For example, I have this really weird thing I cannot explain, and might be my brain tricking me: Every time I take a nap, the pressure against the pillow hurts my ears. This happens ONLY during naps, never when I go to sleep at nigh (same position, same pillow..). At this point I wonder if my brain is “tricking” me.
In: Biology
Our brains experience the world around us through sensations (the 5 senses). When your body gets a sense, your brain then creates a perception(an interpretation or story of what that sensation means).
So it’s your body feeling like some kind of a sensation and then creating the perception that your ear is being hurt.
Whether or not your ear is actually getting hurt I have no idea haha
