Even wilder ones, like sensations of being on waves, vertigo-like feelings, or my bedroom door popping open and people or other creatures (sometimes many of them) coming in, making a lot of noise, talking to me, sitting on my bed, touching me etc etc etc. Lots and lots of weird stuff. I've experienced these states so long and so many times in my life that I've actually grown to enjoy them
Of course I would never relapse to have them more often. Yes if you feel you are not getting enough support or doing enough recovery-related things, definitely amp it up. All the best!
