Oh my.
Kind of a double bonus here, with both the Grapes of Wrath primitive and the Tobe in one thread:

hallucinations are a symptom of bipolar disorder yeah?
The other night, I felt as if I were a popsicle stick pressing against my teeth.
I could feel the pressure, though I was the stick itself.
This happened while walking on my front porch last night.
What the hell lol

2. back when I didnt know I had bipolar disorder
I would have rare grand hallucinations about how the world was opening up and I was being taken to my death. I'd feel immense senses of dread.
Nowadays, I'm medicated. But I just went 3 days without meds and well, symptoms started arising.
I got my meds back again though so... I'm leveling out. I'm having a good day today I think.
And I haven't talked to my doctor since he first prescribed me the meds half a year ago.

6. I have a bipolar disorder and I suffered from hallucinations.
A few of them were visual, but most of them were auditory. I later came to realize that the voices I was hearing were actually my own thoughts that had gotten dissociated somehow and given life in the illusion that they were in my ear. It was actually all in my head. So are other hallucinations. They are a product of your own psyche.
So when you are having these hallucinations, if they return, it might be helpful to remember that it is some part of you that is creating them. The hallucinations and your reaction to them are much more manageable if you have that understanding. Where people run into a lot of trouble is by thinking that these events are somehow external to themselves.

7. heres the interesting thing
I am aware that the hallucinations are my mind going awry. Sometimes they have been intense to the point that, it's no matter, I'll still feel a sense of dread.
BUT.
Regarding disassociation, I have felt that in regards to my physical body. Like I'm just a passenger in a seat watching my body pilot itself throughout the day. Weird stuff!

12. So you mean that after you started taking medications
you began to experience hallucinations as from within? If that's the case, then, good for you, that does give you a handle on things.
Although I have no research findings to back that up, my clinical experience is that bipolar hallucinations are different from schizophrenic hallucinations. I believe they are mostly an expression of the manic reaction to the depressive pull. That would make them a little less severe than schizophrenic ones, more "workable".

13. Yes, it was the realization that they were from within.
I no longer have hallucinations. The medication really works well for me.

OK it is now official. Tubbs is angling for a disability ride. Expect more posts like this in the near future. I just SMDH at these idiots that go on the DU and tell the whole world they are nuts.
While I am thinking about it... doesn't that preclude an individual from owning firearms? Perhaps someone should inform his local PD that Tubbs is not allowed to own weapons. Perhaps someone already did. :whistling:
What about driving trucks? :shrug:
Great find Coach! :cheersmate:

Worthy candidates, no question. However, the Big Dummy has been quiet, as of late.
I wonder why?
