Heya
Anyone here experience a sort of thought repression? Kind of like, after an episode or hallucination you forget it happened or deny it happened ? I find I do this a lot.
Today I was walking and I swear to god I saw a giant tiger looking over/peering around the side of a house, kinda like “where the wild things are” sort of thing. It was only for a split second, should I even take this as a hallucination, or maybe seeing things wrong and getting panicked? I don’t know.
Thank you

I cant say I forgoten hallucinations of either kind.
I did have frequent auditory hallucinations at onset.
I have had visual ones, but so short and so far apart (years!) that I never mention them even to a pdoc.
If they are new to you then there is no telling if visual ones will increse or not. I can tell you people with grequent visual hallucintions are much more rare than auditoy ones.
To up your chances of not developing them follow the commonly given advice:
If the hallucinations do start to increase then talk to your pdoc about it. I would not wait so long as to let it get out of hand though.
Yes, all time!!! I’ve read things that I’ve written while I was in the middle of an episode and it didn’t sound like me at all. I know I wrote it, but I can’t remember ever thinking or feeling the things I wrote.
Yea they’re pretty frequent- I’d say I have 20-30 peripheral movement or split second hallucinations a day? But I don’t know if I’m once again just seeing things wrong. Do you think that should be cause for concern, or me just being panicky?
YES THIS!! God I can barely recognize myself after I’m done an attack, it’s hard to even get in the mindset. I repress it so much I deny it even happened.
