Also I’m not gonna lie I have a hard time understanding things with biology and sometimes I wish I had some help because think of the things we could achieve. The scientific community helping me build ideas beyond our imagination.
It's not biology. It's psychology. If you think you can see blue at night in the sky, you have no concept of why the sky is blue, and you need to seek psychological help.
I understand your perspective on night vision being related to psychology. However, night vision involves both biological and psychological aspects. Biologically, night vision relies on the function of the eyes, specifically the rod cells in the retina that detect low light levels. This physiological process is a key part of biology. On the other hand, how we perceive and interpret what we see in low light conditions involves cognitive processes, which is where psychology comes in. So, while the biological mechanisms are crucial for night vision, the way we experience and understand it also involves psychological factors.
There is no way for anything that uses light to determine color with the absence of spectral light. That is what I'm saying. If you think you're seeing colors, you're not.
That’s the thing I for sure am… Yesterday when I took this video that’s published here. I could clearly see the colour on the wall and even see and say how many tapestries are in storage or me describing the colour and pattern on blanket. Wait you should already know this because it was in the video. Though I will 100% bet you. You are unwilling to even hear.
Light is color, and color is light. Without light, there is no color. You are imagining this and need help.
I mean you do realize the moon reflects some light? Though I’m not; I can see how that may break your idea of reality. Also there’s different light spectrums? You sure I’m not seeing a different spectrum.
Yes, I'm sure. You would be seeing nothing but gray.
Well that’s the issue I see colour on trees and stuff around but the sky is grey and clouds white.
You dont. Your brain may be making you think you do, but you don't.
Could you possibly explain how I’d be seeing that without seeing it. Without using things like psychosis and schizophrenia as that’s already been checked and disproven. Many times.. 😂
You aren't. You are hallucinating. You very clearly have schizophrenia, or are having a similarly visually hallucinogenic episode of some psychosis. Same way people will hallucinate a car. If you were tested by having another person there with colors on a card, you would fail. You're hallucinating and mentally unwell.
I appreciate your concern, but I'm confident in my perception and experiences. I understand that my situation might seem unusual, but my observations are consistent and real to me. If there's a discrepancy in perception, it might be related to unique sensory or physiological aspects rather than hallucination. If needed, I can seek professional evaluation to ensure everything is aligned with my overall health.
And I have been.
I appreciate your input. To clarify, my perception of the night sky is light grey. I'm open to discussing the science behind these observations, but let's keep the conversation respectful and focused. If there's a specific point you'd like to discuss, I'm happy to engage with that.
