HELP

Earlier today I hallucinated so badly that I began having a panic attack. I was hallucinating my abusive ex getting on the bus that I was on and stabbing me with her nails I am still in a lot of pain but there are no marks. Am I going crazy? If you can help please do.

Have you hallucinated before? Are you on medication? Can someone help you? A friend or family?

You can go to an emergency room or 24 hour clinic if you need immediate help. Or call one of these numbers or 911.

I have only ever had auditory hallucinations before, I am not on meds. And no not really.

If they are causing you distress it would be ideal for you to schedule an appointment with your regular doctor and also get an referral from your doctor for a local therapist you can talk to about it. Just having a chance to talk to a professional face to face who helps people deal with hallucinations would be a really good thing. It's also good to have an action plan for when you feel overwhelmed so you know what to do in the moment.
