Iāve been wondering how others started hearing voices, did something bring it on?
My voices started just before I smoked weed (had smoked it on numerous occasions without such occurrences), I heard a voice telling me if I smoked I would die, then for the next few hours thought I was actually dying and had a feeling as if someone was looking through my eyes.
My whole head started to shake uncontrollably on the inside, as if there was a loud explosion followed with someones voice telling me not to do whatever i was about to do, which ended with them telling me that they loved me.
Then as time went on I began hearing more and more voices, as if speaking with people that were near me in my head.
It started when I was 16. I had very imaginative empathy. And it led to me having this hobby of imagining conversations in my head and trying to figure out how different minds tick. I found myself enjoying these imaginary conversations more than real life ones and then one day the characters started to come to life and actually talk to me.
I felt like this one common voice I spoke to was my best friend. I had great fun talking to him. But later on that voice grew more and more two faced of course.
I was 20 and just after failing my studies I had to live with my parents again. My father at the beginning did not accept that I ws ill and we even had a fist fight. After that the whole family didnāt accept me, and back then I also lost all of my friends. All the time I was sitting in my room and reading books. I felt really lonely and heard that my neigbours were talking about me through the radiators. After a few weeks I heard the voices in my room. They had a personality and even a nice sense of humour I didnāt feel lonely anymore. I was reading books and discussing them with the voices. One which I remembered best was Master and Margaret by Bulhakov (best book ever, I would even say the book of my life). My cat is named after one of its characters. No, itās not Behemoth - Itās Master ;D
In my country dinner is usually about 3-5 pm after the usual 1st shift. People donāt usually work here 9 to 5 but 6-2,2-10,10-6. The last meal is indded supper oh, yeah and we donāt have the usual lunch, here we call it second-breakfast, itās earlier and usually we have sandwiches for this meal.
I heared the devil when I was 16. He yelled my name behind me. Walked behind me all day and told me I would die I I do not obey. Nobody else in school or at home reacted to the voice so I told him to **** off. He didnāt. So I started drinking heavily to get peace and quiet in my head.
I heard auditory voices (outside of me, sounded like someone actually talking) from a very young age (3?) and it would just happen randomly, usually at night when I was alone. I started hearing telepathic voices (like thoughts that arenāt mine) around 8 and it was when I was very upset over something and the voice was comforting.
My voices started out being the radio dj. Later on, they were an officer. Now, I know better but sometimes still feel that public speakers are speaking just to me. If I can find enough mental muscle, I dismiss them.
Anyway, welcome to the forum, Zerach. I like the sound of your posting name. Does it mean anything special?
My voices were people I talked to ,my mind would ad things to what they actually said talking on the phone was the worst. I remember talking to my boss and ended up hanging up because the conversation became so bizarre . He kept asking what I was talking about and started to get upset. People would say things that really persecuted me or my family or say things that would build on delusions I was having. I always believed at the time that people really said those things. So I acted on what I Thought they said and ended up quiting my job because of it. Never thought I was sick and ended up getting arrested for terroristic threats because I was responding to what I thought was going on.
my voices, which are during severe episodes, are of people that I know, actually thinking at me and harassing me or keeping me up all hours of the night.
im not sure if they are actually voices or my own thoughts just gone wild.
Its very strange
I didnāt have any voices until age 22. It was a summer night of 2009. In the evening, before going to bed, for the first time since middle school when i studied the bible, i actually had my childhood bible and was reading it. I was reading the story of Abraham and his son Isaac. If you donāt know what the bible story is about it is about God commanding Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac. I read that story and went to bed. Then, in the middle of the night i woke up and heard a voice command in my head that told me to go do somethingā¦
looking back, they must have started when i was 14 in junior high. I had severe panic attacks and the voices started out as hostile thoughts in my head, but detached from me, like there was me and someone else in my head. It was only recently that I identified the main voice and it got a name - Alien. Other voices too, but they donāt have names, and Alien is the leader.
I heard my first voice when I was 3 or 4. It said āheās waiting for you in the bushesā I was terrified and ran in the house to my mom. Iāve heard that particular voice all my life. other times I hear music or radio stations. Now mostly I hear the voices in my head and its like spirit people communicating with me.
Hello Iām new to the forum. I was severely bullied last year when I started a new job. Resulting in in drug use. I suffer from ptsd because I was rapped and attacked many years ago which gave me hiv. Iāve recently adopted a child which I never thought in my wildest dreams I would be able to do but now the voices in my home seem to attack me as a person. Iām fairly quiet and reserved. I give back to my community and local charities very often. I donāt understandā¦
I was working, they had fired someone I had a crush on, made work depressing. I heard a male say; what a jerk. Then started hearing other things soon after.
I heard what I thought were people in a building outside my window talking about me maybe. Now I hear em outside my window and other places over a decade later.
