Am I crazy?

About 7 hours ago, at 4 ~ 5 in the morning for me, I saw a shadowy figure pass behind the couch that is behind me, "Walking" towards the room that I sleep in. It is being worked on right now so I figured it was one of my family members going to see the room or change the temperature of the house, but I checked with them 5 minutes after I saw the figure, none of them were back there recently.
So I passed it off as nothing for a while until I got to thinking about the figure. The figure stood at about 6'4" ~ 6'5", an obvious male due to the size of the figure.
Then I remembered that while I was texting someone as I laid on the couch, I heard a sarcastic "Heh." right next to me, as if someone was staring at the screen and reading what I was telling them. I looked at my little brother who was next to me, he was busy with something else and the "Heh." came from a male who has a deep voice. He was also not close enough for the "Heh." to be right in my ear almost.

It's possible, really. Do you do any drugs at all? (Prescription/legals included.)

Okay well, go around the house look under everything (the beds etc), check all the rooms. I'm sure you wont find anything. It's just that sometimes if you stay up late if you are sleepy you may start feeling things. Especially @ night.

Sometimes if you smoke weed you start feeling anxious and you start jumping at everything and you may see things…

Nothing at all like that. I haven't touched any drugs before and I don't really plan to. I'm also adamant against prescription medicine for even something as tedious as a fever.

Yeah, I did that. Just to make sure it wasn't someone trying to rob the house. But there was nothing. Also as I've said, I do not do any drugs of any kind. Legal or not.

Hm. Well I wouldn't worry too much, really. Humans quite often can hallucinate quite easily (look at all the religious folk out there! ;)), and that's why there are so many shows on TV that are certain they see ghosts, aliens, and the like. I wouldn't say all of them are 'crazy,' they just hallucinate. (Some of them definitely are mentally ill, though.)

I'd keep a log, tbh. Doesn't need to be too formal if you're not comfortable with it, just write some notes down on your phone or in a text file or anything. Try to sleep on a good cycle and not to stay up for too long (I sometimes goes days without sleeping and hallucinate quite heavily sometimes). If things continue to stay the same or get worse, you should talk to your primary physician.

You're not crazy. It is possible that certain people see another being, shadow, noise, something like that. That might happen to you another time.
I'm saying this because my dad already seen 'those guys' you're talking about.

I live in a rural area about 7 ~ 10 miles from a city. It's in the country part of the state I live in.

I went out to shop for some things for my room for the past two days and work on my room to get it finished finally. I haven't watched anything in over a week or two and I haven't partied in months.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I'm sort of used to the whole shadow figure thing but this time it just bothered me because I could see it "Walking" to the area of my room. Which I've seen a shadow figure pass by before when I was in my room, on the reflection of the doorknob.

If anything it just helps to get my little event off of my chest and told to others.

Thanks again, I really appreciate it!

If you must logically reason away what happened, I feel sorry for you.
People sit around and come up with entire beliefs just to rationalize what they feel/hear/see/think/etc…

Do you believe you're crazy? I don't know you, so I can't say what i believe.

I believe, and unless I have a first hand experience showing me otherwise, will ALWAYS believe that half of the things doctors diagnose you with are COMPLETE BULLSHIT.
Like ADD or ADHD. Who the fuck wants to pay attention in school. NO ONE.
Don't drug the kid… I had the WORST attention deficit disorder EVER(Ask my teacher, fuck I didn't do ANY{seriously, none. In my state the legal age you MUST start school is 8} school till i was 9 ALMOST 10)…

Nowhere did I say he should be prescribed anything by a doctor, not that he shouldn't.

ADHD (ADD isn't a thing) is a real medical condition. It's just misdiagnosed like mad because so many kids want drugs for free/cheap, and it's a relatively nice drug to enjoy recreationally.

School is stupid, and using it to determine if someone has ADHD/ADHD-PI/whatever is absolute nonsense. I don't care to explain why doctors are so keen on prescribing meds, but it makes complete sense if you know what's going on in the medical world (which I think I can at least partially talk about since I dealt with it for work quite a bit). It's sad, but it's what happens because the world is fucked.

Anyway, offtopic. If a legitimate doctor is to evaluate someone to see if they have a mental illness, you'd have to be a bit of an idiot to not at least listen to them. If you don't trust them, do something logical and get evaluated by more than one doctor.

And just for the record, I dislike most prescription drugs and think almost anything can be treated in a much better way. And doing research and filling yourself with knowledge with what you may be worried about can often help any hallucinations/anxiety, so I'd recommend doing that.

EDIT:

fagex, it's also much more profitable to give them pills.

I agree with you. Although, I'd consider (ADD) Attention Deficit Disorder to be as "real" as ADHD.
All in all, I KNOW people don't all have the same brain capability/attention span/etc…

No, ADD isn't a real medical condition. It's ADHD-PI (not a coincidence I put that in there), Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - Predominantly Inattentive, to be accurate, which I think is a bit important when dealing with the whole medical field..

And I'd say ADHD was a much more rare mutation with early hominids, and they were some of the few people who REALLY had it. To have ADHD several thousands years ago would mean you'd be killed making a mistake by not being able to focus on the task at hand.

Still, off topic.

I'm not the kind of person who believes in ghosts (and I'm not religious at all), but after seeing a picture from my Portugal vacation I have different thoughts. My family and I took a picture from a meeting we had at our local church (family took me). Our aunt gave us the photo and told us to look closely at it. It seemed like there was a transparent man standing behind us. All of us saw the man, which was pretty creepy. Of course, maybe that was our minds playing tricks on us.

I actually had a somewhat related story a year ago.

I was sitting in front of the tv when I heard a cracky noise from my sister's room. Meh its just my sister. Then I hear people laughing and saying crazy stuff like "you're not the one who could be this" which were totally out of context and usually didn't make any sense.

By now, I'm dead paranoid and shitting my pants, don't even dare getting up to turn on the lights because there might be people in my room which I don't know of but will scare me shitless if I turn on the lights.

"Lol i'm high"

Turn on the lights, and there is a little plate with cookies on it with a glass of milk next to it which I assure you I did not make.

Another weird little thing happened during the night last night and I'm not sure if it was the people I live with or if it was the "Shadow person". I woke up and immediately saw that my left side closet door's right door was open about 3/4 of a foot. It was definitely not open before I went to bed.
