-Psionics is the study and practice of the mind to make paranormal phenomenon. Abilities like telepathy, telekinesis, and other workings of the outside world through the psyche.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psionics)
Everyone is naturally a psionic, but most people doubt the reality of being a psionic. Everyone has each psychokinetic ability, we just choose not to use them for whatever reason. All psychokinesis abilities exist in the real world, and anyone can become a psionic, they need the knowledge of psi energy and mind powers to do all this to a unlimited extent. Believe, practice, and help people to become who they really are. sixth sense, is something we all have, but it is dormant and we have to re learn to use them again.

This is a list of some of the psychokinetic abilities that one can develop:
- Telekinesis - Enables one to influence on matter using only their mind (you ol' "move things with the mind")
- Pyrokinesis -The speeding up of the naturally occurring vibrations of atoms in matter to alter temperature, possibly to the point of ignition if combustible
- Hydrokinesis - Hydrokinesis is the elemental ability to create, generate, control, and manipulate liquid water in a numerous variety
- Geokinesis - Is the psi power to manipulate earth or metal with the mind.
- Aerokinesis - Aerokinesis is the power to control and manifest, wind currents, and control air with the mind.
- Electrokinesis - Is the psi power to manipulate energies, electrical currents, and generate static electricity with the mind.
- Cryokinesis - The ability to Slow down the vibrations of particles/atoms in matter to alter temperature, possibly to the point of freezing an object completely.
- Chronokinesis - The psi power to control one's perception of time (and perhaps, to a certain extent, space) through the mind.

How does one tell the difference between psionics and hallucination?
Crazy people don't know they're crazy. - "It's real no matter what anyone says!"
Sane people question their sanity. - "I must be losing my mind."
It's funny cuz they can't (@ "if someone had, maybe they can answer you.").
I actually do have experience with engaging with these types of people. Ranging from young adult, to one foot in the grave. Some of them, or most, there's something else going on inside of their head that makes them think delusion is real. I figure since they're not hurting anyone, why bother cluing them in? I especially like to leave old-crazy people alone regarding their delusions if they're not hurting anyone (because I mean, they're old, leave em alone and don't take away their happiness if it's not hazardous, ya know?). For others however, I believe they're just misguided and seeing what they want to see. Like when people think they have telepathy. It's never something people do intentionally, something that can be controlled (although there are a few with some mental problems that think some person somewhere across the world is telepathically communicating to them even though they never call them to find out because of deeper paranoid issues). It's usually people like couples or family members or best friends (and sometimes not even) where something happens that makes people think they can sometimes telepathize with someone else. And I don't think it's really telepathy. I think it's just that people are smart. Sometimes things are predictable. And when it's not, sometimes people just think alike. Or sometimes people just know someone well enough, or sometimes even assume, and just get it right.
But I have had experience with people who think they have psi-abilities. Personally, I see this whole stuff as a different level of playing pretend. I always find it interesting how when you ask someone to show you, they have an excuse of why they cannot. And to date, there are zero videos of this evidence. Zero. I know because I wasted my time looking for them and have seen all sorts of hat tricks. Although I wouldn't really call it waste. It's still a learning experience.
On another note, magicians are fun.
Well, it seems quite interesting, so its kind of a separate reality for each one of them yet they form communities?
It's interesting because individuals with that type of behavior tend to avoid social interactions, but I guess that's actually the reason of why you only find them in the internet, I know it because I'm a bit like that (in the avoiding social interactions aspect).
However that has became more usual that is almost normal, again here is where one's definition of concepts matter, or more specifically, from which point of view you are defining it, from the point of view of the average person who don't belive in what we may do, we may be crazy.
So I think what is accepted as normal is what most people belive in at the time (until a new discovery prove they are wrong, and the definition changes again).
How can you tell the difference between real and not real? because others can see what you see? because you can touch it? because it actually affect the physical "reality"?
No idea, I've never mastered any of those abilities, if someone had, maybe they can answer you.
Now if you go to the wikia I linked (http://psi.wikia.com) and read some comments and look at the comunity you will see that either:
a) What they say is truth, and they can actually do that.
b) They are living in a massive illusion/fantasy.
To be fair, from the perspective of a newcomer to this site, the situation would be the same, so we can't really judge them.
P.S: By the way, that's not the only comunity, the "Psionic" movement (sometimes called differently) is huge, However! I don't know the existence of a group that practices this in real life (like it happens with witchcraft).
