When I was about 5 or 6, I became convinced that giants controlled us, like we controlled dolls (ex: Barbie), and that if you turned your head fast enough that you could see their fingers moving your body parts. When I realized that no matter how fast I turned my head I still couldnt see their fingers, I decided they were turning my head. I even tried to disprove my theory by moving in front of a mirror... but still decided that I was being controlled by giants and I was just a doll to them.

I wasn't too popular as a child and dreamed of being older(and therefore beautiful and loved)
I somehow onvinced myself that i was actually 16 years old ( i was probably 8 at the time) and in a coma.
My loving family were all sitting around my bed mopping my brow with a flannel and praying for me to wake up!!
I even dreamed up a boyfriend. I think i kept up that one till i was about 11, when i convinced myself i had a replacement arm given to me by aliens!

My brothers and sister were evil. When I was a child, they told me I was born in a cabbage patch, and they had the birht certificate to prove. When they showed me the certificate, it looked pretty official to me, being a kid, so I believed, until I was over and I found the 'certificate'. It was a leftover Cabbage Patch certificate my sister had from her dolls. They wrote my name on it and signed it. I was so decieved! lol.

when I was younger I used to read the comics and saw the thinking bubble on top of the characters head,I thought that whenever I would think the same thing would happen to me.I remember riding the bus and I would try not to thnk bad thoughts about people because I thought they would read what I was thinkng.So one day I was on the bus with my mom and this lady gave me a dirty look and I started to cry because I thought she read what I was thinking about her,then my mom explained to me that it cant happen.

when I was about four or five, i believed I was a fairy, because of this i thought i could fly, I tested it out by jumping down the stairs.

That really hurt.

I figured I coudn't use my powers for my own gain and dedicated my life to saving my mum from opening doors!

I hated doors because i thought they would bite my bum. EG, don't let the door bite you on the way out.

I used to believe that all adults turned into skeletons when I wasn't looking, and I thought the whole world was against me and always tried to trick me into their grasps but I always got away.

My little cousin was obsessed with Harry Potter, and one day she burst into my room saying she made a spoon levitate. I guess that incident made her think she had magical powers, and she thought on her eleventh birthday she would get an owl from the "Hogwarts" in our area. She just had her thirteenth birthday and she's still disappointed about it.

I used to believe that I was the only one in the world who swallowed, and thought I was weird because of it. I found out I wasn't the only one when I had a sore throat and my mum asked me if it hurt when I swallowed.

People. They were not real. They had created me. I was the only real one. The last. (first?) It took lots of hugs from my mom to convince me i was not alone.

Also!!! I wasn't that sure about God when I was little, so I decided God was real, but not what we thought. God was really aliens, and when we died they would take our brains and put them back into another body so we could 'live' foreverer and on... heheheheh

I used to believe that my house was under constant surveillance by the government and that the mirrors, TV screen, Computer Screen, and Windows were all two-way mirrors (like on cop shows), so I'd always pretend to do normal stuff around the mirrors like read a newspaper, listen to music while doing the dishes, or other stuff, to try and fool them into thinking I was just another regular person and they shouldn't be watching me.

When I was 6 or 7 I used to think that my index and middle finger were space travellers from another planet who had their own tv show on earth. They "space walked" everywhere, each time I went out that was a new episode. And I would announce it by saying "index and middle go to The store" Or wherever we were going.
The show eventually got cancelled.
