For what itâs worth that happened to me a lot and it turned out the common factor was sleep deprivation đ¤ˇââď¸

At some point in highschool I had small hallucinations where I see a dark figure pass by in edge of my peripheral vision and disappear.
I still think about that. It was daily for like two weeks straight. Multiple times a day sometimes.

Was probably just a wonky eyelash or something in front of your eye. Your brain fills in the gaps âGenAI style,â so when one eye has something blurry in the way, the shape can briefly look like a person or figure.
Your brain trys to detect danger (danger<->the stuff you are afraid of) first, extra fast, if it moves.
I have dreads, and if one falls at the right angle, Iâve caught myself looking that way reflexivelyâeven after realizing it was just my hairâlike four times in a row.
