It depends on if you're psychotic or just having one those moments like when you are between sleep and wakeness which is actually normal. I've hallucinated texting someone in that state.

If you're in a state of psychosis like I was back in September:

-- I actually SAW things and even felt things that were not there. Like someone coming in through my window, brushing up against me, and leaving the room, my curtains even billowed like the window was open.

-- I constantly heard the voices of my friends and not like "inner dialogue" more like hearing a radio like they are actually in front of you talking to you.

-- I heard someone in the attic constantly following me through the house. Even went into the garage finally to open the attic and a shadow came hurling at me even heard the thumps. Of course I ran out the garage.

-- I too would hear messages through the radio, like warnings, or personal attacks towards me. If i watched tv I would be watching something totally different then everybody else but we would be on the same channel. Like one night we watched the movie "Avatar" and the scenery was about the same but the story line and the dialogue was completely different. I remember thinking what the hell someone re did this movie to attack me???? All the shows and movies were like that I was terrified.....

-- I can't tell you how many spiders I hallucinated...it was a lot...

--while in the hospital I saw smoke.....

--much more!

I won't even begin to tell you about the delusions I had (like thinking my dad was in some sort of secret government agency and my mom was a cover wife). There is a difference between a hallucination and a delusion. If you have both...it sucks....


lil-angel-wings----- I can't believe you're going through all that without medication. I actually give you big kudos on that! I kinda wish I could've done the same but then I would have lost my job and that probably would have been it for me. You've got some strength in you! Big hugs to you!
