What Causes Hallucinations, Loss Of Concentration And Paranoia?

Hi,

I am currently having episodes of seeing things that aren't there, sometimes outlines of figures and objects.

I also see things move a lot.

I do wear glasses, I am short sighted in my left eye.

I am becoming increasingly paranoid, lose concentration (I am studying my a levels), and feel like people are watching me and know what I am thinking.

I am prepared to go to the doctors or speak to a specialist, I just need advice.
