Why do i do this......?

Question

ever since i was a little kid, for some reason, i've been putting my fingers in a certain position and flicking them around...well...when I do this, I can see things as if I was dreaming...it's pretty cool. It's like a lucid dream. I can control everything, hear things, etc. etc. I can't really explain it.... It's a really bad habit, and I usually do it when I'm bored. It drains my energy, and usually leaves me with headaches afterward..

What is this? How can I stop?

Answer 1

well that just sounds totally weird lol i mean i can do it in a way though psychologists are mystified on how i can replace reality with my imagination and they say i have some controlled schizophrenia but maybe you could try really lucid dreaming it may decrease your inclination to do it in the first place

Holy batman! You have majical powers!

Lololol. Sorry.

Wow never heard of this happening to anyone before. Maybe doing that with your fingers relaxes you enought to open up your imagination.

Who know you might just be friggin "GIFTED". Lol.

Or..... eeeh don't even want to type it.

Rymes with "rain answer". Go see a doc.

Answer 3

It's possible that this happends as an association:

Maybe when you were a child you used to do this, or did this once, at which time some of those memories (events then) happened.

And now, it's possible it's just a benign habit...

Or does this happen more often when you are in stressful situations/ times? Maybe everytime you are anxious, your brain and body bring about that habit by association, as an exaggerated reaction to the situation.

Do you feel any compulsion to do this?

It may be a sort of anxiety.

Talk to a counsellor and all the best   :o)

Sounds like a influx of a chemical imbalance, its seems as if when your fingers are in those positions it releases whats called  " happy triggers" which are neurotransmitters, the receptors cant handle all them so you get that weird daydreaming thing, or vision, just a guess, im not sure, just a guess
