i am so glad to see this thread.my ex-husband has pseudo hallucinations every day. we talked about his. he "sees" a guy someitmes...but mostly he hears him inside his head and then verbally answers the guy. he knows i can't hear the guy. i asked him if he thought the guy was real. today he says no, he is not real.
in the past tho he has said it's difficult for him to differentiate what is real and not real. makes sense.
tonite the guy inside his head was threatening him...knock down david's door, etc which must be terrifying. we talked about this. i told him the guy is not real, for real, but in david's mind he seems real. i suggested he answer the guy and say, i know you are not real. i know you can't knock down my door because you are not real. i also reminded him that we love him and would never allow this guy to hurt david.
so that's my spin on this thread. i also told david since he was having a good lucid day that the voice might be trying to lure him back cause he's mad since david hasn't given him as much attention today.
david was mentally exhausted tonite and went to bed early..i'm hoping tomorrow will be less intrusive for him with his thoughts/hallucinations. each day is different.
