• Hearing things other people can't hear like voices of people whispering or talking.
• Being confused at times whether something you experienced was real or imaginary.
• Seeing things that other people apparently can't see.
• Seeing special meanings in advertisements, shop windows, or in the way things are arranged around you.
• Mistaking noises for voices or messages
