What do you mean by passing the hollow mask illusion? Did you see the illusion?

I saw the nose stick out (normal). A schizophrenic brain wouldn't be fooled by the illusion.

So you did get fooled by it.

It is normal to get fooled by optical illusions. What they do is trick our brains so that is why it's called an illusion. But I read autistic people are not fooled by optical illusions that show which circle is bigger or what square is wider or if the lines are straight or crooked. I am fooled by those things even though I know they are the same size and the lines are straight. Do you get fooled by these too? But if I look closely, i see they are the same.

Like we both know the face is hollow but it looks like it sticks out again after it rotates. I could not get myself to see the hollow face no matter how hard I looked.

.

My eyes are fooled by the optical illusion where you asked which line is longer but I know from experience and logic that they are the same.

My brain is fooled by optical illusions. Sometimes I know that it is an optical illusion, but that doesn't mean that I am not fooled by it.

I had not been by to say hello to you, today, and wanted to do so, before I retire for the night, although, perhaps it is too late. I hope not.

Goodnight, SSF, and all, here...

Sorry! It was a little late for me because I'm going to bed really early in order to get up for school on time (it's in just a few days!). Good morning :mrgreen:

OK as well

. I can't wait for school, to be honest. Almost all my paranoid thoughts stopped when I went to camp, so I feel like school will be a good distraction
