This struck me, is it so special? That's just the regular "eyes closed for a minute or two" mode for me ? It's interesting how we all seem capable of the same experiences but some have a really amazing ability to ignore what goes on in their nervous system.. I'm acutely aware of all of thees artifacts at all times, the floaters and the halos and afterimages.
"I remember my entire vision filling up with white bubbles which then broke and briefly returned to black. Then white lightning bolt shapes stretched across my sight, expanded to make my vision purely white, and then slowly faded back to black. The strangest thing about it was the brightness. I literally felt like I was staring into lights despite being blindfolded in a dark room. Unfortunately, it only lasted about 30 seconds, but my heart was racing."

- dusted 3y agoI've often wondered about that experience, but I've not really had the chance to try it out yet.
