Have you hallucinated when reading - that is, read something that wasn’t really there? Was it obvious you were hallucinating, or did your hallucination seem very real?
I’m not sure if I hallucinated a Twitter tweet that didn’t really exist. I’m wondering how common this sort of thing is.
Yeah you’re not alone. I always catch it though, maybe even sense that it’s going to happen a little bit. Typically it’s just a word gets replace. A fraction of a second later I’ve reread it properly.
semi-common to me anyways. I don’t do the whole ‘twitter’ thing, but I have hallucinated writing before. I’ve also confused letters and twisted written word to read the way I preferred it read than the way it actually was. I think you experienced something common.
I have recently experienced this phenomena. I was reading my kindle when the words began addressing me personally, to quit reading and go kill myself. Very scary!
The very last time I did LSD I tried reading the Bible but the words moved backwards, then spun around, and entire sentences slid right off the page into thin air…
I had this theory that my mind was removing the top surface of the ink off the page because every time i tried to look back at the sentence it would slip off the page again…however the next day the words were intact…
Other than that with known cause of the hallucination, I have only seen things in slogans that say something other than what they are, for example “Community Action” I read “Communist Action”
Yes I have!! I know this is an old post but this has never come to my attention - I have hallucinated while on my phone and even on books/magazines once in a while. Sometimes I think the screen on the phone is going nuts, sometimes it scrolls up, but when it stops I’m back where I was. I even sometimes see little signs that are not there (sometimes they have no meaning to anyone but they make perfect sense to me).
I had big problems with this earlier this fall, I would hallucinate really startling words constantly. It hasn’t been a problem for the past few months, though.
