My "hallucinations" are less severe. The only way I know they're not real is because they only happen when I am in a mixed state. I just hear my name called repeatedly, in different voices, including my father's (he's been dead for 17 years). I also see people out of the corner of my eye. I used to see someone attacking me from behind but I haven't had that in years.

However my paranoia can get quite severe. Last year around this time I was trapped in a bathroom at group because I thought all the people could read my thoughts and were trying to get me to kill myself through telepathic messages. That was terrifying.
