Is God really deluded or are people simply real?
There is no such thing as absolute certainty, except the certainty of this statement.

Does God say to Himself: cogito ergo sum? Or does He maybe even have something better.

They don't just effect you psychological such that if you think your good but do bad deeds that you don't think too much about, it doesn't effect you negatively. It doesn't matter how guilty or not guilty you are about it, you inherit your acts and become either more good or less good.
And I would like to add, this judgement reckoning to who we are, is properly basic belief of humans, that we take for granted by just knowing ourselves and what it means to be who we are. This is one of the signs of the Lord of the universe who judges and brings souls into account. So, you went from Muslim to agnostic to deist and now you're back on the crazy train? Just what the hell are you even talking about here? It is not rational to jump from "People have consciences" to this is "signs of the Lord of the universe who judges and brings souls into account." That's just nutty.
