I think hypnopompic and hypnogogic hallucinations often coincide with BP and SzA. I never used to get them until I started getting hallucinations during the day, and I think you treat them with an antidepressant, just like you *might* treat BP with an antidepressant (assuming you can tolerate antidepressants). I read the antidepressant thing sometime a while back, so I don't have a source for this.

I know I tend to dissociate whenever I get hallucinations, and my therapist told me that it's not uncommon for people to dissociate when hallucinating (or even delusional). I'm guessing that's why dissociation is often listed as an unofficial symptom of Sz, SzA, and BP with psychotic features. It seems to be a "side effect" of the psychosis.

I just get really confused and I feel out of place whenever I hallucinate. I think that's why I feel detached from the world. Not sure if it's a subconscious coping mechanism or not, though.
