"When we press on our eyes with our hands, we see lights and shapes that, after pressing for a while, reveal the workings of the eye. Shawn had a similar intruder pressing in on his "seat of consciousness," and what do we get? Thornton's cartography of inner space. Further proof for the Nietzschean or Deleuzian belief in the productivity, or even the affirmation, of sickness; sickness that forces us to confront the multiplicity of the Self. Seems true enough in Shawn's case: "I felt a strong disconnect to the imagery and things that were manifesting inside me." And what does he do with it? He tries to articulate this disconnect; make plain the relationship he is having with his "invisible assailants," all the other things or forces muscling into his Self."
