Oneirophrenia (from the Greek words "ὄνειρος" (oneiros, "dream") and "φρήν" (phrēn, "mind")) is a hallucinatory, dream-like state caused by several conditions such as prolonged sleep deprivation, sensory deprivation, or drugs (such as the oneirogens ibogaine and harmaline). Oneirophrenia is often confused with an acute case of schizophrenia due to the onset of hallucinations.
