Surroundings becoming weird and fast/intense/loud

[123que]

I first experienced this weird sensation when i was a child and had a bad fever/illness in bed. Suddenly my entire surroundings in my bedroom became very intense and everything around me became fast and almost louder in my mind, although they weren't in reality.

Ever since then i sometimes (about once every few months) experience this odd sensation and it can become a bit worrying and strange.

The whole room seems to have a new feeling to it- everything im doing whether it be walking or typing seems to intensify and become louder yet the actions are very exaggerated and almost speed up (only perceived this way). I find it very difficult to explain fully but i'm worried it's some early signs of a neurological condition or something?

It usually only onsets when i'm alone and have a lot of silence for a while...?

Does you know what this could be, please?

I have been having these same episodes. At first, I thought I was hearing peoples thoughts. I had always had a "hard time hearing" but it was more like I couldn't concentrate long enough for my brain to comprehend. And hearing whispers oh other voices echoing in my mind was scary to say the least. As time went by these "episodes" progressed, whether do to stress on my body or mind, I don't know but I do feel like they play a part. One day, the movie Wanted came out and I had to link the effects. Haven't you noticed the things that happen and the movie are almost exactly the same? Eveything seems to "speed" up or we speed up that is seeing as normal time flow stays the same. My heart rate increase, sounds become to much more intense. After watching the movie I began meditating and learning to control my mind and heart rate. And when these "episodes" come on, I can either quickly subdue them now or "goad" them on. When I do "goad" them on, I feel stronger, faster and more aware. It is an intense and scary feeling because you feel like it's either going to come to the point where you explode or just shut off from sheer exertion. I wonder if our conditions we're the basis for this movie and if maybe it holds some secret that we should be looking into. There isn't a diagnosis, yet this has been happening to people for a LONG time. Maybe there is a reason there isn't one. I for one, am continuing in my exercises. In any rate, whatever you believe, if you want to gain control over your attacks you need to learn how to control your heart rate. Just being able to calm your body and mind down decreases the amount of time spent in these "episodes" and makes them less frequent I find.

Scary and fascinating !  I have this happen to me  just as I'm falling asleep  I sense  light and  everything gets louder  and like a rushing and pulling feeling  like I want to let it ride out but I get scared and yell myself  out of it  ! Omg  !  I wonder what would happen if I ride it out ?  It's happening every other  day  ....... once or twice a week!

I've been experiencing the same thing as everyone for a while. It's really annoying, and I can't control it. It happens at random times, usually when I'm being quiet. Usually sitting peacefully or reading. It sounds loud and fast, and like everything, even the tiniest thing, sounds amplified and huge. It's very intense. I try to move slowly, as to not provoke the sounds, but it doesn't help. As I'm comforted by knowing that I'm not the only one, I'm still very confused and want to figure out whats happening to us all.
Thanks!

Try listening to music (slow, melodies). Sometimes works for me.

This is unbelievable. I've had this happen to meat be once a year since I was about 5 and I'm now 20. I vividly remember the first time it happened to me I was sick from a fever. My mother was tucking me in and I felt as if she was racing all over the room. She was speaking very gentle but my brain was like telling me that she was screaming. And I knew she wasn't but I just freaked out and cried. Very frightening as a child. It happened to me this morning and I tried to calm myself by thinking calming thoughts but it was liked brain saying "ITS OK JUST IGNORE IT DO YOUR HAIR YOURE JUST FINE JUST FINE!!!". When I was little all I could do was sit and close my eyes and try and make it go away but now I try and challenge the feeling. Today I found that I had an uneasy feeling when looking in a mirror but I saw my reflection in a window while it was dark out and it made my heart pound and I couldn't stare long. I never told anyone about it until today when I called my mother to tell her about it and all the other people it happens to. Turns out she has it happen also. She said that no doc will understand and can prescribe an anxiety medicine that will likely help. She also said she didn't experiemce it until after I was born. I believe it to be somehow a chemical situation that controls brain activity. Maybe in the most open minded cases a connection with something spiritual but I would not put my money on that.

HI..I am reading about this due to my 10 year old son..He suddenly wont eat in front of people and says it started when we were eating out a few months ago. He said the room got really small and loud and felt like everything was in slow motion. I do remember that day and he was eating like any other day then suddenly looked like he was going to be sick. He went to the bathroom then was quiet the rest of the night. I am only hearing this now after harping on him about not eating a table anymore and not going to functions or friends houses if it requires eating times. I am interested in your post only because you said you saw auras around people as a child..my son has always had "expierences" with spirits since he was 2 years old.  I think he may of not of said anything right away because he thought it was normal..and had something to do with that. He also says he can't swallow when he is around people and eating..just wondered if you have any thoughts on this..thanks!
