what if people with schizophrenia see things that are really there, just we know the sane ones dont see?

Question:

Answers:
This is exactly what I have always thought might be going on. These people seem far less concerned with perception than so-called normal people. Almost as though they existed only partially in this dimension with us. With their thought processes not tied up with the job of processing all of this perception, their minds have free space to use in other ways, thus allowing ther consciousness to wander so to speak.

Essentially this free hard drive space that they have is not tuned into the time space continuum as completely as most of the rest of us are. This allows them to pick up on very subtle perceptual signals that most of us are simply unable to pick up on and are completely unaware of.

This is very similar to what mystics, clairvoyants and other seers have been reporting for centuries. The only difference being these people did not see it as something wrong with themselves. Had they felt this way, and found someone willing to stick a label on them and provide a diagnosis for them, they might have been thought of as mentally ill and locked up.

Think about it, no bible, no theory of relativity, we might have missed a great deal.

Makes you wonder what we are missing now by locking all of these people up and dismissing anything that comes from them as unimportant.?

Thats a complicated question to answer. Being schitzophrenic(excuse the spelling) is a disability that does play on the mind sometimes. Sometimes you can be 100% certain that things are there but really aren't, just like hearing things. It is one of the symptoms, im sorry to say.

Then who's really sane? Is your life a reality or a fantasy? What are you living?

That's a good question. Maybe we're the messed up ones, and they are the sane ones...

Reality is a matter of speculation at the best of times, let alone for someone whose perceptions don't jive with everyone else's view of it. There has been a lot of talk about different psychotic states, including those of people who have taken hallucinogenic compounds such as LSD and psilocybin...In closing though, I think we all create reality to please what our brains tell us it ought to be...so we have to look at the varying degrees of conscious levels and compare them to come up with the closest model of what is real and what isn't. I have met some people who are schizophrenic and I have to say it was an interesting experience to listen to what they have said and study their perceptual processes but I don't believe they have any kind of jump up on the rest of us who see things more commonly.
