hallucinations are a symptom of bipolar disorder yeah?

[Tobin S.]

6. I have a bipolar disorder and I suffered from hallucinations.

A few of them were visual, but most of them were auditory. I later came to realize that the voices I was hearing were actually my own thoughts that had gotten dissociated somehow and given life in the illusion that they were in my ear. It was actually all in my head. So are other hallucinations. They are a product of your own psyche.

So when you are having these hallucinations, if they return, it might be helpful to remember that it is some part of you that is creating them. The hallucinations and your reaction to them are much more manageable if you have that understanding. Where people run into a lot of trouble is by thinking that these events are somehow external to themselves.
