No voices (that are external anyway; I haven’t really delved into the concept of internal voices). I consider myself very lucky.

I haven’t heard any voices, but I have heard people several blocks away talking to me. I also think that sometimes the people on the radio and tv are talking to me.

without meds I was hearing voices all the time, with meds just sometimes.

strangely this poll is polar opposite of the other thread…90% heard voices on other thread…now here those who hear voices all the time are in the minority!!

I said “yes all the time” but I really mean “yes, most the time”.

I’m sza and I hear voices every day, for the most part.
When they scream, it really bothers me; it sounds like my brother is screaming at me :frowning:

I hear whispers/music almost constantly. But as far as voices that say things I can hear and understand, it’s a lot less often.

When I’m not on meds, I hear mumbling voices and music continuously, non stop. I also get visual hallucinations. When I’m on meds, and one of them is an injectable, I only have audible hallucinations and very infrequently. I’m sza.

I mainly get visual hallucinations but I have had auditory hallucinations from time to time.
Risperidone pretty much controls everything.

I said “sometimes” (which is true) but I’m also technically not DX’d as anything so like… grain of salt it, I suppose.

Hear the voices whenever it’s silent, or I’m listening to repetitive sounds. When there’s talking or non-repetitive music then it’s mostly drowned out.

Yes, this! This is me. I’ve never heard someone else describe it before.

Describe repetitive sounds::: hammer, dog barking, phone ringing, car alarm, radio static ?

Before my med started working, I heard voices from external sources, e.g. space heaters. Now, no voices most of the time. Internal music, but not bothersome.

All of those. Also, a big one for me would be hearing voices in the wind, usually a young woman’s voice.
