In the field of work that I am at we see children that "hear voices" (command hallucinations) every once in a while. When asked about these voices they believe that they are real. "You don't get it. It's not my imagination. They are there and they tell me to do things. They are scary," etc. etc. To some, the voices are so real that they have to practice altering the experiences as they go on with their daily lives. Meds help them have a better quality of life and fade those voices out. Suppose one of these kids told me it was an evil force of some sort (they will say that). It doesn't make it true just because I can't explain why it happens. It just means the kid needs her meds and she needs my help. It takes skill and discipline to learn how to recognize the signals and "play the system", your own system. Perhaps your experiences have an explanation and you would get it if you spoke about it to your psychiatrist. Perhaps it doesn't go that far. Perhaps you just really want something and your emotions have taken you to places that seem supernatural. I know. I thought I had experiences, but now I realize I really wanted to see blue where it was green and my mind tricked me to thinking it was there. Just don't answer "but I know for sure" if you won't explain what makes your case any different than the one of these kids.
"I have this feeling that I can't explain..."
"Something drives me to believe..."
"Something inside me that I can't explain..."
Not good answers. Those are emotional. They mean nothing more than, "I don't know what this is, but it tastes good even with its fins." (meaning it's fishy).
Pointing around: "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, you're cool, fuck you, I'm out!"
