It's important to understand the difference between whether something is "real" and what its exact mode of existence is. Anything you interact with, including thoughts, are real, but they're not necessarily physical structures acting mechanically. Maybe you can see ghosts if there actually are any, or maybe you see hallucinations. Even hallucinations have their own systems they function under, and if you're coherent enough to type, then you can learn how these things work. Things that don't have a solid form are expressed symbolically; When you see a person who looks like such and such and tell you about their lives before death, that doesn't mean they're literally in that spot or they literally look like that or there was ever a living person with that biography, but those images do reflect something about their more abstract nature. It's similar to understanding dreams or art, whether it's coming from your unconscious, or the world's.
I'd recommend studying depth psychology in some form, something which gets into how the unconscious works and communicates with your consciousness. My recommendation is Carl Jung, or later psychologists' digestions thereof.
Is it normal I see stuff and nobody believes me?
