    In view of your other posts and other health issues, you really do need to talk to a responsible person (perhaps a parent) and see a Physician. This is nothing that can be answered on this Board - in my opinion.

    You sound as though you maybe very very tired, to the point of exhaustion. Our minds can play tricks on us sometimes, and we see things differently. I know when I have been totally stressed out and exhausted there's been times that I've seen something of which looked like a cat for example! When I don't have any pets. I know these times come when I'm so tired. The mind is a powerful thing!

    If your not stressed or really tired then I suggest you go and see your doctor and tell them what's happening.

    I don't want to scare you but I really think you need to see a doctor asap!Hallucinations are a common symptom of schizophrenia,I think halluinations are caused by neurons randomly firing in your brain.Seriously go to the doctor.

    Is there any medication your on, over the counter or not?

    How long have you been experiencing this for?

    Yes, seeing a doctor is very important. Like others have mention there are quite a few possibilities.

    I also believe allergic reactions to certain chemicals and other things can have an effect on what you see as well.

    Take care.

    I agree, with your other posts about your health and this one, I strongly urge you to speak to a doctor. If your mother will not take you, see your counselor in school and let them know that you NEED to see a doctor and your not getting to one.

    Drink water because you might be dehydrated. People who are lost in the desert hallucinate a lot of things, like airplanes in the sky when its only a bird or something. It's because they're tired and dehydrated. DRINK WATER

    JudyKayTee, you do understand this is an Advice, see? I'm not a doctor, either are most of us, but we can give positive advices to each other. I'm not trying to get the person to go find some medicines to take or something, I'm just telling her to drink water because that may help.

    The problem with your "advice" is that this person may decide that drinking water is the cure and decide not to see a doctor, which is really the only course of action to take.

    Hallucinations can be caused by many things, dehydration included, but we're not sure that's what's causing this, only a doctor can diagnose this condition.

    You have a right to your opinion, everyone on this site does, but to offer an alternative to seeing a doctor, without being sure your alternative is correct, that can have a very serious effect on the OP.

    This isn't a forum to guess on.

    That's my opinion. :)

    Besides schizophrenia, hallucinations can also occur during very intense bouts of depression. Have you been feeling very depressed lately?

    No matter what it is, if you're seeing things, it's definitely time to call in the experts!

    The doctor, I mean. See a DOCTOR.

    One thing you should do besides going to the doctors and the psychatrists is take vitamin B complex.
    Many people with disorders like this lack vitamin B, especially B6

    This person is 12 years old. I can pretty much guarantee that the hallucinations, if they are true hallucinations, are not caused by dehydration so severe that the response by Survivorboi will help the situation.

    If you all read the OPs other threads, you will notice a pattern develop. This pattern is NOT caused by dehydration, but rather some other disorder that should receive medical attention.

    I've got to say this, Holly - you have blown me away with your apology - no harm, no foul - and thank you. Hope I see you around the board.

    If I can use this post to preach a little bit - I "almost always" take a look at history, past postings before I answer. Very often things are not as they seem. People answer without reading the whole thread a lot of times or without having any idea of the background.

    <clunk> Off my soapbox.

    Yup, I agree. Should see the doctors, drinking water is just a common thing to do, it's just the surface, but finding out the roots of the cause is the main concern.
