Well it's the big glearing hole in the theory and asking to avoid discussing it is like OZ asking for Dorothy and company to ignore the guy behind the curtain.
Despite writing a whole lot, you don't really answer the question. "A couple of volunteers in control groups" is not the answer but a couple of random people off the street are?
Now, the idea of the thread is to help people experiencing this but how do you help those who are delusional? I don't think playing along is going to help them.

It was as if a false persona had been instilled in me, a racist, bigoted, perverted, one hell of a malicious spirit that was desperately trying to make itself me. I fought, and continue to fight it to this day, but thank fully I have recovered to a significant degree.
I still deal with social difficulties, and no one will hire me, despite having a fair amount of technical skills, a college education, and my true nature which is being a very generous and kind, understanding person.
And one more thing, I am one resilient asshole
If it is true that I have dealt with some nasties outside of my own mind concocting this crap, you can bet there will be justice of a grand nature in the future.

You might think you have answered but you have not. You're right, it isn't a debate.
The OP may not have been about the delusional but they are part of the population which you are talking about. How do you intend to help them if your not willing to include them in the discussion?

I am reading and understanding your answers but they are not really answering my question. Sorry, but it is what it is.
I'm not labelling anyone. I have not proposed anything.
I also notice a lack in the actual strategies. One guy wrote a letter and someone else mentioned canalizing emotional energy. Neither sounds like tech blocking. It would seem that there are no tech blocking strategies so, maybe your right there is no way to relieve their delusions.

I'm here to discuss the controversial topic. Yes, you trying to convince me with unconvincing arguments is a waste of your time.
I answer in short comments because there is nothing for me to explain. Just because I disagree with you doesn't mean that I don't understand what you are saying.

I beg to differ: you have labelled people who aren't authentically experiencing what I describe as delusional. This is a label, yes.
You are really something else. I looked at your profile. It said you had authored all kinds of threads, but when I clicked on the link to see them, just to get a grasp of where you are coming from, nothing came up. I wonder why.
You have supplied not one logical answer to the contrary. And your labeling my arguments as unconvincing with things like, that's a cop out says absolutely nothing. When confronted with logical answers, one would think you could come up with something at the very least more creative in the area of making sense of why it doesn't answer your question.
This is my last response to you. I am sick of dealing with your negativity. There is a way to disagree and still be civil. You have been pushing that to the very limit. Remain unconvinced. And find someone else to try to make a fool of, for that seems to be your interest.
