hello this is my first ever reddit post. i am a 19 year old F in university. today i saw a tiktok about hearing your phone vibrate when its not really vibrating when youre stressed or paranoid which usually results in an episode happening soon.
this has been happening to me for years. I always heard my phone buzz and realized it wasn't buzzing and brushed it off every single time and never put any thought into it like i do with other patterns i have. I didnt even think it was a hallucination, that i was hearing things it was just like oh its not buzzing... anyways.
and i realized today that other people have this too and that it is a hallucination. ive never been diagnosed with anything before cuz i havent been tested but i am sure i def have SOMETHING and maybe mutliple of those things. I knew hallucinations are a symptom of BPD as i study psychology at my university but i wanted to hear more thoughts about this type of hallucination.
this is really concerning to me as i was never sure about having BPD before but now I really want to look into it and get diagnosed. I cant believe this tiny little symptom always went over my health/mental health anxious brain. but it also makes sense cuz i didnt even know it was a hallucination.
please share ur thoughts on this with me!
have a good day everyone
