  • Thanks for your take. Not even a hallucination by the wikipedia definition, there was no interference with senses or what’s in the current environment. If one wants to find some kind of a metaphysical analogue, it could be like gaining a memory of an event from another plane but I digress. It is what it is.

    I’m more worried about people not recognizing what humans have always done but maybe disregard.



  • dooderoni nothing in this is caused by voices or sights that aren’t there or difficulties to distuingish what’s present or in the current space, no extra thought patterns, paranoia, mood effects etc.

    I appreciate the concern and other commenters went there too. Even in online pre-screening quizzes none of the symptoms are anywhere related.

    People don’t need doctors when they remember where their keys are or get an external inspiration and such.






  • Practicing can alleviate aphantasia and it matches how people describe an internal screen. Like your watching stuff inside your head. It’s kinda flat and small and contained in a way, distinctly different than how people do out of body experiences for example.

    Also one difference I’ve noted in descriptions and myself is that imagining can repeat. You imagine something and can do it multiple times quite accurately. Whereas an experience gets kinda corrupted, lost in memory. I have no way to repicture this event with my mind/imagination so I took to 3d tools.

    I don’t see much as mystical anymore.


  • Asking is probably not usual. Some scientists do their thesises through seeing the result first. It’s different to imagine something internally than to “go to”/“get” something else, the latter being something that someone else knows as well rather than self-born. Although I guess one could expand to the thought that everything internal ultimately is everything external yada yada
