Hey, guys and girls, I have a question about auditory hallucinations. I am not much of a smoker but I have reason to believe that a friend of mine, who smokes 3-4 times a week, has been experiencing auditory hallucinations.

How do I know? Well, it's very weird. Sometimes I would be in the same room with him talking and suddenly he would start mumbling something like he is talking to someone only he can hear.

Now I have heard about auditory hallucinations but I don't know if people talk back to the voices they hear. And I am also bothered by the fact some of these episodes happen not immediately after he smokes but just kind of...during the regular times of the day...

Basically, I am kind of worried that this is not just some interesting marijuana side effect but may be he has some mental problem. He doesn't act in any weird ways other than the occasional mumbling. I'm thinking, if he were schizophrenic or depressed or something else, there would be other sings, too...

Has anyone had an experience with auditory hallucinations? Have you ever, when you were high, caught yourself talking back to something that isn't there?

Any insight is appreciated. I don't smoke and have no idea what these things feel like do I have respect and tolerance for smokers.
