what do u mean background??

@🌱 Like what your mind is telling you

ive never had this happen before i dont think im schizophrenic but im terrified of having it ims os scared because what the fuck was that

@🌱 im not on any drugs i dont even smoke cigarettes

@🌱 i cant tell if its my brain playing tricks on me because i started at my ceiling in a dark room and it looked like the dark was moving but im so fucking scared what the fuck was that

@🌱 I have often had hallucinations when dark. Usually terrifying.

@🌱 Hallucinations are not abnormal for even the mentally well

@🌱 yeah if you're not taking any drugs or smoking cigarettes, then I don't really know. It could definitely just be your eyes playing tricks on you and I agree, schizophrenia sounds really scary and no one would ever want to have it or go through! Are you still seeing things or is it gone?

@Dudeguymanbro I hope you're okay!

@hiii I am fine. It happens for me through sleep deprivation and sleep paralysis

@hiii it was when it was pitch black so when i put my flash on my phone up to the ceiling it went away. then i turned my flash off and looked at the ceiling again and nothing was moving

@🌱 I definitely think it was just a hallucination and you're eyes were just playing tricks on you!! But if it continuosly goes on, you should talk to a proffesional about it but try to get plenty of sleep, if it helps drink water, listen to music and focus on your breathing to calm yourself down!! Sorry if this doesn't help

@Dudeguymanbro Ohh yeah sleep deprivation can cause hallucinations and definitely sleep palaysis, it sounds really scary. Ive heard stories and it scares the shit out of me. I hope you won't get them often!
