That’s weird. I have heard my moms voice only a couple of times. But doubt it was really her.
I find it strange yours sound demonic. I use to have a god delusion until I thought maybe I’m telepathic. Then I started hearing voices of friends. The friends I heard the most of were my closest friends at the time. After I got rid of their voices I told them in person about of illness. And have never heard them since in 5+ years.
Why is it that if all of us suffer this voice delusion that all of us experience only negative voices. Every time I’m having a good day my internal voice will try to bring me down.
Is it any coincidence that the person whose internal voice I hear is a druggy.
I had a demonic voice once, it said something like “you can have your soul back if you make $50,000”, but it honestly sounded like a man with a voice-changer.
Was more amused than scared by it, plus I have enough of a belief in God that I feel protected from actual demons, at least in terms of voices.
I never had demonic voices. However I went through a delusion of hearing god, jesus, and the devil and they were all getting along like friends. only lasted a month or less.
Hmm. Well my voices were always audible and distracting. I had a hard time focusing on anything else when they would speak (ie driving). I guess a part of me thought they had something important or helpful to say. Eventually I realized they were just insulting and messing with me. Usually they would tell me pure lies and laugh at me.
When I first heard my voices they acted like they were helping me out. However they wouldn’t let me sleep as it was so distracting listening to voices and sleep. Eventually I was able
To get back on a regular sleep schedule but the voices turned bad at the same time.
Now I get peaceful sleep but hearing the auditory hallucinations as soon as I wake until I fall asleep
Wow! That is rough @mike23. Maybe you need to adjust your meds. I hope you find the meds that work for you. Abilify wore off after 20 years and I had no help from Latuda. Vraylar works for me just dealing with serious weight gain now. That’s the trade-off!
I eventually called my voices out on being spiritual beings. After awhile they acknowledged it. They said the reason they were harassing me was because I have so much negative energy, and because I needed to confront them without being afraid.
Now I spend time with them and we discuss spiritual topics and such. Anyone try any of this?
Mine don’t talk about anything spiritual just scapegoat me and harass me. Trying to put myself on blame for having schizophrenia and hearing an internal voice.
When I was being tormented, I always tried to tell my doctor my stories about the voices and my delusions. She always shut me down. She didn’t even want to hear about it. She would call them “merely a symptom of my illness.” No one listened to me either. That’s why I started my blog. I document my voices online. But still do not get alot of feedback on it. I agree that is weird that no one wants to hear or talk about voices.
I always thought I was destined for some measure of greatness, but I’m so far behind the curve now I would gladly take being average over it.
Would love to be a proper taxpayer, and have my own family and own house paid off, rather than living in my parents’ place.
At 35 and without a legacy, becoming a Bill Gates or an Elon Musk is out of the question, but if I entrepreneur well enough I might make retirement money in 10 years.
How long have you been hearing voices @anon97859349? I could talk about voices all day. I feel like I’ve figured out a lot of my situation but much of it still baffles me.
I bring this up because it was a part of my recovery process. How many of you believe in the astral plane and that some entities can be influenced by the energy around us? In other words “like attracts like”.
I spoke with my voices and gradually learned there was a lot of negativity around me that they were reacting to.
I’m glad you take your meds. I’m curious. What is your understanding of what you are as a character inside? You seem stable. I’d like to hear that from you.
To be exact my voices appeal like a stupid, kooky AI that is meant to try to act like a person that knows somehow what to say. It’s random, irrational, often metaphor… It’s obvious.
I used to be “captive” to social castes and the words administered by religious people, but I’ve taken a sharp right from that kind of mind simply because when you measure these with logic, they mean and making nothing except a “mental word bubble.” As soon as you take measure with logic, they pop meaninglessly.
So it feels like I was being pestered by a bunch of weird rascals while as though I were parked in a big parking lot getting some work done in the care, but I drove to the other side of the big parking lot, and I can see them from far away now. The difference is amazing. I treat everyone differently. I expect what I expect out of life differently. I can control how I’m feeling much more, and these “random AI voices” are not controlling me, but they’re still acting stupid and not as much as before.
