Internal voices vs intrusive thoughts

I always have internal voices. i have 3 so far: 2 female, 1 male.
they are different from intrusive thoughts.
voices have gender, age, personality etc.
they have their own distinct vocal tone & pitch. doc says that whether they come from outside or inside, they are hallucinations. they could also come from a body part or from an object.
my voices are beings who live in my head.

intrusive thoughts are quite different.
they are unpleasant images or thoughts that pop up without my will. I dont have many of them.
can you see the difference?
