I always feel these things inside of me destroying my insides. It almost feels like bugs under my skin moving around. But it is the tiny machines the government implanted in me. The psychologist/ psychiatrist thinks it is a tactile hallucination. I think it is real. I want to cut them out so badly. It is very severe today for some odd reason. Almost the whole day non stop. I've been seeing things too but not that severe. So, does anyone have experiences with tactile hallucinations? What are they like and how do you stop them? Its been getting worse even though I take my meds everyday. The meds work for awhile and then suddenly stop out of the blue. It is because of my autism, according to this expert I went to, he said that meds react differently in a person with autism. I feel like I am going to die because of the gov and aliens. I do not want to go on Clozaril because to me it is a poison drug. It literally kills people. The aliens want me because I am special for them. The gov put these machines inside of me because as you have probably seen in other threads, I have been accused through thought insertion of a lot of bad things. Then I suddenly move like a robot and have no feelings and not aware of whats going on around me and I walk really slow. Almost as slow as my brother who is slower than a sloth. This is when the gov controls my movements as well and its hard to fight it off. I yell back at them and say, "stop controlling me!!!!" The good news is that my case worker said I am NOT psychotic unlike what the other doctors have said. To me that is good. I hope to God that is a tactile hallucination and not real but I think its real. But I want to know your experiences. Sometimes I even feel things in my brain that I supposedly have. Me have a brain? What's that? Hopefully I get responses.

You have a brain like the rest of us. Things go on in that brain; you think you are being controlled but you really do not know what is doing it.

The only tactile "hallucinations" I think I have had do not sound like yours. When I was young and ill with a fever or such, I felt that my arms and legs were puffed up -- like they were made of styrofoam or something. My sense of space was distorted. Brains can make you feel things like that.

Firebird, that sounds more like a delusion than a tactile hallucination, possibly a combination of both, I suppose.

I have tactile hallucinations from time to time, mostly feeling like bugs are on my skin, crawling on my skin. I usually ride it out but I get very fidgety and just constantly check to see the bugs that aren't there. Lasts a couple hours usually, for me.

hello!! i recently registered myself here in PC, and im getting scared of how much the experiences down here are just like mine. I hadnt been with a T but i really want to. Does feeling like somebody is hiting you count as a tactile hallucination? Sometimes my bed grabs me, and the bats on my roof try to tell me something at night. When i read it, sound funny, but i dont know if im ... crazy?...?!?
