But yes, other changes in the brain can certainly bring it out. For me, its that (this isn't psychosis -- it has gone on 5 years, I acutely remember for before, faintly) I live in my world and everybody else lives in the world I would normally live in, the one where I can walk down the street at night and not be particularly aware of headlights and traffic lights, movie marquees, etc, while everybody filters those out in time measured in small milliseconds and mine are much larger milliseconds.
