kossai: masculine form of kossai, cute wink (Default)
[personal profile] kossai

in terms of kossai experiences with brief intermittent psychosis and nonhuman identity ... some episodes bring nonhuman identity aspects , just by chance . these aspects only last for duration of episode , nothing really attach and tie back into daily life . 
some of these directly cause stress and risk - experiences short as is , but mostly would not feel like safe choice to accept as everyday aspect . others do not have those problems , but still , experiences short - without any other basis , find no reason to accept as everyday aspect .

most of these identities come as random flickers - say for example , thoughts wander to hyenas , and so feel suddenly hyena-like . no transformation take place , just feel like any ordinary 'kin connection , but impermanent . on that note , only one of these experiences brush into territory of outright clinical zoanthropy - but specifically come from delirium of low oxygen , and also fade once oxygen stabilise . hard to describe what that was like , but can trace back exactly why and how brain follow that path . kind of neat , as weird as that might be to say .

surely some kind of flicker label out there exist to help explain , without necessarily need to refer as psychosis , but ... well , not really sure about thoughts on that for kossai situation . prefer to view these experiences - good and bad - as gift for survival of NDE . some aspects provide away relief from feelings , while other aspects delve into feelings , help to express and heal . to strip away psychosis and ideas of madness from description of kossai experiences would not feel right or comfortable .
