===Variations=== | ===Variations=== | ||
The specific differences between each potential style of internal hallucination can be broken down into the following variations: | |||
*'''Lucid vs. Delirious''' - Hallucinatory states can maintain a consistent level of awareness throughout them regarding the fact that none of these events are actually happening and that the current situation is simply a result of drug-induced hallucination. In contrast to this, hallucinations can also become completely believable, no matter how nonsensical they may be, in the same way, that one does not have any problem accepting "absurd" and non-linear plots within ones [[dreams]]. | *'''Lucid vs. Delirious''' - Hallucinatory states can maintain a consistent level of awareness throughout them regarding the fact that none of these events are actually happening and that the current situation is simply a result of drug-induced hallucination.

*'''Interactive vs. Fixed''' – Hallucinatory states can either present themselves as completely separate in a manner, that is similar to watching a video play out in front of one's field of vision, or they can be completely interactive. For example, conversing with [[autonomous entities]] or interacting with imagined objects in a fashion similar to [[lucid dreaming]] is entirely possible. | *'''Interactive vs. Fixed''' – Hallucinatory states can either present themselves as completely separate in a manner, that is similar to watching a video play out in front of one's field of vision, or they can be completely interactive.

*'''Controllable vs. Autonomous''' – Imagery and hallucinations can be partial to completely controllable. This can be described as the content of their appearance always seeming to perfectly follow and fit the general topic and subject matter of one's current thought stream, with varying levels of partial to absolute control. In contrast, autonomous hallucinations are completely spontaneous in their subject matter and entirely uncontrollable. | *'''Controllable vs. Autonomous''' – Imagery and hallucinations can be partial to completely controllable.

*'''Geometry-based vs. Solid''' – Hallucinations can be comprised of condensed [[psychedelic]] [[geometry]] or they can appear to be made from realistic materials. | *'''Geometry-based vs. Solid''' – Hallucinations can be comprised of condensed [[psychedelic]] [[geometry]] or they can appear to be made from realistic materials. | ||
