==Psychiatric Definition==[[Hallucination]]s are usually defined in [[psychiatry]] as "[[false ]] perceptions," that is, perceptions which arise "in the absence of an appropriate [[external ]] stimulus."<ref>American [[Psychiatric ]] [[Association]]. 1987. p.398</ref>

==Psychotic Hallucinations==[[Lacan]] finds such definitions inadequate, since they ignore the [[dimension ]] of [[meaning]] and [[signification]].<ref>{{Ec}} p.77; {{E}} p.180</ref>

[[Hallucination]]s are a typical phenomenon of [[psychosis]], and are usually auditory (hearing voices), but may also be [[visual]], somatic, tactile, olfactory, or gustatory. --

A [[hallucination]] is the [[return ]] of this [[foreclosed]] [[signifier]] in the dimension of the [[real]]; "that which has not emerged into the light fo the [[symbolic ]] appears in the real."<ref>{{Ec}} p.388</ref> THis is not to be confused with [[projection]], which [[Lacan]] regards as a mechanism proper to [[neurosis]] rather than [[psychosis]]. In this distinction, [[Lacan]] follows [[Freud]]'s analysis of [[Schreber]]'s [[hallucination]]s.

<blockquote>"It was incorrect This is not to say that the perception be confused with [[projection]], which suppressed internally is projected outwards; the truth is [[Lacan]] regards as a [[mechanism]] proper to [[neurosis]] rather, as we now see, that what was abolished internally returns from without.<ref>than [[Freud|Freud, Sigmundpsychosis]]. 1911c. SE XII. p.71</ref></blockquote>

While <blockquote>"It was incorrect to say that the [[hallucinationperception]]s are most commonly associated with which suppressed internally is projected outwards; the [[psychosistruth]]is rather, there is another sense in which they play an important part in the as we now see, that what was abolished internally returns from without.<ref>[[structureFreud|Freud, Sigmund]] of .

==Structure of Desire==While [[Freudhallucination]] argues that "s are most commonly associated with [[tpsychosis]]he first wishing seems to have been a hallucinatory cathecting of , there is [[another]] [[sense]] in which they play an important part in the memory [[structure]] of satisfaction."<ref>[[Freud|Freud, Sigmunddesire]] in all [[subject]]s. 1900a.
