Yep Journey Upward, all of that, and seeing fleeting shadows with no discernible shape, but mostly animals that aren't there. Distinct, clear animals. Occasionally people - saw a 'pile' of homeless people next to a shopping cart the other day when I came out of the shopping centre. It was only a second before I realised that I was wrong and the two or three colourfully dressed old people lying on the ground were actually a low growing patchy green ground cover. I mean we don't ever see anything like that around here for real, so where that came from, I have no idea ...
I have heard and seen things that aren't there all my life, and thought everyone did as part of a vivid imagination. My Pdoc doesn't agree, calls these experiences psychotic and thinks a CT scan is in order.
No thanks.
I guess we just live with the madness and accept it. It's only when the voices make you speak out loud in response in a public place or when the adrenaline pumps and you swerve to avoid a non-existent creature on the road that there is a problem.
