visual hallucinations
during an episode:
- demon sitting in the corner of my room
- shadow person standing at the foot of my bed (not sleep paralysis)
- disfigured faces in mirrors/when i close my eyes to sleep
visual hallucinations from my chronic migraines:
visual aura (spots/zig-zags/flashes/dead zones/noise)
- white/gray/black blobs in my vision
- zig zags are like rainbow fractals that tear through my vision. kinda like when you hold up a magnet to an old CRT TV
- bright white flashes that consume my vision for half a second
- whole zones/sides of my vision that just disappear. like if your blind spot just started growing
- horrible noise that is like tv static overlaying everything
aural hallucinations:
during an episode:
- people whispering in the walls
- sounds of heavy machinery clanging in the walls
- random voices whispering "hey" in my ear trying to jumpscare me, especially when i'm trying to sleep
daily/randomly:
- (every summer) the sound of really loud cicadas/crickets from outside, even though i no longer live in a place that has cicadas or crickets
- occasional deafness and dull ringing tone in one ear (unilateral tinnitus)
- high pitched ringing every day (general tinnitus)
- people calling my name who are not there
- random noise of two buzzing stunt magnets clacking together waking me from sleep
- mains hum
- distant sirens
olfactory hallucinations:
these happen randomly and i cant remember them all
unpleasant:
- sulfur, putrescence, burnt plastic/rubber/hair, iodine, metal/blood, ozone, pool chlorine, chlorine bleach, gasoline, acetone, flatulence, manure, urine, body odor, raw chicken, marijuana, mold, raw sewage
pleasant:
- cookies, petrichor, rotting leaves, cut grass, popcorn, fresh laundry, ocean, restaurant food smell, soap, old books, wood chips, tea olive, honeysuckle, incense, cat fur
gustatory hallucinations:
- rotting meat, blood, marijuana, bile
the worst ones have to be dead things because they fill up my nose/mouth. there's no way to get it out even if pinch my nose or try to smell something/eat something to cover it up. i get really nauseous
tactile/psychosomatic hallucinations:
- ants crawling underneath my skin
- phantom cuts that aren't there
- numbness/tingling in my arms and legs
- being unable to feel the cold even if my hands and feet are freezing
- patches of skin on my leg feeling detached, like they are made of cloth
