Psychiatrist 's  Response
Dear Lisa,
hearing and seeing things that no other person does when they are with you may be hallucinations and there are number of illness which may lead to such symptoms ranging from psychiatric illness like schizophrenia , depression, drug abuse to organic illness like epilepsy. associated mood swings, anxiety , sleep disturbances may be due to hallucinations or may be associated with an entirely different illness. what you need is a evaluation from Psychiatrist and neuroimaging (MRI brain). if this symptoms are disturbing your daily routine and impairing your social and occupational life you definitely need to take medications.
All the best
