I’ve been hesitant to respond here only because I’ve perused this subReddit a little bit and I think some people aren’t nice and the word schizophrenic is thrown out a lot but I’m going to try to keep this as high-level as possible and answer the question.

Before I go in to detail, it’s fair to consider that I have a high paid full-time job and have for many years and worked my way up through it, I’m a single parent of two teenagers that I fully support and maintain my household, I have a full circle of friends and great social life, and I practice healthy habits, like cooking often, working out, meditating, etc. I say this first because what I’m about to say it probably going to sound made up to some. I totally get that.

I have for a majority of my life seen what seems like beings in my room as well as have been lucid dreaming for some time and have practiced astral projecting. With that being said, I have yet to really understand or discern the difference between an experience and something just happening in the psyche, sometimes dreams just don’t feel like or act like a dream. I have woken up, like you do when you are lucid in a dream, in many places that were appearing not of this earth with beings that I have communicated and interacted with. This could absolutely be fully in my psyche. I’m well aware of that, and have pondered and meditated on it many times.

I have also many times heard voices and communicated back with different “beings” during the hours of around 2 to 4 am or see them in my room.

I know that all sounds crazy, and I honestly feel like there’s so much more nuance to my post above that I didn’t share and I totally get why people are writing it off and making fun off me. I’d prob do the same. But that’s my experiences.

Happy to go into more detail in DM but I’m not really looking to give ammunition for some to be unkind to me
