Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Have this medically: Evaluated. Visual ; auditory hallucination can occur as one is moving from being awake to being asleep and from being asleep to waking up (hypnagogic and hypnapompic hallucinations). But if you hallucinations are not related to sleep - that could be more serious. Take care.

Dr Cunningham and another doctor agreed
