Who would believe me even if I said it? Might as well keep quiet and not cause people to be concerned about my sanity

Yeah that's how you get put on antipsychotics.

Fun fact: I had a minor surgery a lot of years ago with a cocktail anesthesia so that I remained awake. Thorazine was one of the drugs. It seems wild that it is used to test schizophrenia, because it certainly caused me to visually hallucinate, or maybe because it was part of the anesthetic cocktail. At any rate, I don't foresee myself ever consenting to taking it regularly. Holy moly, it was wild. And the hallucinations weren't distressing, but knowing I was hallucinating was. Not in a psychonaut kind of way, either.
