I think I had my first visual hallucination a few months back

I never thought I would have a hallucination, let alone a visual one. I have always been a meat and potatoes (strictly delusions) kind of sz.

But…a few months back…my mom said something about how spiders dangling from webs…i dont remember her exact wording…but a short time later I saw this like almost transparent (i think it was orangish, been awhile so i cant remember) web line hanging from the ceiling with a spider attached to it. It was kind of arcade like.

Anywho, i put my hand up to go through it to see if it was real and my hand passed right through it.

Weird ■■■■. I thought I was immune to that stuff.

Damn, didn’t think that was possible. Are you sleeping better now? Hope you get it sorted

I am sleeping a bit better now. I still dont sleep the whole night through, but its better than it used to be.

Oh good man. Sleep is meant to flush out the stuff in your brain while you sleep. I’ve been reading up on sleep.

Abilify should help you get the rest you need. Best of luck

I think my first hallucination happened around 2015. I think I saw a UFO, but it may have not been real. I don’t know. It’s not important to read into it. I guess my point is I got sick in 2011, and had my first hallucination 4-5 years later. It depends on the individual, I guess.

I don’t know how common it is, but it happens. My hallucinations revolve around things, ideas or topics I would think about, then it would play out into some kind of twisted story so intricate I would never have been able to make it up on my own.

I didnt mean that she “put the hallucination in my head” I meant more like she put the idea of the hallucination in my head subconsciously. At the time I thought it was something else…

I’ve had many major visual hallucinations usually tho they don’t bother me like voices occasionally tho they do like the guy covered in blood for example

My main form of hallucinating, is visual. Although I do get auditory and tactile hallucinations, as well. Anyways, the visual ones affect me the most. It can be quite disturbing. Fortunately, I have pretty good insight so I can usually tell when something is a hallucination or not

Sorry you are going through this, Bowens
