I keep getting tactile hallucinations

I have bugs crawling all over me it feels like, then its a wasp sting with a dull pain. I don’t know how to fix it. Does anyone else get this from their illness?. And yes, I recognize that most get these hallucinations, but mine are way surreal before I had these from hallucinations.

I saw an exterminator in my old apartment building leaving one day and that same night I felt fleas crawling all over my body. We had no fleas. I put a fan on me all night long and it helped. Another time my mom’s aunt got bed bugs from going to the casino and when I found out for 2 days I felt bugs crawling up my legs. I also had for no reason, because I wasn’t sexually active or had any kidney stones, had a burning urethra and a burning anus. It was so bad I went to the emergency room. They have me an IV bag of something and thought it was from unprotected sex. I haven’t had sex of any kind in 13 years. That same night once I got home it started burning again. I got up and went to the kitchen. My mom left an undrank drink on the counter. I thought she was poisoning my vitamins to cause this burning. I thought the drink was the antidote. I drank it and the pain vanished. I think you just have to wait for it to pass. Easier said than done when you’re suffering. Hope things get better for you.

Wow, that’s quite a story. A few other times I’ve had a creepy girl touching me when I was trying to run away, then I also had a hallucinations like my legs were on fire. Scary stuff.

I hope you won’t experience it again.

I’ve been dealing with tactile hallucinations a lot lately myself. Unfortunately I don’t have any good advice on how to cope. For me it feels like thousands of spiders crawling all over me.

How long do the tactile hallucinations last? Is it an all day and night kind of thing? I know for me it gets worse when I’m under a lot of stress.

I get bad headaches, perhaps, from the energy drinks or caffeine.

I get a painful sensation in my head and sometimes my body.

When I’m sleeping, in the past, I’ve interacted with my hallucinations. I wonder if these are considered tactile hallucinations.

Sometimes, I think it’s another dimension or past life or parallel universe. I have false memories and can’t trust my memories anymore.

It seems to have stopped lately.

I don’t know. I’m generally curious if these visual hallucinations of people messing with me are considered tactile hallucinations. It seems rare or impossible. I thought they were aliens, sleep paralysis, nightmares, or night terrors.

Maybe it’s just schizophrenia. I sometimes think it’s my subconsciousness or imagination. I don’t like it at all.

It’s all day, basically.

Yeah, tactile hallucinations are no fun. I also get visual hallucinations quite frequently.
