| A mild form of hallucination is known as a disturbance, and can occur in any of the [[senses]] above. These may be [[things]] like, seeing movement in [[peripheral]] [[vision]], or hearing faint [[noises]] and/or [[voices]]. Auditory hallucinations are very common in paranoid schizophrenia. They may be benevolent (telling the patient [[good]] things about themselves) or malicious, [[cursing]] the patient etc. Auditory hallucinations of the malicious type are frequently heard like people talking about the patient behind their back. Like auditory hallucinations, the [[source]] of their visual [[counterpart]] can also be behind the patient's back. Their visual counterpart is the [[feeling]] of being looked-stared at, usually with malicious [[intent]]. Frequently, auditory hallucinations and their visual counterpart are [[experienced]] by the patient together. | | A mild form of hallucination is known as a disturbance, and can occur in any of the [[senses]] above.
