Abstract
Psychosis is a complex and multifaceted mental health condition that significantly alters an individual's perception of reality, encompassing a profound impact on their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. This condition often marks a departure from the shared consensus reality that most people experience, leading to a range of disturbances in cognitive and sensory processes. One hallmark feature of psychosis is the occurrence of hallucinations, wherein individuals perceive stimuli that are not objectively present. Auditory hallucinations, such as hearing voices or sounds, are common, as are visual hallucinations where individuals may see things that others do not [1]. These sensory distortions can be vivid and compelling, creating an alternate reality for the affected person. The experience of hallucinations can be distressing, causing a profound disruption to one's sense of self and understanding of the world.
