    I’m genuinely worried that these people may induce themselves into psychosis. As a person with a dissociative disorder I can see this whole “shifting” thing causing a lot of psychological damage to a lot of kids. When they convince themselves that there are separate realities that they can shift themselves over to, they are creating a distance between their consciousness and reality.
    I really am scared for these people because I believe that this could develop into a form of self-harm due to the distress these people exhibit when they return to “the real world”.
    We should try and spread awareness about this before these kids seek out even more dangerous dangerous methods to escape reality.

    The thing about shifting is, I think it is actually scientifically explainable, similar to lucid dreaming. The thing that irks me about a lot of those tiktokers is that some are blatantly lying about their experience, and some are experiencing actual psychosis which is dangerous. Some claim to have been gone for months at a time, which is clearly a lie or a psychotic episode. Many people who suffer from psychosis have a warped perception of time, and second of all why are they bawling their eyes out making a tiktok right after they came back for the first time in months? Any form of escapism is dangerous if it is done too often, and you should never be bawling your eyes out just because you woke up to reality because that can become an addiction, just like abusing hallucinogens that let you see things that aren't there or maladaptive daydreaming, and can be extremely dangerous for people who are mentally vulnerable, or predisposed to developing psychosis.

      Abusing hallucinogenics? Have you ever done hallucinogens? You can’t even do them often, it doesn’t work. At least not with shrooms. And when you’re not tripping anymore, you still feel good. Yea bad trips happen but that’s different. It’s not like with other drugs where the major change in serotonin levels makes you depressed. This is why shrooms and ecstasy are micro dosed to help with mental illness and trauma based disorders. I think a better example would be abuse of alcohol or other drugs like cocaine.

      You can pretty much dissociate and believe anything you want and have wild experiences, and this solipsistic thinking combined with fantasy thinking and dissociative practices can pretty much make you believe you are in a different reality. This is why many (if not most) philosophers nowadays don't talk about the "objective reality" but rather the "intersubjective" one, meaning the shared perspectival reality.

    I think they're just maladaptive daydreaming. I've been doing maladaptive daydreaming since I was a baby. It's very vivid and fun, and I've created whole character with back-stories, and even a country with a national anthem and capitol city.
    I can visualize the scenery, and sometimes hear my character's voices.
    It's kind like dreaming whilst being half-awake half-asleep.
    Sometimes, when I move on the dream, I wake myself up because my legs twitched violently. That's how vivid it is.
    BUT the fucking problem is is that it's addictive and ruins your fucking life.
    Why would I do my schoolwork when I can just lucid-daydream that I'm in fucking Skyrim, or the ATLA universe?

      ​@@sazsha There are a lot of holes yeah, but Sirius escaped Azkaban because he could shapeshift into an animal. I forget what it's called but these people are so dangerous that they all have to be documented by the Ministry of Magic. Sirius taught himself (which is a plot hole, how and why don't more people?) He stayed in Azkaban for as long as he did because he thought he deserved punishment but the first news he got about Harry he turned into his dog form and slipped past the dementors who are oblivious to the presence of animals (another plot hole). Currency is enchanted so you can't replicate it. Invisibility cloaks are extremely rare and powerful items, the one Harry had was an ancient heirloom.

    I was absolutely doing it to escape reality, I didn't have any friends and was also confused gay.
    I kinda stopped doing it there for a while as life was becoming more bearable but recently I lost my job and applied to over 30 new places, a bunch of other factors playing into it as well I find myself sleeping knock out cold for sometimes up to 11 hours just jumping into these intense dreams, and I have to admit, they are better than reality...

    okay so for all the people who saying this is fake how hard is it for you to get.
    1.) it is not lucid dreaming, many lucid dreamers including myself who has lucid dreamed everynight for over a decade can tell you its not even close to the same. You cant stay in a lucid dream for YEAR and YEARS.
    2.) its not maladaptive daydreaming. Somw of the symptoms of maladaptive daydreaming is an inability to carry out daily tasks, repetitive and unconscious movements when daydreaming, such as rocking back and forth or twitching, sleep disruption and insomnia, abnormally long daydreams that are hard to escape. Shifting dose not effect you ability to carry out tasks, you dont move when your shifting, shifting dose not affect you sleeping, and you can leave that reality WHENEVER you want its not hard to leave. If anything its hard to stay there. Plus, you dont have to be awake to shift, therefore if your asleep its not a day dream. You chose to shift, people even have a hard time shifting. Its
    3.) just because you don’t understand something dose not mean its not real. Shifting has been around for YEARS its not just a new trend by teens as adults do it to.
    4.) stop being so closed minded. You really think everything is all plain and simple? Stop being so dense
    5.) if you think its just your imagination, you just plain dumb literally do your research.

    In reference to the girl talking about her finger shifting when she closes an eye, I couldn't help but think about optics and how artists draw things. Like if you're looking at a cube on a turn table and shift it slightly to the right or left, the entire image that you have to draw is shifted and becomes something else. So what is the real correct way we should view that cube? Is a cube truly square? Maybe from some angles, but not all.
    I was also thinking about the ways that animals may see things differently from us. Some are blind, some see thermal energy, some can see in the dark, some can see in different dimensions, some are colour blind etc. Does the difference in the way things are perceived mean that those animals are seeing an altered reality from us? If so, is their reality false simply because they don't perceive what humans do? Could it be that their reality is 'shifted' like the girl said? Maybe. And if so, we technically have the ability to create whatever reality we want right?

      For example, it's nonsense when people talk about their "energy" without even knowing what energy is and how it's measured (Joules) and the different forms of energy, none of which are magical. Same with quartz krystals.
      Personally, I believe that wanting to believe in something is one of the worst reasons to do it. Ideally, the only guide to believe in something should be logic and evidence (not including social interactions).
      As for the shifters, of course it's perfectly fine. But long term, going so deep in a hobby can affect a person's life, hindering job oportunities just because of the time wasted. It can happen with anything that we devote 100% of our time, and even mor so in our 20s is when life can easily be derailled. Moderation is key.
