One time before being sent to a psych ward i started having derealization. I felt like no one was real, nothing was real and like things were happening based on how much attention i would give my surroundings, and there were these beings outside this fake realm that were coaching me out, they were telling me that you can basically glitch reality by putting your attention at another location so that the other location renders and the location where you're at will render with like less potency. I managed to do it and then everything became more obviously unreal, i was in a hospital at the time in like a holding cell for like dangerous patients or something because i was locked in there, and the people outside were like talking gibberish with occasional important words being thrown in like "bla bla bla HUNGRY bla bla bla"it was really weird they were like muppets. i felt like all intelligent beings had ascended out of this realm like thousands or maybe millions of years ago and i was one of if not the only person still in this thing, i felt so alone and scared.anyone else experience this?

>>42188051nah it wasn't really like that, they would say that i'm a snake.
>>42188066Well, derealization is internal, a distortion in perception rather than a distortion in reality. You'll find that it's possible to ground yourself in such a state if you have enough meta-awareness. Giving into it will not achieve much, though it will feel magical.
>>42187957I've had psychosis before but mine was totally different.
>>42188088>>42188100at one point the world looked almost like some kind of 3d painting and it was fluid like when you drop paint into water, but it was somehow gross and it was as if that was always how things looked i just had never noticed, it was really unpleasant to notice. the whole thing made me feel like i was trapped in this realm and i should be trying to get out.
