Imagination- Or Real Halusinations.......?
Posted: 09-15-05 12:49pm

Im an 18 year old boy, who is currently diagnosed social phobia and ocd (obsessive, compulsive dissorder).

Im very troubled these days.


3 days ago I talked with my father, and his face changed to a "monster" kind of looking thing, it was horryfying.
It scared me, I started to swet and got tears in my eyes, it happened twice. It has never happened before.
However im convinced this was a real "halusination".

I have had "halusinations" earlier, in form of people staring at me from windows when I have been sitting at the school bus.
However; this happened just a few times.

There are also other episodes of "halusinations" I am very convinced they are real; I keep seeing smoke, yes......Smoke! Its very real and I find this weird, because its not really there but its more a fantasy than a halusination I believe, or I cant really tell the diference but it has occoured more and more often lately.

Also, I talk with myself in english language (thoughts), however I am norwegian and that is my native language. I dont know why.

Sometimes im commanding myself , I dont hear things , well it has happened but thats not a thing to mention.

I also believe people are out to get me, staring at me, wanting to beat me and im just outside when im going to the shop or school.

I like people but they dont seem to like me.

I have had problems lately regarding myself, I have been thinking about killing myself but this does not regard this matter.

I want to know what kind of diagnosis I "may" or "may not" have within schizophrenia.

Also, my new "psychologist" says hes worried about me maybe developing schizophrenia later in life.

I feel werd these days, and I feel im not alive, I believe in the matrix-- we are all programmed.

Im awaiting response.

Hi Vetz, you must find out the truth behind your experienced imaginations and hallucinations.

In the real world, a lot of people (that might be including anyone of us) live life with many imaginations and hallucinations. It is important to "see it clear" ourself in the mind, what is it doing up there.

See it clear, I'm saying. Observe all your thoughts and mind activity, but you must be very careful that not to provoke more imaginations, so don't play with the thoughts.

If you don't see it clear in your mind, it will be meaningless. Observe the brain's (mind's) activities. Sometimes, you feel like you are an observer, observer of your own mind (see it through on what does it do, continuously.. the clearer and the better).

For example, "I want to have a beautiful girlfriend": this can mean it is our imagination in real life. One gets a beautiful girlfriend or not is another matter. But the thought of imagine a beautiful girlfriend and all kinds of activities to do with you girlfriend, you know it is just an activity in your mind. Because it does not happen.

So, someday (can be anytime) when you've done enough homework, you will be able to differentiate between truth and the other way.

No fancy words to describe it here.

Truth is a very interesting path for everyone of us, to live a life Smile

I can relate to your experience when your father's face started changing. I've had the same thing happen to me a couple of times, my mother will be talking and suddenly it looks like her face is melting and she's changing into, something, I don't know.
There's a thread with syptoms of schizophrenia, maybe take a look...?

Vetz, it sounds like you have some symptoms of schizophrenia - the hallucinations, the paranoia, the people staring. Your brain makes it look like it real, but it's not. You should tell your psychologist.
