I've always had visual hallucinations as a child, and that in my teenage years, just after 15, turned to auditory hallucinations. Around that time, there was abuse and marijuana use, I was sad, but so excited to see the world. And, I found it. I found a world around my world, a harsher one. And, it made my hallucinations turn harsh.

Mind reading was the worst, and repetitive thought which was not my own. I could hear the earth and feel everyone's feelings, and, read their mind, too.

I got into Tarot when I was 17. I am more than good at it. I can see plans for people's lives just by their thought and how they use their body language. The spirits help me. I can see their colours and I know what they think of me. And now I don't freak out when a negative thought is had, I can reiterate what I was saying to be less.. invasive or pushy.

Palm reading, it is like, seeing a picture on a hand. A long life? A frayed life? A solid and direct love? A lonely and desperate heart? I can see it.

My psychotic nature is not negative. Yes, sometimes I am confused, between reality and my truth, in high stress situations. But, they are true to me. It's my reality.

Idk insane is a pretty loaded term. Have you ever sought treatment? Is that something you would even want? You seem to be aware of where your reality ends and others begins based on the way you’ve shared your experience. I’m not even sure if you’d be labeled psychotic by every doctor. Hallucinations aren’t typically enough. You can for example hear voices and simply be a voice hearer so long as you recognize that they are in fact not real. Palm reading and the like while not everyone does still fits within the consensus reality. Anyway if you’re up for conversation head over to roll call it’s our check in thread.

I can relate to a fair bit of what you wrote.

Agreed, insane is a loaded term. Often used inaccurately and by those with ill intentions.
