So what is thought broadcasting? Can they hear my voices in my head or can they just know what I’m thinking im confused? What do other people know that I don’t? This is very stressing and overwhelming
You think that others can understand and read your thoughts.
It’s a positive symptom and it’s part of schizophrenia.
Positive symptoms are ones you have that shouldn’t be there.
Negative syptoms are those that aren’t there but should be…
That’s the basics of it!
It drives me crazy sometimes. Especially when everything is chill and quiet. Sometimes it feels like one of them noise amplifying dinars used at sporting events is being pointed at my throat. Which isn’t true.
But no it isnt your thoughts it’s your subvocalization. Comes from trying to think while stressed. Why do you think they call white pwople honkys ? We get mad or upset and talk through our nose lol. Just don’t focus on your voice , it’s a habit you bring your attention to the sound of your voice and it’s going to get louder to you.
Everyone talks to themselves. When it feels like others are hearing you just try to relax and don’t flip. Pwople like fun at people don’t let them get to you.
It’s just the term for the feeling that others can know your thoughts. It doesn’t mean they actually know your thoughts.

Yeah its kinda a self fullfilling prophecy.
I am suffering from thought broadcasting. My solution to finding out what it is, is that we should meet. Two thought broadcasters should meet. I’m ready to meet anyone who thinks people are hearing their thoughts because I am pretty sure people can hear mine. So if you are sure too then let’s meet.

I’m in north England. Your symptoms are exactly the same as mine. I’m just feeling a little weird cause I just got this mail about anonymity or something. But are you really sure that people can hear your thoughts.
They can’t, it just feels that way because of the disease.
If this was a real thing we wouldn’t need phones, or to speak, even.
That guy who shot up Las Vegas, someone would have heard his thoughts and stopped him. But they didn’t, because that’s impossible.
Does believing something is happening make it happen? Or even just believe it can happen make it start happening to you?
The thing is with the voices is I’ll go months without dealing eith the intense stuff, I’ll hear something thst rubs me the wrong way, ill get upset and stsrt thinking aboit why and how this is happening . This opens a can of worms and I’m tormented for weeks or months afterwsrds. It’s like opening up part of your brain for it to happen and they won’t let you close it
Maybe is just a tiny subset of the population that has it. Maybe that is why it is being kept hidden.
Hi! thought broadcasting was the principal motif of one of my psychotic breaks almost a year ago.
I usually play music with people. Well in this case everyone else was inherently sadistic and wanted to hurt me. When i played music, I was communicating personal secrets to everybody (for example my e-mail passwords, etc.). And I thought that through music you can communicate absolute everything in a state of special consciousness
And there was a conspiracy of psychopats interested in my “inhability” to control my thoughts and shut up, for the sake of their pleasure.
The curious thing, when I stopped playing or listening (which I almost couldn´t stop during the break because i was addicted to listening music to hear what they knew about me) to music, then the auditory voices would come and make me miserable in other way.
