Hi xjs7,
first off, I'm sorry to hear you're having such a rough time of things, it sounds really really difficult.The reason I'm posting is that many years ago when young and largely stupid, my mates and I got mashed several days on the trot with not a lot of sleep. B.T.W. at that time, none of us had any mental problems, just pickled livers. One mate thought it would be particularly funny to stay up for 3 days. Interestingly, he began seeing things such as cars beginning to float off the road and fences moving and things. This was when he was sober by the way. He thought it was brilliant. <sigh>
So, it's possible [repeat, *possible* :-) ] that your visual and auditory hallucinations are largely or even wholly a function of your lack of sleep.
Just a suggestion,
best wishes,
pete.
