and why God would make me the second coming of Christ. All I wanted to do was run and hide, but I couldn't, because there is no place you can hide from God.
The delusion that I was Christ was just one of the many myths that the voices told me were true. God was speaking to me, and I had no doubt in my mind that what I was hearing was indeed, His voice. I also had the ability to speak to live, and even dead, souls. But mostly it was the live souls of the people around me that I communicated with."
