When You're Visited By A Copy Of Yourself, Stay Calm
- experiment0 14y agoThe book mentioned by Oliver Sacks on hallucinations looks interesting. I have to say that one of my favourite neuroscience books has to be, "The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat" by the aforementioned Dr. Oliver Sacks. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Man-Who-Mistook-His-Wife/dp/0330523627 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Man-Who-Mistook-His-Wife/dp/03305236... It's really a great read for anyone interested in neuroscience, psychology or just weird and wonderful stories in general.

- hypno 14y agoIn my self-hypnosis scripts for Summon the Warrior: http://SummontheWarrior.com http://SummontheWarrior.com I use sensory recall and a few other techniques that can induce hallucinations. Certainly, they can be triggered by a smell or sound. Negative hallucinations are even more common (like not being able to see the car keys when they are right in front you). I see people show signs of negative hallucinations when they walk past litter on scenic paths.
