What Causes Hallucinations?
My friend really and truly believes that slenderman is real. She says that he is stalking her, and that he wants to end humanity. She even says that she sees him around her house outside and at school at the edge of the woods. She s also very socially awkward/isolated. What mental disorder could she have??

Hi.
This sounds like paranoid schizophrenia with psychotic overtones
She really needs to see a psychiatrist for an evaluation and appropriate medications
