If it's any consolation...
It I hadn't experienced it directly, I wouldn't believe it either.

I just find that unusual...I am not a paranoid person, but I simply can't explain a large percentage of highly unusual experiences that seemed to escalate simply from being "verified disabled" on Official Paperwork.

So how do you know that what you've experienced actually occurred?

My question, then, is how can you be certain that your experiences occurred in objective reality, and weren't simply a symptom of your illness?
I believe you've said you were diagnosed with bipolar type schizoaffective disorder, the primary symptoms of which are those of psychosis; Hallucination and delusion. Hallucinations can occur with various intensity, and can be indistinguishable from reality to the person suffering it.
So how do you know that what you've experienced actually occurred?

Morpheus....is that you?
You sneaky son of a.
No seriously, I can't prove anything.
Don't care to either.
That's between me, my doctors and my therapists.
All I can say is consensual reality and dissociative breaks are two different things and a hallucination/delusion isn't tangible and is entirely subjective with thematics that don't overlap into some of the various other oddities I've experienced, met and shook hands with after coffee.
p.s. - I just ate a peanut butter sandwich. prove I didn't. double dog dare ya.
