Hi Woops,

I hope you never experience that again. We'll keep the light on far ya ok?

Take care now

Do you believe it was a hallucination? I know it seemed very real, but we don't really experience "reality." We perceive it. Our brains take in in stimuli from our senses and interpret it, then we feel, see, smell, taste, or hear what our brains show us. This is why hallucinations seem so real. People can hear a hallucinated voice as clear as if another person was actually standing there, talking to them. A person can hallucinate something that looks just as real as something that is actually there. If it were easy to tell the difference, a lot of people wouldn't need medication because they could just ignore things that they knew weren't real. To the person experiencing the hallucination, it is real.

Since you posted this on the Schizophrenia forum, I'm assuming that you have been diagnosed with that. Is that right? Have you been taking your medication? If this was something that really happened, that you really got shocked, taking your medication would prove that it wasn't just a hallucination if it happens again.

Please follow your doctor's advice and if this happens again when you are on your medication, then you should investigate it further. Maybe there is something funny about the electricity on the porch that needs to be inspected.

I wish you all the best. Take care.

I was on my medication at the time, yes. Wouldn't a hallucination mean that it wouldn't be painful as it was very painful, I've been shocked badly before in my childhood, it was even worse than that. And it was as real as could be.

There are strange things that have happened that pretty much prove this isn't a disease, however after taking medication for a long long time I can't remember or put it together, my mind is mush now, which is strangely enough where my strange behaviour comes from.

I don't know about the others of millions, I really hope they aren't going through the same thing, if they are, we've all got some major problems to deal with here.

This was not a hallucination, and it's quite possible that even the rest of these people aren't hallucinating by definition of the word hallucination or schizophrenic, there is a little more to it I believe.

And believe me, there wasn't anything funny about the electricity on the porch, there wasn't any source where I was standing.

Then what do you think it is? Something internal or external?

Thats the problem, Im not to sure about what it is exactly.

I do know however that my problem isnt a disease.

Perhaps its an external problem causing some internal effects.

Nobody finds this post interesting?

Being shocked seemingly magically by something doesn't raise any questions or anything?

No one has anything to say?

I believe you when you say it was more than a hallucination. You know, that dark sinister face you described could very well fit the dark sinister angel mentioned numerous times in the Bible,Satan. I would encourage you to seek help from from a loving , Bible- believing Christian to pray with you and discern whether the devil is merely trying to scare you or whetyher he has a stronghold in your life, in which case the only wayfor you to experience freedom is to have that bondage and posession broken by the power of Jesus Christ. Read the Bible. It has all the answers for you. Trust me. I've been there. I know what I'm talking about. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help you. I can get a bible to you, and I would be willing to try to find somebody in your area who can help you deal with the powers of darkness that are trying to overtake you. By all means , do not listen to anything that horrid creature spirit thing that you saw tells you to do. Free in Christ

If you read a little into the physics of electricity I think you'll get a better understanding of what's going on. In order for a body to cary lode it has to form a path from the soure of the voltage to ground. Houses and appartments are built on concrete or wood because those surfaces iterfere with that path to ground and discourage lightning strikes. Eletricity can come from a number of sources but in order for you to be shocked you have to form that circuit, standing on the cement foundation, even if you're leaning on the building, would be difficult for you to get a significant shock.

The reality is most likely that you felt a sensation caused by a neurochemical reaction, a hulicination. In addition at that time you saw an unusual face in a location where it was inplausible that a face would occur. It stands to reason that the face was also a halucination.

If these things are happenning often it may be time to talk to your doctor about your medication. It's likely the brand or dosage isn't working.

I would love a bible jesus for alvin.

Just the right one thats all, and not only that, reading sometimes causes more problems than good, better yet, I want god himself to tell me the truth himself, you really can't trust books.

Especially books that have been changed over time.

I would much enjoy certain bibles, only with the right guidance.

And wolf, your post is quite frightening really, Im, we, are all sick of people telling us things like that, and you wonder why we are paranoid, I've seen proof.

Woops this is the second post were you've talked about very normal circumstances of divergent psychosis. You are hallucinating. In this post you've described something that cannot be real. Both times I've told you that you need to continue to take your medication and if it's not working you need to consult your doctor. I'm not your daddy. I've told you what's in the best interest of your health. You lose nothing but a little of your time by doing so. If you don't want to take my advice I'm not going to give you any more.

You aren't my daddy? Because I thought that you were.

This wasn't a hallucination, that is all that there is to it, and don't worry, Im taking my pills.

perhaps you shouldn't be giving advice at all, because you don't even know whats happening to us. Maybe I should be giving you the advice, on schizophrenia anyway.

Woops, you need to define your comment on books that have been changed over time. Are you saying because the bible has been transalated from different languages,and the english language has changed over time that the bible is not reliable. I find that interesting because I have been so amazed at how the bible has been preserved over the course of time. If you do research on the different english transalations, despite the big fuss that some people are making about it, there really is no difference in meaning, there's only a difference in the modernity of the language. I would advise you to just get a bible and read it as though it is your only hope, because that is in reality what it is. I gather that you are on lot's of medication, which in all fairness does help to mute the symptoms, but very obviously does'nt solve the problem. Turning in desperation to our Creator for help is very obviously the only solution, Because He and only He knows our real needs and how to fix our problems that mankind has Brought on himself by sin. As I said before I would be glad to send you a bible and\ or try to connect you with bible-believing christians who can help you if you desire.

Are you kidding? Accepting the Holy Bible as a historically complete document is absolutely gullible. The story of Jesus turning his cheek when struck was completely missing from versions of the bible prior to King James, completely manufactured to suit political beliefs of the church in that time. Entire books of the Bible have been edited out over time, much of the writings of the apostles was rejected in the formation of the Bible originally. The Book is a fine guide for living, it contains a lot of practical wisdom and the current teachings of the church but it is nothing more than binding covers and pages.

It has been changed that is all that Im saying.

Who would or should turn the other cheek and let somebody strike the other?

That doesn't make any sense. Why would you do that?

Would you care to explain alvin? Why turn the other cheek and let him strike the other.

And why if you are all powerful and all loving allow this to continue, why not stop it while you are here.

I can think of alot of things that jesus should have done instead of get murdered.

It's becomes more and more obvious whats going on here daily, and what kind've being would create such a thing, and who truly is in charge doesn't it?

Wolf, do you know Greek ? Have you read the ancient manuscripts. Basically, what are you basing your conclusions on. Fact or Opinion. I am not trying to belittle you in any way. I am merely giving recognition to the fact that there is much material to be read on the accuracy of the Bible, and it totally depends on what one reads as to the conclusions that one draws. I see the same struggle between evolutionists and Creationists. There are some very talented individuals out there with a fabulous talent for throwing out some very serious questions. How about THE DAVINCI CODE, DAN BROWN . Great literary work . Nothing documented. My question for you is have you personally researched credible sources such as actual copies of manuscripts, or are you just buying into a cheap theory that is based on questions and not fact. Please don't be offended, I say this because your comment is about a serious issue. Life or Death. God or no God .

Wolf, the comment on Jesus turning his cheek, did you ever read the origianal preface to the KJV Bible. The transalators of that version were comissioned by King James, who if he would have wanted to change a doctrine, he would have been deleting the account of Jesus turning his cheek,not adding. The viewpoint that the transalators of that version had was anything but non-resistant.
