    Orbita: The Thing You Walked Past

    An urban explorer found a hairless head with an impossibly long neck peering from a window in an abandoned Ukrainian tower. His car was later found with a shattered rear door and deep scratches, yet no police report was filed. If that thing was already inside the building when he arrived at noon, how many floors did he walk past it without knowing?

    In this episode, we delve into the chilling account of an amateur photographer's encounter in Orbita, a ghost town near Chernobyl, and the unsettling questions that linger about what truly lurks in its desolate buildings.

    Location: Orbita, Ukraine

    He Gouged His Eyes Out to See YES

    Imagine a void: a three-dimensional black nothing stretching in every direction, no edges, no shapes, no color. This is how one man experienced every moment of his life, and the lengths he went to change it are horrifyingly logical. What could drive someone to such an extreme act?

    In this episode, we explore the case of a man born with aphantasia, a condition where the mind's eye is absent. We delve into his lifelong struggle with the inability to form mental images and the desperate, coherent logic that led him to a shocking decision.

    Condition: Aphantasia
    Diagnosis: Confirmed in childhood
    Treatment: None available
    Fear: Forgetting loved ones' faces
    Solution Attempted: Photography, medication, hallucinogens

    - He was born with aphantasia, a condition where the neural architecture for voluntary mental imagery never developed.
    - Doctors confirmed his diagnosis but offered no treatment, only a name for his emptiness.
    - His childhood fears included getting lost without being able to picture home and forgetting loved ones' faces immediately after they were out of sight.
    - He used photography as a partial solution, constantly taking pictures to store images his mind could not.
    - After exhausting external options like therapy, medication (Paxil, Wellbutrin, Xanax, Zoloft), and hallucinogens (acid, psilocybin mushrooms, DMT), he concluded the answer had to come from within.
