It started when i was real young., i dont remember maybe i always had it. my problem is i hear voices, all the time sometime its echos some times its people i know sometimes i dont know who it is. i havent told anybody in a long time.i go days without sleep and i cant hold a relationship. i have a daughter, she seems to be ok. my doc has me on sleeping pills for insomnia but he doesnt know about my problem. i dont drink alcohal and i havnt in years .Im afraid i will loose control. i know real from not real and they arnt telling me to hurt anyone. its like a radio in my head that i cant turn off. i tried smoking pot and taking seditives but they either didnt work or i couldnt function. i dont want anyone to know about this in my family. i just want to know if anyone else has it and what it is

you might have some form of mental illness or it might be a neurological/physical problem. you might want to see a neurologist or a psychiatrist.

whatever you decide to do though, you shouldn't be ashamed of your problem. there is nothing to be ashamed of.

is it just your contience your hearing because i hear that? Is it usually after you do something you feel bad or guilty about? If so it is normal.If not you should'nt be ashamed you should seek medical help.Don't be afraid you could benefit from it.

You might be schizofranic its not something you should hide from your family they would only help you in the long run try talking to your doctor about it and maybe there is medication you can take also pot would be a bad idea becaues it causes shizofrania in some people. Good luck

"is it just your contience your hearing because i hear that? Is it usually after you do something you feel bad or guilty about? If so it is normal."

If you are actually HEARING voices instead of just debating yourself internally, that is most definitely NOT normal.

However, hearing voices is a known problem. It isn't normal, but it isn't something to be very worried about. See a neurologist about it.

If you hear people you knows' voices in your head when you are around them... Ever thought of Psychic abilities? I can feel peoples' emotions all the time and can tell when things are about to go wrong...

i dont know if u should starting believing the voices, if u are finding it hard to sleep due to voices, oyu coudl try a radio on as you try to go to sleep? maybe you coudl drown them out, i must a few years ago i was hearing voices i also knew the difference between reality and not reality, they have gone now they past, it could be caused by stress, i had a lot of stress due to "nasty" ppl, if it persists, i would recommend speaching to a doc

*ignore the name i have, was for other thread. :)

There is a medical term for what you have. I can't remember the name though. There's nothing wrong with you. Tell your doctor, it is a common thing.

Assuming from you're story that it IS the truth. It sounds like schizophrenia. It's not what you'd say normal, but it's known, so that's definitely a plus. You can get treated and it would work - the medications they put you on....or you could deal with it like John Nash in "A Beautiful Mind."
