I sometimes have mild auditory hallucinations—hearing music playing, hearing people talking, etc. But one thing I've been noticing a lot lately is that I perceive sounds to be coming from a different direction than they actually are. Someone will walk in front of me and I'll hear their footsteps behind me thinking someone else is there; my dog is sitting next to me but I hear him licking his lips across from me; someone calls to me and it sounds like their voice is coming from behind (once I didn't recognize my moms voice because I thought it was someone else yelling). It's very strange and becoming more frequent, although I feel pretty stable right now.
Does this happen to anyone else? Is there a word for it?
