My daughter is nine. She has
Bipolar among other stuff she takes lithium cymbalta and strattera. They have changed her meds so many times up down do this take that over the last three months every 2 weeks. She now is seeing things. Very clearly and in great detail. So fearful. She has always seen things but was able to understand it was her mind tricking her now she is not able. 100 percent believes it to be true. Any thoughts ideas or ways to help during will be greatly appreciated. Ty

Anti-depressents can cause psychosis. Look into adding an anti psychotic like Abilify.

So sorry to hear about your daughters situation. And yes, hallucinations is not unususal with BP. And of course, meds might have something to do with it. Wish you and your daughter the best of luck.
