What a horrifying fate. I bet only ~75 cases were reported because the suicide rate must be astronomical with victims.
i wonder if this could be how so many myths of monsters existing started. like some random cave man hit his head and started seeing demons everywhere then drew it on a rock u feel me
my assumption is that it is generally some form of brain damage. brain damage is horrifying because just about anything you can imagine involving perception is probably possible. the nature of the brain as a physical thing that exists within reality is a source of truely limitless horror
TikTok about to take this and add it to their epic collection of “personalities.”
There is also another disorder I think is quite terrifying: Capgras Syndrome. It's basically a mental disorder where you're convinced your family and friends have been replaced by doubles or imposters. I'm not sure how it works specifically but something in the brain of the affected just cannot accept the fact that their loved ones are real people.
8:19 I have always been so scared of looking in the mirror and seeing my face like this. I used to avoid mirrors all of the time. I can’t imagine how terrible this would be, I think I would die of a panic attack.
Victor really handled the situation calmly, most people would've tackled the roommate..
Wow. This reminds me of a japanese visual novella called "Saya no Uta". About a guy getting brain damage and started seeing distorted world/people around him. Very interesting story. Never knew we have those things in our world. It's scary.
I have epilepsy and this is scaring the shit out of me
This video is so well done and not overly dramatic! It would be so easy to make this an unnecessarily spooky video, and you did it with great respect and knowledge. I love this channel
Sometimes I see my own face distorted. But never others.
"PMO" 💔💔💔
Imagine being schizophrenic and having this pmo at same time 😳
But HOW is this even possible!??? So only faces get distorted? Not things surrounding him? If that's the case then its just face-recognition part of his brain is lagging bruv
imagine being woken up at night by a friend or family and that is the moment your PMO starts to kick in, that would be terrifying
My dad had this in his 20s. He was even in a mental instatution until his mom prayed for him and somehow it healed him. I never knew this was more than on person thing. wow.
This reminds me of the movie Frailty which was a story written by Steven King. A man was normal one day, and the next he starts seeing certain people only as horrific demons and he was trying to convince his two little sons that they do exist and that they should smite them together. The kids can’t see them, only the father, and that’s what makes that story scary in my opinion, you don’t know what is wrong with the father and you never truly see what he sees ever, just hear him describe them to his sons only.
I dont feel like sleeping anymore
I have bipolar 1 disorder w/ psychotic features. I have had mild prosopagnosia ever since my longest psychotic episode. It has gotten slightly better since it onset, but I still can have some trouble recognizing faces from time to time. Its especially difficult when i meet somebody for the first time. As soon as I leave after the first time meeting them, their face will be basically completely erased from my mind. If i saw them on the street and looked directly at them, i would not be able to recognize them. Even if i had met them on five different occasions, i would still most likely not be able to recognize their face if i ran into them. Its nothing life altering for me and I am very grateful to have made it out of psychosis mostly unharmed. But it definitely can be hard making new friends and stuff.
