Hearing voices in my head?
Basically what you're going through is self-doubt, and apparently (from what I know of "taunting voices in your head"), you might have (and yes, still might have) schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is a brain disease that interferes with normal brain functioning. It causes affected people to exhibit odd and often highly irrational or disorganized behavior. Because the brain is the organ in the body where thinking, feeling and understanding of the world takes place (where consciousness exists), a brain disease like schizophrenia alters thinking, feeling, understanding and consciousness itself in affected persons, changing their lives for the worse. Schizophrenia symptoms include difficulty thinking coherently, interacting with others normally, carrying out responsibilities and expressing emotions appropriately. Even simple everyday tasks like personal hygiene can become unmanageable and neglected. I've learned that it also causes alter egos or voices, often taunting and criticizing everyday actions. Perhaps that is what it was, or still is?
Why do I keep hearing voices in my head?
Every day throughout the day I have a voice in my head that I know is me (but doesn't sound like me), it runs through things that I'm thinking about/need to do etc. for example ill see something and think that it's strange and the voice in my head will start telling me why it's strange or what's strange about what I'm seeing. Then I'll sometimes have a conversation with this voice, not always speaking out lout (usually I do that when I'm alone, in the car for example). That's not the thing that's bothering me the most though, I also hear other voices, males and females. These voices I usually hear at night, sometimes I hear them through the day but its usually when I'm completely alone. These other voices, I can't usually understand what they are saying, it's usually very high pitched and very fast. Kinda like when you used to rewind or fast forward an old cassette. I can distinctly tell the difference between the man and the woman though. Sometimes I pick up on individual words that they are saying, and sometimes I hear them together, having a conversation but again it's still very fast and I can't understand much. I've come to try and get some answers from you guys on hear because just now I heard the man and the woman talking and I distinctly heard the man say "he's listening to us" ... It totally creeped me out. Usually the daytime voice doesn't bother me at all, sometimes it can be a bit annoying and can cause me lose concentration on what I'm doing. But like I say the man and the woman are the ones I don't want to hear and that have totally just given me the creeps. Whilst I know your not all doctors on here I'd love to hear your opinions and any experiences that you have had with similar voices. Oh and also, I know this sounds totally crazy.
I am hearing voices inside my head?
Hearing voices can have many causes - and yes, one of them is schizophrenia. If the voices start telling you to do bad things, then you MUST see a doctor right away. However, what you experienced the other day might have just been a dream. It does sound as if you have a bit of anxiety. Can you take a class in Yoga? That might help. Do tell your mom about your concerns. Even if she doesn't take you seriously now, the conversation will get her started thinking about things and if you keep expressing your feelings, hopefully she will eventually understand. In the meantime, you can talk to you school counselor or your doctor. Good luck.
Why do I keep hearing voices in my head?
I'm 15 years old and I keep hearing voices in my head. They don't sound like me. They tell me to hurt myself or others. Sometimes I have conversions with the voices and it always ends up with them yelling at me that I'm worthless and don't deserve to live and all these other things. I try to stop the voices but I can't. They stop a couple months ago and then all of a sudden they came back like a week ago. I just want them stop.
Hear voices in my head before sleeping?
I'm just wondering it this is reasonably normal, or very bad. I have been having a very very hard time sleeping. Sometimes I can't sleep at all the whole night. In the last 72 hours I slept maybe 5 hours total. Anyways, I know that's not normal, but I'm trying to work on it. The question is, does anyone else hear voices when they're trying to fall asleep? It's not like I actually think someone in the room is talking (and it doesnt 'sound like that) it's more like the thoughts that are always going in my head belong to someone else now. Not someone talking to me, it's just kind of like I'm hearing bits from a movie or someone else's conversation. If I take an ativan before bed, that is when it ususally happens. I'm totally fine during the day (except for being damn tired from not sleeping well). Is this a normal hypnogogic hallucination? The voices don't talk to me or anything, they're just kind of random. I tried to write some down last night, but I was pretty out of it: Jim go see Daddy. There you go (don't know anyone named Jim) - someone suggests that - Cainan? Cainan? or Conan? (someone trying to pronounce someone's name) - have a theme? have a theme? have a theme? - pertaining to your balls (haha dunno) - that was my contestant first (Know it doesn't make sense) - Jerome something - hold your poultry (wtf?) - danciest robots left in the fort left field your honour (getting crazier) - also was kind of hearing a buch of songs that don't exist. - also ton more phrases but I stopped writing them down because I was super out of it. Again, it's not like I'm HEARING people say this. It's more like if I was imagining a movie I'd just watched in my head....except it's not from a movie...or from anything.
I am hearing voices in head before I fall asleep?
It's your subconcious going commando. I hear the the same kind of stuff sometimes when I'm just about to fall asleep. There's always this weird moment between sleep and wakefulness. I promise you - you're not going schizophrenic. Some people are just more sensitive to their subconcious images. You honestly have control ALL the time. You just have to train your mind to blot out the really negative thoughts. All you have to do is train your subconcious to blot out those nasty thoughts. Thoughts rarely "come out of the blue." Just tell your mind that it will only have safe, relaxing thoughts. Kittens. A quiet fishing pond. You have to do this regularly, and with belief that it will work. Your subconcious mind is trying to sort out the things that you've seen that day, so paying attention to the pleasant things will really help. It won't happen overnight, like I said you have to train your subconcious. Every night, just think of something POSITIVE that happened that day; no matter how trivial it might seem to your concious mind. Don't be scared. You do not need to take anything. Just judging by your post, you are in control of your mind. Just enjoy your life. If you see something that's funny- laugh. You need to reprogram your subconscious. Be happy. Fear will just guarantee you will continue to have these distressing images. The last thought you have before you go to sleep should be a happy one. Laugh at the stuff that would have p***ed you off before. The images that you see at night are bound to change, if your attitude towards your daily life change. Hope this helps:)
Is this normal? I hear voices in my head...?
May The Peace and blessings be upon you.... I would seek refuge in The Protector from Satan the outcast if i were you! I would also listen to this for Protection. It will help if memorized, its a powerful prayer. Recite it when you wake up and before you go to sleep.....Insh'Allah this will help you, if The Lord is willing. May the protection of The Protector be showered upon you. when waking up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifIt9OujdzU before sleeping (always sleep on your right side) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIFLvzm1c9Y
