i was told, by my pdoc, that i have had non-psychotic hallucinations. I'm really not sure what that is and I was hardly at my best at the time, but I think he was telling me it was a little abnormal but not pathological. I still hear people call my name or hear conversations that aren't happening and mistake common objects, like mailboxes, for people, but I don't think it's a big concern.
