I heard today that this poison in small doses could cause hallucinations. I have seen ghost and experienced entities and sleep paralisis. I'm a home-body.......I even work at home and rarely leave. Could CMP be the reason I see/feel/hear these
things. Also does CM sink to the ground...I have a bad back
and sleep on the floor at night.

Hey dont worry Carbon Monoxide [CO] is lighter than air, therefore it is always above the normal layer of air we breath. CO has a dose related effect.
<10% in blood - mild headache,difficulty in breathing
10-20% in blood - throbbing headache,muscular weakness, in-coordination
at this stage itself its dangerous as u cant escape the location due to the in-coordination.
30-40% - Dizziness nausea vomiting
40-50% - collapses

there is no history of hallucinations, also for u to get to a stage of mental confusion it has to be a high concentration.
also everyone else in the house must be going through the same symptoms.

if u still scared get the people to check ur CO levels
get out of the house more some sunshine and fresh air will fix u right up

It could be. It is heavier than air so it will sink to thte floor. And then again, maybe the hallucinations are part of the condition that causes you to stay indoors all the time.

I think it is time to see a Doc. Or at the very least, have the CO level in your house checked. It could save your life.
