The thing about the scientific community, @Historylover , is that they all get to pick and choose which scientific proofs they choose to acknowledge. It's often marketed as a completely unbiased culture; but the reality is that the scientific community is as biased and corrupt as any human institution.

To be frank, I don't know if it would be the most effective strategy to try to prove the existance of telepathy in your hearing. I suspect your judges have probably already made their mind up about such matters, and the validity/relevance of any scientific evidance you might lean on to that end. As I say, they get to pick and choose what scientific evidance they adhere to.

If your goal is to simply get out of that place, you might need to betray yourself to some extent. You might need to agree with their claims that certain ideas you hold to be sacred truths are, in fact, delusions.

I had to agree that my life was fine, based solely on the fact that "I had enough money", in order to be let out of my own therapy situation. Pretending that life revolves first and foremost around money/materialism was more offensive to me then you can possibly imagine. But agreeing to the lie got me out of that hell.

Sometimes you've just got to pick your battles, I think.
