ligidüsimetripaanik

ligidüsimetripaanik is a hypothetical psychological phenomenon described in speculative fiction. It refers to an acute and overwhelming sense of dread and disorientation experienced when encountering geometric patterns or shapes that deviate from expected or familiar arrangements. This is not a recognized clinical diagnosis in psychology or psychiatry. The concept often appears in narratives exploring themes of cosmic horror, alien perception, or the breakdown of reality. Individuals experiencing ligidüsimetripaanik, within these fictional contexts, might feel an intense unease, a sense of profound wrongness, or even a perceived threat to their sanity when exposed to such stimuli. The specific nature of the geometric anomaly that triggers this response can vary, but it typically involves a violation of established spatial logic or symmetry. The term itself is a neologism, combining elements that suggest "twisted" or "disordered" shapes and a state of panic. Its use is confined to creative works and does not reflect any real-world psychological condition.
