OK, what is this in plain english? I will talk to T about it next week, but I just realised, I dont really know exactly how that happens and how it works, its like some sort of magic trick, a trick of the eye. But it fits and thats just how I experience the world, as chaotic and frightful and to think its coming from me? how? wouldnt I know? obviously not.

To me this sounds like it is your mind's way of expressing a very strong underlying fear by creating a safer (albeit still scary) memory/experience/visualization. Is this an actual hallucination - in that you think it is real and are experiencing it in real time - or is it an image/sound that flashes into your head that you see with only with your mind's eye?
