A “6th sense” or extracampine hallucination is where you “sense” something or someone is there but you don’t see or hear them.

I’m sure I did before I was medicated.

Yes, especially when I was younger and before meds.

Nowadays it still happens, but nowhere near to how bad it was before— knock on wood.

Yes, very, very bad. I have it whenever I’m psychotic a lot. There would be times where I would feel like people are watching me, actually, I have that a lot.

I didn’t even know this was a thing.

Some people claim humans have an innate ability to tell when someone is watching them… I call BS on this though. As far as hallucinations in that realm… no? I don’t think so. I think for me the reason for this is because I hallucinate so many voices (and previously images) that there’s always at least one voice or image to accompany every “presence” i feel.

Yeah, I read a study that debunked that. It is b.s.
