Is this characteristic of people with bipolar? I am confused because a psychology teacher told me that people with mental illnesses such as bipolar or schizophrenia only have AUDITORY hallucinations, and the only way a person can have visual hallucinations is from drugs or alcohol, or withdrawal from these substances.
The boy I work with is 11 and has been describing hallucinations he has of ghost girls who come into his room and stare at him. He is very frustrated because when he tells his parents, they tell him that its just his imagination... but its real to HIM! COuld this be due to bipolar, and if so, how can I help him????
