Not delusions(where you believe something is real that isn’t), hallucinations specifically.
In: 6
A hallucination is a sensory thing. Like a dream where you “see” things in your mind that aren’t really there, a hallucination is like a dream your mind made up that hits your senses when you are conscious therefore creating the illusion that it is there.
It can hit all 5 at once (typically schizophrenia)
Maybe it just hits your sense of vision (seeing things that only your mind thinks is there)
Maybe it hits your sense of touch (ahh there’s bugs on me I feel it)
Maybe it hits your hearing (I know I can hear someone talking from my closet every night and we have convos)
So hallucinations are generally the result of a brain disorder, or so they call it lol. Could be withdrawal, lack of sleep, schizophrenia, and also more recently terminal illnesses. In this case, a hallucination can also be your minds way of processing information that may be too extreme and abrupt for your emotions and body to handle at that time, therefore the information shoots to your senses and people experience that information through that of a hallucination.
I tried to explain it in a way that would make sense lol it’s actually a really cool topic to get into! Some people actually enjoy their hallucinations as long as they are aware that it is in fact just your minds way of processing information by way of your 5 senses. Hope that helps!
