Advice on how to help with hallucinations?

Anonymous Wed 28 Oct 2015 21:25:52 No.16403128 View Reply Report Delete

A friend of mine is hallucinating badly right now. She says she's seeing red-eyed monsters in the shadows of her room, and she says they're coming towards her and are going to grab her if she moves.
Is there anything I can do/say to sooth and help her? Anybody who has hallucinations or know somebody who does willing to help?

Just talking to someone usually helps me when I hallucinate. Having to focus on a conversation is soothing. But then again, my hallucinations are usually more benign.

Hey anon, i had drug induced psyhotic epispdodes including hallicinations where i couldnt recognise family members, including crazy sound loops. Best thing was my sister just chilling out telling me to focus on an object and just relaxin. It will pass and you can rofl about it one day. Plus see a psychiatrist.

Psychosis requires medical treatment, not some jackass who asks 4chan how to deal with it/

Indeed it does, but as in my case, i was too scared to go anywhere or do anything when experiencing hallucinations, best thing was having people who care about me there to reassure me, before heading off to hospital an hour or two later

She needs medication and if she is doing drugs she needs to stop. My meds keep me from halucinating but staying clean helps the most. You need to help your friend to feel comfortable to seek help before it gets worse. There have been times in my life where the hallucinations were so bad that i attempt suicide just to make them stop. Get them help before they begin to think the only way to make them stop is death

Tell her to make sure everything is bright in the room, kinda helps a bit and adds more clarity and reality to things.
