Yes that's silent migraine with aura, you experience the visual effects but not the headache. It's rare but happens for some people.

The representation is really good in my opinion! Gives me flashbacks.



I suppose an even better one would be "looking through broken glass that keeps fucking moving around".

The weirdest thing I discovered was that, back when I juggled professionally, I couldn't read at all during that aura but could still juggle, even hard things like 5+ balls. Strangely it did not screw up peripheral vision.

Worst time was when it came on before a music school performance. Not a hope in hell of keeping track of which line the little circles were on...
