How Does It's not just in your head Work?

It’s not just in your head, it’s real, and other people can see it too.

Imagine you're playing hide-and-seek with your friends. You peek through a crack in the wall and see one of them hiding behind the couch. But when you shout “I see you!” they jump out and say, “No fair! You cheated!” That's like how it’s not just in your head, you really saw them, but they didn’t believe you at first.

Sometimes things feel like only you can see or hear them. It might be a funny noise in your ear, or a color that looks different to you than it does to others. But just because it’s special to you doesn’t mean it's not real, other people can sometimes see the same thing too, even if they don’t realize it at first.

Think of it like seeing a shadow on the wall that only you notice. You know it's there, but your friend looks and sees nothing. That’s how it feels when other people don’t see what you do, but that doesn't mean it's not real. It just means they haven’t noticed yet! It’s not just in your head, it’s real, and other people can see it too.
