has anyone ever get a hallucination of what looks like a rotating tesseract, like a spinning 4D cube flashing blue, red, white and black. I get this specific hallucination a lot and ive even had sleep paralysis and seen it, if you have had these hallucinations or know why im having them please tell me, thanks.

    Oh no. Do you get migraines? That sounds a lot like the visual disturbance that comes before a migraine. Like a colorful something between you and whatever you are trying to look at?

      Ocular migraine. Not always followed by an actual headache, to which I can attest. But the visuals are a trip for sure.

        It does not have to feature a literal headache. How long does it last? For me it’s mostly around 20 minutes up to 30 until it’s completely gone.

        Also, does it stay with eyes open and closed?

            Interesting, that is very quick but I am neither a doctor nor do I have an overview on the average length.

            But, depending on country (costs) I’d recommend a head mrt.

        But it’s in your field of vision like that, in the way of what it’s blocking? Any sort of hallucination like that really should be explained by a doctor because what if it’s some brain disorder that can be treated? And will harm you if untreated?

    I am no medical professional but having any kind of hallucination “a lot” is concerning. Please talk to your doctor about it.

  • The only time I ever hallucinated, it was just intense paradolia made even more intense by the weed I was smoking watching the wind rustle a tree into the faces of Optimus Prime, Satan, Cthulu, and other random characters I recognized.

    Then no, I do not relate. Do you have a family history of anything like this? Has this been going on for a while? Are you staying hydrated?

    Only non-drug hallucinations I’ve experienced were tied to extended time without sleep due to mania from bi-polar. Didn’t see that, however.

    What colour is the background? How clearly/blurrily and vividly can you see the tesseract? Is it in your mind’s eye or your actual field of vision?

      actual field of vision, its like it appears, but its not 3d, i cant move closer or further away from it, it just happens, like its pasted over my vision, or its really far away and close at the same time, with black around it, theres always black around it.

    I highly doubt many people are going to see the exact same thing. Also if you have sleep paralysis then you have been sleeping. Why do you call it a hallucination rather than a dream?
