if that filter fails even slightly, madness is inevitable |

Date: May 10th, 2026 3:39 AM Author: fragrant stubborn halford Yeah it's specifically congenital cortical blindness and the occipital cortex is the region in the brain most associated with hallucinations to begin with. Traditionally mostly visual hallucinations like in psychedelic experiences, but the visual cortex is still involved in language processing, memory, pattern recognition. Maybe closing off that developmental pathways stops some kind of failure mode between visual processing and auditory hallucinations.

Date: May 10th, 2026 10:28 AM Author: Doobsian Casino i had no idea. even auditory hallucinations, quite common in schizophrenia, make use of those pathways. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5865353&forum_id=2Vannesa#49878379) |

Date: May 10th, 2026 12:07 PM Author: fragrant stubborn halford Yeah the "visual" cortex is involved in a huge section of the perceptual bundle, including things like world-building, spatio-temporal construction, and I think identity and self-other boundary formation as well. So it makes sense it would be involved in misprocessing an inner voice as coming from "outside you". (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5865353&forum_id=2Vannesa#49878483) |
