?, do u hear actual voices or just thoughts out loud in your head that won't stop?

Internal voices that comment on everything I do.

It’s actually been beneficial is some of my life and you never know that it isn’t what is normal.

It certainly held me back for years simply because of my paranoia about a lot of things.

Either way it’s shite!

This post is very relatable for me.

What were you doing in your life when it started to happen, Mindboxxed? :thinking:

Internal and external voices. Internal (different alters of me). Invented conversations. Sometimes I hear other’s thoughts. Sometimes ( I ) loose my - self within my brain, and what I hear inside. I get lost in a trance within all the voices in my head, ( I ) sometimes break them down and catch my - self. Other times, the voices consume me to the point that it drains me. These voices have different sound, sometimes it’s different versions of myself, different tones. Other times they’re random voices that aren’t me. Externally I just hear my name being called out at random times. Times where I actually question if it was real or not.

before medication i had loud thoughts that wouldn’t stop all the time, internal voices arguing with me and fueling my paranoia some/a lot of the time, and occasional external voices calling my name or saying hey

I hear both internal and external voices. Both are scary, but thankfully my current medication quiets them down a bit and helps me to realize that they aren’t real.

you havd internal voices. they are considered hallucinations too.
