    I strongly suggest getting help for this. You are at an age where the development of schizophrenia is very possible.

    No, I would speak to a therapist, it could simply be stress causing these things to happen but it could also be something much more serious, either way i would see the doctor. At 23 (especially if you happen to be female) you’re at prime age to start developing a multiple personality disorder.

    Please see a psychologist. This is not normal and can be dangerous to yourself or others. I've started hallucinating in the past year as well, and I thought I was fine. But I started having panic attacks and really intense delusions that started impacting my work and social lives. With therapy and the right medications they're a lot less frequent and easier to manage now. Please please please seek help, if you work on it early enough it'll make less of an impact later.

    I have hallucinations when I'm about to fall into a deep sleep, or sometimes when I'm just waking up, but that's it.

    I'm younger than you and I experience the exact same things.. I wanted to go see someone for it but I'm not sure, I wouldn't say it's normal
