Just curious.....

When I'm having an episode, sometimes i see images or menacing figures that seem to jump at me from behind but then its gone in an instant.

What do others see....

Sounds like shadow people to me. I don't see them so much anymore after started on 400Mg seroquel. I do sometimes now see fluffy lions out of the corner of my eye or see through a wall. Sometimes I try a technique my therapist suggested and close my eyes when I'm seeing things but when I do I see other things with my eyes closed like from another dimension.

All sorts of things, but not as much as auditory hallucinations.

The scariest one was a demon in the corner of my room. It was such an ugly, mostly green, spiky thing. It screamed and made a dive for me, then vanished. I was shaken for a long time.

Other experiences were less terrifying, like a pair of ferocious dogs chasing each other around my legs for the best part of an hour.

That's what my doc calls them too.
