Hah, very interesting way of looking at it. ;)

Maybe we're cyborgs or androids in disguise. :O

D: Cylons!!

I would definitely see a doctor OP and waffle. Might be some drugs available that can help, if you don't mind the side effects.

If you live with your condition your whole life and only you can perceive it, there's no way to know that it's not normal.

Take colour blindness for example, my friend had no idea at all he was colour blind until I had him take a test for fun and he read the numbers completely different then normal. I then asked him what he thought the colour of his pants was. He said brown, but in reality they were purple :p. Living your whole life with mismatched clothes, all because he couldn't tell what he was wearing.

He was lactose intolerant too, he just thought his bad gas was normal :p.

Man, lots of people are like this. All of those people "oooh mexican food gives me the shits;" dude see a doctor. Millions of mexicans do not get the shits when eating mexican food. I don't get the shits and neither does anyone else in my family and we don't live anywhere near mexico. Getting sick means you have some kind of problem. I wonder how many millions of Americans have stomach cancer or irritable bowel syndrome and don't even know it.

I did not realize that was a condition either, I definitely have it, thought it was normal. It's not really anoying or anything though. I get it mostly in the dark, kinda like a video camera in low lighting.

Reading further I also get the level 3 halucinations too. The level 4 sounds really fun.

Another interesting effect is those squiggly lines that will randomly pass by. Anyone get those?
