Am i schizo? or have i just fried my brain?
    #6801307 - 04/17/07 07:44 PM (17 years, 3 days ago)

Sometimes in my regular day I see some mild distortions of my vision...colors and just objects slightly enlarging...This has been a common occurance and sometimes it looks like there are lines of many colors in my vision (especially on a clear day when i've got a clear head)

This part is not the part that bothers me...

Rarely, I hear voices in my head, repeating phrases that I can't understand...over and over and over for maybe a minute in length, increasing in loudness, and getting scarier and scarier...it doesn't sound bad, but it is extremely bothersome and seem to envelope my entire conscious (as in I totally focus on this and absolutely nothing else)

This hasn't happened for a long time...it used to happen much more frequently but subsided when I started smoking heavily...it happened one more time after that, while i was high, and i sorta just laughed it off in seconds and it went away.

^THIS isnt even the part that bothers me (mostly because it has gone away)

The part that really makes me think that I'm schizo is the fact that sometimes (even in the daytime) i have straight up, balls to the wall hallucinations...And I can't tell if it is real or not

Like just a few minutes ago, i looked at the ground and saw what i thought was a bug wriggling and crawling around, but i blinked and looked at it and it was just a piece of carpet

Most of them happen at night though....especially when im sleeping/close to sleep...some of the most vivid ones where a giant baby (as tall as the ceiling) in my room, sitting indian style, bouncing around...another was I saw my grandma in my room, and she actually spoke to me (inaudible)...she also touched my knee and i could feel it.

They can range for things like that, which are super realistic, to wierd feelings in my body and seeing very psychedelic hallucinations, like objects completely distorted/moving around...

Usually (unless i can calm myself) these episodes are TERRIFYING...and sometimes can even send jolts of an indescribable feeling (somewhat painful) through my body, as if someone was kicking me/punching me...they are so terrifying i go into a state of conciousness where i can't even move....

however they dont happen whatsoever when i smoke, as in I go through an entire night of feeling perfectly normal...sometimes weeks/months at a time, and wake up as i should..without any terrifying feelings/seeing anything

talk to a pychotherapist. Issues like these need to be resolved with a mental help professional. Nobody here is going to be able to diagnose you, we dont know you or have any knowledge about your personal state of mind besides what you posted.

plz seek out someone to talk to before the conditon progresses.

I'm not sure how to explain some of the other stuff
but because you say that you experience these hallucinations and feelings when you're drowsy or falling asleep I'm inclined to say that they are occurrences of hypnogogia.
Here is what wikipedia says: Hypnagogic sensations collectively describe the vivid dream-like auditory, visual, or tactile sensations that can be experienced in a hypnagogic or hypnopompic state. These sensations can be accompanied by sleep paralysis, the sensation that the body is temporarily paralyzed after waking or before falling asleep.
sleep paralysis usually accompanies hallucinations. Many cultures mention this phenomenon in their myths and beliefs. In the Maritime provinces it's a visit from the Sea Hag, in Africa it's being ridden by the witch. crazy shit but a lot of people experience it, usually they feel a presence in the room, and feel like they can't move as if someones sitting on them.
anyways thats that, i dont know about the daytime and auditory hallucinations though, btw im a psych student :smile:

Hmmmm

what kind of meds will the doctor give me for something like this?

If its not anything good I don't really feel like dealing with profesional help... It's not like this intrudes on my everyday life and makes me unable to live like regular...I mean if im schizo there really isnt much i can do about it. And its not like im violent/bipolar or hyperactive so I doubt its gonna make me freak out and put tin foil on my head >_>

I know the difference between reality and absurdity

Might i suggest quiting the reefer as it might feel good while its affecting you but once it wears off its only going to make things worse.

Maybe you have Charles Bonnet Syndrome. people with this disorder are quite sane besides the fact that they hallucinate things like gnomes and fairy's. Might want to look into it

regardless of what research you do to self-diagnose yourself, you should def. speak with a couple different professions.

I think you answered your own question when you said you're smoking heavily.

Lay off all drugs for a month, and give your brain some time to heal. You'll feel a whole hell of a lot better.

I'd also recommend getting a good night's sleep and good nutrition (lean meats, legumes/tree nuts, complex carbs, and fruit).

Your condition could worsen until you no longer have any grip on reality at all. I would reccomend seeking professional help.
