Hallucinatory 'voices' shaped by local culture "schizophrenia" - upensmoke - 08-08-2017 Hello I came across a great article, that i personally believe may help anyone suffering from schizophrenia. Mods please move to the correct section of the forum if you feel this isn't the place. http://news.stanford.edu/2014/07/16/voices-culture-luhrmann-071614/ Quote:some quotes The main idea i got from this is the perception you put on yourself and other selfs can affect the intensity and negativity/positivity of the gift/curse that is schizophrenia. RE: Hallucinatory 'voices' shaped by local culture "schizophrenia" - jacrob - 08-09-2017 This reminds me of a Ted Talks vid I watched recently where they speak on a similar topic starting at about 3.30minutes RE: Hallucinatory 'voices' shaped by local culture "schizophrenia" - native - 08-22-2017 In tribal cultures schizophrenics are seen as gifted by their apparent connection to other worlds, and sometimes are the ones who become shamans. For those who are familiar with astral noises, I was relaxing on my chair the other day dozing off and I kept hearing random noises in the in-between state. It occurred to me that those who experience auditory hallucinations may be experiencing a slight permanent link with their waking consciousness to their astral body.
