ELI5: what is the difference between auditory hallucinations and regular thoughts?

More specifically, the differences in thought process.

Example: is having a conversion with yourself something an average person would do?

The thing about an hallucination is that, to the person having it, it's not distinguishable from reality. So an auditory hallucination is not a thought, it's not a voice "in your head", it's an *actual sound*. 

Same way a visual one would be actually seeing something. And yes, you can have hallucinations with *every* sense.
