The stuff we think about on a daily basis do not exist outside of our brains. They are only hallucinations which we cannot control because our brains do not connect with others. It’s okay to hallucinate weirdness so long as you do not act on the visions or carry them out. 
Never hallucinated… but still sz…!!
Have you ever been psychotic?
Dont have positive symptoms at all… just disorganised thought… no voice no hallucination no delusion… diagnosis is kind of compelx…
But i almost have all the negative and cognitive symptoms… like flat effect apathy avolition anhedonia lack of focus and concerntation…short attentiom span… weak working memory… lack of planning and organising skills… almost all…
@FaveDaveSchiz I respectively disagree. For me the voices I have had were a separate consciousness, a separate will, from my own. I do not use the explanation that they are my own thoughts in my own head. There needs to be a better explanation.
I agree with you @FaveDaveSchiz. The tendency is to attach some type of meaning or organization to the voices or other hallucinations. This just lead to being emotionally volatile and developing delusions or delusional thoughts and can contribute to a sense of alienation or isolation. Usually the hallucinations are negative in nature and can lead to self harm or feelings of persecution, guilt, etc. I have experienced positive voices as well, they can be somewhat comforting at times, but can also lead to delusions of grandeur and false beliefs that you are someone of greater importance than who you really are. Both are dangerous to act on or think too much about. Some people do not want to believe that they are hallucinating, they prefer to believe these hallucinations point to a certain reality. Some find themselves enjoying the importance they feel or just wanting to cling to delusions or delusional thoughts for their own reasons. But I have learned through experience that it’s best to control certain syptoms with medication and to try to ignore hallucinations the best you can once you’ve stabalized. Schizophrenia is a biological ilness that needs medical treatment. I know that there will be many who disagree with this post, the experiences I had are not what others have experienced and everyone is different. This is just my opinion.
I never have had visual hallucinations. But I had a theory that hallucinations come from parallel universes or at least could be real or exist in a parallel universe. Like seeing into another world. Some things can’t exist like seeing a pink unicorn but if you hallucinate a cat, that could have been real at some point in the multiverse.
I believe they are in our heads though. I mean no one else sees them or believes them. You can probably pinpoint them in the brain like in the visual or occipital lobe.
I have had similar thoughts. I sometimes even think what we hear comes from a parallel universe.
I saw a black cloud that wanted to kill me and second later i saw a cat. Therefore i made my brain produse a pic of a black killing cloud and a cat. I must be a catlover and fond of black clouds. I wish to learn to produse more hallucinations…like a handsome guy looking at me…or a dog…or davinchi painting.
All I know is my experiences cannot be explained by the reasons we have available today.
The brain is capable of far more possibilities than we can comprehend or control, so until we do, all we can do is control that which bothers us most so we can lead more productive lives.
