Something’s not right

voices

voices

Hi all,

I came across this forum while scouring the Internet (as you do) in the hope of finding answers to this question.

So I've heard that it's normal to hear voices inside your head but not outside... that is, it's only if you hear voices outside your head then you should be concerned. Voices inside your head that belong to 'people' that you can actually see if you step back from the outside world and you're body, are fine/good/normal.

The thing that confuses me a little is that when I mentioned 'people inside your head' to a doctor in Emergency (he was anathestist) he assumed that I meant thoughts. These are not thoughts though, I mean, I know what my thoughts are(!) I think them, I don't hear them and I definately don't see people telling them to me. Is that weird.

Sorry, perhaps this makes no sense at all. A whole of things have gotten seriously out of control lately and I'm trying to work out what's safe to say to people about it and what's not. 😕

Re: voices

I'm writing an essay right now and it's due in tonight, so this will be a brief reply. But.... alcohol withdrawal can give you symptoms of psychosis- and can make you hear voices.
I do hope you're okay and please do stay in contact with health professionals- if you find the right one, they can help you. 😊
