Sorry for the crap description, I struggle to describe this, so hopefully someone knows what it means. Want to know if anyone else experiences this, or if it might be down to my eyesight.
I call it “digital rain”. I only really notice it when indoors, but sometimes outside too. It’s like millions of minuscule shapes, all the same shape and size, that look like ///// and they’re falling down constantly in front of me, like rainfall, all in the same direction. When I notice it, I can’t get rid of it, no matter where I look, until I’m distracted by something else and “forget” that it’s there. When I was younger it used to look so real I used to hold my hand out to see if I could “feel” it hitting my hands. Sometimes I could tingling in the palm of my hand when I did so, but that was rarely. That did make me wonder whether it was a subset of a ki ball, I used to get those all the time, even before I knew it had a name. When I was a teenager, I could feel the tingle of a ball in my hand and sometimes lay on my back in bed and used to transfer it from one hand to another, and throw it up in the air and catch it.
It’s not visual snow syndrome as that looks more like dots whereas these are more like diagonal slashes like ///// and all fall in the same direction. Pretty prepared for people to tell me I’m odd and have no idea what I’m talking about, but I’m just wondering if anyone else experiences this or knows what I’m talking about, or has a name or can put me to a link to perhaps read more about it.
