> "Everyone experiences hallucinations," Anil Seth, a neuroscientist at the University of Sussex in the UK, told DW.

> "It's important to recognize hallucinations can come and go during our lives at points of stress or tiredness," Seth said. "There is a bit of a stigma around hallucinations. It comes from people associating them with mental illness and being called crazy."
