Question about this. After how many hours awake is it 'normal' to hallucinate? I have hallucinated before several times, but it was always when I was sleep-deprived, so I never said anything to my pdoc. But in the past, I would have to stay up 2 nights or so to hallucinate. Now I hallucinate staying up even one night! At what point is it a true hallucination and not just sleep-deprivation?
