the thing I discovered with hallucinations Clinte, and I admit now that I had horrendous experiences and caused by way too many drugs for far too long. I am not naturally predisposed to hallucinating allthough now some still linger.

they present in such a way that they are "the unknown"...when in actual fact they are really the "known"...just for being there.

the unknown bit is what they might do or are capable of. I climbed up the outside of a building one night eight floors up...twice! because the devil was chasing me and wanting me to jump off. this was after years of things equally diabolical and all trying to kill me and it was not until I stood up to it....gave myself credit for believing it validated my fears and decided I was not crazy or weak or something.

they left me alone...sure it went on continued and 'harrassment' I call it I just ....

like you did Clinte..."shut the door"
