I just wanted to share this in case anyone had the same kind of experience? A few weeks ago I was hallucinating a person, both auditory and visually, he was pissed at me about something and even though I closed my eyes I could still feel and hear him run toward me and stab me in the chest area. I got a really sharp pain, like worse than I’ve ever felt before even with existing heart problems. I genuinely thought I was gonna die. Eventually went to the hospital and labs showed I had inflammation exactly in that area (costocondritis) that can cause sharp shooting pains. The pain and exhaustion has gone away by now but I’m still thinking about how a hallucination actually managed to hurt me?? Or maybe it was that my body was processing the pain in a certain way? Has anyone else had this happen to them?
