Ever scince i could remember i always had some strange obsession with closed eye visuals and the imagination. When i was in pre school when i was boared i would shut my eyes tightly forcing a wave of closed eye pattersns onto the blank screen of my eyelids, in fact i have gotten to a point that i can somone vivid closed eye visual similar to that wittnessed when smoking cannabis. i find my self in the middle of class drawing phsycedlic images composed of swirling lines and letting my hand take over alowing myself to slip into a trance like state becoming overtaken by the "creative spirit". I sometimes think i am set apart from every one else, my mindset configure differently from most, im not a freak or anything i am a normal guy, just theres something internaly i dont know. Believe it ofr not ive never done shrooms yet but i have this preconcived noton that it will help me tranced temperarly to another plane of thought, as well as existance, just a temporary visit to a higher existance. i dont know, all i want to know is AM I ALONE and is my thinking somewhat... unhealthy?, or am i just some wing nut...

Hey, I used to do the same things, shut my eyes real tight and watch the colors/patterns, draw curving lines and just let the pencil follow it's own path... You are definitly not alone in anything you've said here. As for being unhealthy? I don't think so, but don't feel to bad about being a wing nut. We're all a little crazy

sometimes sobriety and groundedness can be good too.
i do the letting my hand draw thing too, but i just start scribbling/scractching rhythmically and let it do what it will.
sometimes the stuff it's come up with has freaked me out.

Om Namah Shivaya, I tell you What!

I'm not sure why this is:
but I have closed eye visuals all the time and they don't bother me/entertain me. They are just kind of there.
It's an assortment of blues and things that form in patterns sometimes.
So even on shrooms I never notice closed eye visuals (maybe cause I always have them).
Anyway it doesn't sound like a big neough problem to effect your daily life and I dout shrooms will make a big deal.
Edit: By big deal I meant cause a serious problem.

There was actually a thread about this in a Pub a while ago. It was hilarious. It was like everyone was having an epiphany because they all thought they were the only crazies that did the eye trick.
I used to do that shit as a kid all the time. Maybe that's one of the traits that drew us all to the Shroomery. I used to do it when I was bored in Church, but then it goes to a kind of spiritual level and I gained a deep appreciation for a lot of things in my messed up childhood.

You'll put less strain on your eyes if you use your fingers and lightly push against your closed eyes. In a few seconds the CEV's will come pouring in.
