- jpotter 8y agoIt may be episodic.
- kaoD 8y agoIt doesn't matter if you consciously know something is false if your brain still presents it as true. Think anxiety. Or like on the movie A Beautiful Mind (I know it's a movie but it happens IRL too). Or being under the influence of some psychedelics (you know you're under the influence but it still feels like reality).
