I thought they were demon type things that wiggle their way into your reality after drugs and or sleep deprivation damages your psyche , allowing them access into your space.
I was sleeping and hadn't been up for days or anything, ( I would take pills at night to sleep and I drank alot of liquor.) when I experienced the worst of them , but stimulants like meth and bathsalts crumble my mind to pieces . I'm just not cut out for them. I did em anyway though , and enough times for the so called shadow things to come... . So ...... What I thought was going to be an ordinary crappy day at work.......
Man
Ok the WHOLE store started to fill with , well ... Shadow people. They were lanky and taller then me , some probably around the same height. I'm short so.....
Man , I was hanging up clothes at Goodwill , trying to ignore what was happening and keep my cool around customers / Co workers . I've heard of this happening to people before. I knew why it was happening .
The whole store was full of them, they were just wandering around . Some would come and linger by me . Maybe try to get my attention by staring at me . Didn't see eyes but I didn't look for eyes and anyway I'm pretty sure they were looking at me.
They were EVERYWHERE , even outside the windows . coming in and out of the store
50-60 at least. It was crazy.
I just tried to be brave and ignore them . Fear or acknowledgment of them would probably just of made it worse.
I think just knowing that " shadow people" were a common experience amongst users , helped me to deal with it. I knew right away when I saw them , that must be what people were talking about.
