- Visual (seeing things that aren't there)
- Tactile (feeling things that aren't there)
- Delusions:
- Grandeur (believing you have special abilities)

- Religious (believing you have a special connection to God)
- Disorganization:
- Thought (difficulty concentrating or following a train of thought)
- Speech (disjointed or illogical speech)
- Activity (unusual or purposeless movements)
- Often preceded by a prodromal period: This is a period of time before the full-blown symptoms appear, where subtle changes in behavior or thinking may be noticed.
