I get a natural high after exercising. I lie down and watch the ceiling "fluctuate" for a little while as I watch colors dance across my eyes and tint my vision. Breathe in, breathe out.
I occasionally see things out of the corner of my eyes. For instance, I'm on a bus and I see what I think is a white sneaker kick out from beneath my seat. I turn my head, but there's nothing there. Is there something wrong?
I need noise. In silence I can hear all the little things that are usually drowned out by the TV or radio. The tick-tocks of clocks, the ruffling of papers, footsteps, the sound of the house settling; all these sounds irk me to no end. I can't CONCENTRATE!
Loud, abrupt noises also irritate me. I sometimes feel like destroying whatever made that sound.
Anger drains me. I feel dizzy and exhausted after.
Sometimes I feel like that dude from PI. I feel a dull headache like someone punched me in the back of the head and... and... and... it just derails my train of thought. (sorry about that)
A couple of months ago I woke up one night honestly believing that the media were broadcasting the news straight to my head. I thought it was some kind of radiation streaming in through the window and for 15 minutes, that's what I thought. I then dismissed it as just waking up from the middle of a dream. I was watching the news before I went to sleep so it might be it.
Also, something else I seem to have forgotten about. I'll get it down when I remember. Oh right, I get the distinct feeling that someone is following me sometimes. That normal?
Writing this down, it doesn't seem as bad as I made it seem in my head. Perhaps in our heads, it has a stronger bias than if it had a physical manifestation. Something we can read or look at. Make sense, organize the thoughts in our heads so we don't feel so ill. Make sense of ourselves, understand.
