Coining the term Quasi-Psychosis

[Windappreciator]

Let us first start by defining the term Imagination as a conjuring and visual/audial perception of any form and color. 

In perspective, this is done consciously or unconsciously, although from the absolute always consciously (kinda sick of saying that, but it's just to cover the smartasses). 

In unconscious ways, what we share as a somewhat common Imagination we call that 'consensual reality', like Leo once mentioned. "I see a red car, you see a red car". Although this may not be fully consensual, then "my red is redder than yours", there still is a big perceived intersection. But there can still be differences. If perceived differences are too big, especially on the audial/visual side such that it is obviously alienated for the majority, we call it psychosis.

This was for the part of the unconscious Imagination that is not consensual.

Now for the conscious.

You can consciously imagine something that does not break you from the unconscious Imagination as consensual reality (obviously you can be conscious of imaging consensual reality, but assuming this the case for everyone, then what is consensual and what not will only be what I haven't met yet). 

To that Imagination you have added feelings and thoughts.

If a feeling is particularly strong, you can conjure Imaginations that still do not break your sense of consensual reality, but rather pull you parallel to consensual reality (really sick of writing that) into that Imagination where you can more vividly examine the visual and audial forms of that feeling/ you associate with that feeling.

That pull can still be strong enough to have it's own real impact on you but it is not losing you to mistaking it for consensual reality.

I would welcome actual criticism.
