Many new parents are struggling with depression and post-born anxiety. What is rarer, some experience psychosis after childbirth, which can cause hallucinations.

For example, if a mother believes that she heard her baby cry when she didn't actually. In a more extreme case, a mother could have heard a voice telling her to kill her child.

Because psychosis after childbirth can harm babies and interfere with relationships between parents and children, rapid treatment is very important. Therapy, treatment, and social support can help.

People experience anxiety and depression, they may experience periodic hallucinations. These hallucinations usually take place very briefly and are often related to certain emotions that these people are feeling.

Some people with migraines experience hallucinations during or just before migraines. This halucination is often visual. A person may see spots and colors that are not present or other unusual pictures.

Some people experience hallucinations that doctors attribute to sleep disorders. Hallucinations usually appear when a person falls asleep or wakes up. In some cases, hallucinations occur along with episodes of sleep paralysis, which occurs when a person wakes up and temporarily cannot move.

People with hearing or visual impairments may experience hallucinations. This may be caused by brain changes in sensory processing areas or in visual or hearing information received by the brain.

In some cases, hallucinations may not be related to diseases or drugs. Sometimes, the strength of suggestive triggers hallucinations.
