This morning I woke up thinking my fiance was standing next to my bed when he wasn't. It only lasted a few seconds until I was fully awake and the figure/vision vanished away. It really scared me. I've been under a lot of stress lately and was wondering if anyone has experienced something similiar or can relate to? Scared to go to bed tonight in case it happens again Hmm Can this be anxiety related?

The hallucinations I get aren't to do with anxiety as I'm not really an anxious person.
I do get very tired due to my meds though & tiredness makes them more likely!

@Terralee that must be very scary. What meds do you take to help your condition? Luckily I did not experience the sleepy hallucination this morning so fingers crossed it stays that way!

I take Aripiprazole 30mg for the psychotic symptoms which also include paranoia
