being watched

as a child watching soaps like dallas and falcon crest i used to think the only reason that people would let us watch their intimate moments was cause they were watching us too.i'd have periods were everything i did was done for the benefit of the secret audience in far away america!!!

When i was in my early teens, after watching so many action movies do to with spies, secret agents and crimials. my over active imagination made me to believe that my house was bugged, that there where cameras in the mirrors and speakers recording throughout the radios, tv and phonelines. This really freaked me out that i have never gotten over this possibility and still to this day believe in this.

i believed that everything in my room was watching me, from my posters to my teddies.
i had this really cute poster of a sleeping dog and i was SURE its eyes opened once or twice!

I thought that there were microphones in TV's and when you would hear people laughing during sitcoms, it was other people who were watching the show. I would yell into the TV and try to get the other people to hear me.

I used to belive that the sitcoms i watched on tv were the housed of people in my nieghborhood. And that the audience laughing in the background were other neighbors watching the same people i was. Then i got scared when i realized that somone might be watching me.

***I used to believe that everytime i had a crush on someone that person would spy on me at my house so when i got dressed or undressed ui would try to cover myself as well as i could. i guess i was just perinoid*

I used to think my sister's Blink 182 poster was staring at me went I was changing. I actually glared at it and told it I knew it was watching me. Also, my cousin told me that this picture of this creepy lady-- it was the kind where her eyes follow you-- would know if I went in the room without my cousin's permission... creepy.

I used to think that my life was a tv show, eveything i would do and say, would be watched by people who liked my life

When I was little, I believed that, on Earth, we were living in some type of experimental world...like we were traped in a cage and being observed by someone-possibly aliens. I tried to figure out what E.A.R.T.H. stood for as if it was the name of some big top secret experiment. I thought that there were cameras EVERWHERE! I thought they were behind every mirror, in the ceiling, in closets, behind chalkboards, in street lamps and traffic lights, in trees, by windows, in cars, in pictures, in clocks, in floors and sidewalks....even in bathrooms! I was horrified at the thought! I was always trying to hide from the cameras.

When I was younger, I believed that there were people with video camera hiding in places and filming everything they saw, and that was what TV and movies were. I also thought that cartoons were real, and wondered how they got their eyes to bug out so far!

I used to think that they made TV shows by placing hidden cameras in other people's houses so I used to check every coner of my house just in case.

I used to believe that every one watched me... like i would live my life, and do regular stuff and people would go on with there business... but i always had that feeling that every time i turned around every "thing" would watch me... like my reflection, and then when i turned around they would be normal! I grew out of that but it sort of still feels like it!

I once watched this show where they put hidden cameras around the house to see if someone was breaking the law as reported by next door neighbors. They placed their cameras inside a "blinking" alarm clock.

Everytime I see a VCR with a "blinking" 12:00, I would instantly think that someone is watching me, so I would always cover it up with something, so that they couldn't see me.

The closing lines of the TV show Candid Camera "Some day, somewhere, when you least except it, Someone may step up to you and say, "Smile, you're on Candid Camera!"" made quite an impression on me because I would think I was possibly being taped for Candid Camera. I would explain what I was doing for the benefit of the TV audience as I went about my day, waiting for Alan Funt to step out and say those famous words.

I used to think that the picture on my Lennon Legend DVD box was watching me. I still yurn it over when I go to sleep, lest it come to life.
