Believe me, they won't do a bloody thing that is useful.  BTDT.  Never got to the bottom of it and as DD got older she convinced herself she had schizophrenia and thus there was no point at exerting herself over anything--better to just enjoy what short time she'd have hold of her sanity than, say, do homework.

Psychiatrists were of no help--for the most part.  Mostly they tried all kinds of heavy duty drugs that didn't do a thing.  I finally took her to one of the leading experts on childhood schizophrenia who was able to convince her she was not schizophrenic and she accepted because he was such an expert.

It is now, many years later that the hallucinations are going away and life is coming together for her but we still have no clear idea what was going on.  Best guess is anxiety driven--suggestion of the schizophrenia doctor.

But I agree in OP's situation, hypnogogic hallucinations are the most likely answer.  [/quote]
