I have BPD and when I get particularly stressed I hallucinate. Auditory hallucinations mainly, if I happen to be pretty tired at the same time I sometimes have visual hallucinations. My psychiatrist calls them “pseudo hallucinations” because I can usually understand that they aren’t real, even if I respond to them sometimes. 

Anyway. Music is a huge helper with this. Usually I can put on any heavy bass music (VERY loudly in my ears) and it’ll quieten things down. If they are more persistent I tend to titrations the music upwards in heaviness. Like I’ll start with something like Caravan Palace, and slowly go to Breaking Benjamin, Motionless in White, Disturbed... And so on.

Does anyone else do this? It’s the best way I can cope.
