The stuff that was psychosis, I eventually learned to recognize, because it often came along with disorganization, agitation, anxiety, paranoia.

Sometimes at night, and occasionally during the day, I see what I guess you would call "spirits" and they seem to ask me for help. Sometimes I don't see them but I feel them, as if there's a outline in space where they are. Like a weight, a heaviness.

I ran into a psychic completely randomly in a coffee shop once and I did a tarot card reading for her and she in turn gave me a reading and told me I had psychic ability (yeah I know, she may just be going by the fact that I read tarot, but she said a lot of other things that fit). I go through phases where I seek out information about psychic phenomena, and I go through phases where I don't care/don't believe. But even in those phases, things happen. Synchronicity, coincidences, energy. It comes when I'm stable.

And sure, I feel connected to EVERYTHING when I'm manic too, but I can differentiate mania from normal. Manic experiences are paired with intense elation, intense confidence, intense conviction. Regular experiences, half the time I'm like "What the **** am I doing?"

Sorry for hijacking your thread. I'm just passionate about this stuff.

Underneath this skin there's a human
Buried deep within there's a human
And despite everything I'm still human
I think that I'm still human
