i don't know if that makes sense, but whenever i start holding specifically a paranoid belief, it helps me to make up a fake counter-fact.

it's a little dangerous because i am still making myself believe in things contrary to reality, but so far it's worked without me losing myself in them.

a little example and of course tw for unreality, hallucinations and potentially paranoia inducing thoughts:

i always was incredibly terrified about something unknown being in my apartment - chasing me, watching me sleep, etc - to the point i started hallucinating it. but then i gave the "thing" a name and some rules, and now i'm (mostly) okay!

if i hear something at night, especially auditory hallucinations i can simply blame my "thing" flatmate, Adrien. he KNOWS he's not supposed to come into my room at night! he can roam freely when i'm out of the house, but once i'm home he has to stay in the other room.

he's also not allowed in the bathroom, which has greatly alleviated my reflection induced hallucinations (i barely get them at all anymore!)

I actually love this, it made me giggle. I'm such a fan of out-of-the-box coping strategies (as long as they aren't harmful of course). Especially with psychotic symptoms, they are usually nonsensical, so your own way of dealing with it can be kinda nonsensical too.

I myself have created similarly strange coping skills that have actually helped me a lot over the years. Like naming my cat Demon (what I called my old persistent hallucination). So now instead of being like "what's that noise at night??? Is it Demon??? >:0" I will be like "what's that noise at night? Is it my sweet baby boy Demon?! :D". I also love putting stuff like "creepy" dolls or a full size skeleton, and other Halloween decorations in my apartment, because that way the hallucinations can kinda just blend in, and I'm more desensitized to seeing random eyes staring at me in the dark lol.

A user in my Fin Fin discord, Bex, found many images of a previously unknown Fin Fin doll. It was apparently designed by Maru Yacco (a queer female artist!).

Happy Fin Fin Friday!

Come on, give us a smile!

Otherwise, what did we construct your face for?

We gave you a couple extra teeth just to make sure its a nice smile!

Or maybe you'd rather tell us a story?

That is a popular form of human expression, we think!

And what good timing too! Because we are currently looking for writers (among others) for our podcast!

Echoes of the Eldritch is a Magnus Archives fan podcast that takes place in one of the other universes that the fears got sent to. It follows a new archival crew, in a new archive learning to deal with their newly changed world!

And, until the 15th November you have the chance to apply to be a script and plot writer!

We are additionally looking for statement writers, artists, editors and voice actors (for a few remaining roles) and all of those openings will be open indefinitely!

To apply, join our discord!

You can ask questions and find more info right here on this blog! We will be happy to see you!

And in the meantime, don't worry about the doll that appeared on your bookshelf over night, we just put her there cause she needs a friend :)
