Hallucinations and delusions are both symptoms commonly associated with mental health disorders, particularly psychosis. They both involve a disconnection from reality, where hallucinations involve perceiving things that aren't present (like seeing or hearing nonexistent stimuli), while delusions are false beliefs held despite evidence to the contrary. Both can significantly impact an individual's thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Additionally, they often occur together in various psychiatric conditions, complicating diagnosis and treatment.
