Get checked for schizophrenia
Hi so I'm genuinely an inpatient psychiatric nurse.
OP is maaaybe describing a hallucination, but they're not reporting paranoia, their language choice doesn't exhibit disorganization, and they're not arguing any observable fact, they're just speculating on a spiritual / metaphyiscal interpretation of the world. Hallucinations themselves even have a wide variety of interpretations outside of the western world that are not pathalogical in nature, and often people in those cultures with similar neuroatypicalities live much longer happier lives compared to those in western society. And even if we do classify it as a hallucination, that doesn't even mean schizophrenia. They can be singularly spontaneous and never occur again, they can be drug induced whether as part of individual's healthy or unhealthy use, or in many cases as part of a cultural or spiritual ritual.
Please stop spreading misinformation in my sub about BOTH mental illness AND spirituality or I'm gonna ban you. Or you can feel free to use the block button to block things you don't personally want to see. That's what it's for.
Thank you, dear @Apytele@sh.itjust.works , for the marvel you do...
May you have success, stability, and peace...
Please stay safe!
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.
So anyway, what the fuck is this thing you made? Spinning circles? Looks like harmonics.
You know... Something like this:

The synthesis from the other thread is some kind of a multidimensional gimbal lock that displays quantum superpositions getting aligned in a pulse
Look I don't even really get into metaphysics for the most part I tend to prefer the more grounded spiritual aspects but a) math / geometry itself is pretty damn grounded and b) the fascists won't see much of a difference while they're gunning us down so there's not much point in me trying to create a divide between us either.
I'm sometimes interested in how math and quantum physics continue to re-describe some kind of ancient knowledge of our universal connection.
The fash are using horoscopes and esoteric rituals to fuck with us so we might as well learn why.
Oh I love me a good esoteric ritual. Gives my subconscious a nice open conduit to yell at me through. Tarot cards are my particular jam. I use the astrology aspect mostly for scheduling observances.
yeah any tools/practices to learn about the subconscious, share or invididual based on philosophies, is rebellion in this age of attention stealing forced energy drainage.
Im not trying to spread misinformation. That was merely a test to see how convicted you are to percieving the holy patterns of the metaphysical world. Congratulations, you passed, please await further instructions.

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.
And that every single schizo on this planet claims to be perfectly lucid doesnt concern you, because youre just build different, i guess
You should see a doctor because you are schizophrenic. Don't believe me? That's the schizophrenia talking.
I'm saying that the disorder has actual distinct symptoms to it. And many of the patients and their doctors recognize them and notice a difference during care etc.
I'm not built different, nor displaying anything spectacular or worrisome.
