A lot of my visuals are very life like, but if it weren’t for odd things, I wouldn’t know they were hallucinations.
For example, if the cat who was talking to me (externally), didn’t talk to me, or wasn’t about 3 ft tall, I wouldn’t have known he was a hallucination. Otherwise he was solid, and acted much like a normal house cat.
I do sometimes worry maybe some people I see, or even animals, aren’t actually there.

Certain things I see are just so impossible I know it’s fake even if it looks real. Other things I do think are real at least for a moment. For example I see my ex a lot and it like snaps my kids d for a minute and I try talking to her SNAPS MY MIND wtf is with auto correct lol

Oh okay thanks for answering my question, I’m sorry if it bothered anybody to ask, I was just curious how accurate the movies I’ve seen are. As far as voices go, I’ve heard voices that were indistinguishable from real voices.

I don’t think I’ve experienced this. There were times I’ve been so in my head I didn’t move for hours, but I don’t think it’s equable.

I mean being frozen, or stuck, so deep in your mind, you don’t even consider moving, but I don’t think it would be catatonia.

I could always tell the difference between reality and my visual hallucinations.
My visuals looked like they were made of energy, and they were translucent, and I saw them with my mind, not with my eyes, but they where “out there” not inside my head. Usually heads floating around. Very strange.
I don’t have them anymore since being on meds.

Oh yeah I’m a little confused on what Catatonia really is. But I think contorting is defiantly in that category🤷♀️

Yeah I just know it happened to me when I was locked up and my neck bent so far back I thought it was gonna break. The doctor said it was Catatonia

I was on olanzapine at first, I am now on Lurasidone.
I also saw these visuals shoot out of peoples faces sometimes, that was disturbing sometimes if I was having a conversation with them.
It was a surreal experience but I don’t miss them.

Loll I’ll take the bad with the good. I honestly don’t mind the bad ones I see, but I don’t feel fear like others feel fear, I suspect.
