ok so for what feels like froever ive heard things in my head. i know theyre not my voice. i can still think in my head and can tell when its me but a lot of the time its not. i cant always understand what theyre saying but i find it really hard to focus on what people (real life people) are saying to me as theres so much wizzin round my head too. they dont tell me to do things, they mainly tell me im doing things wrong or they say words over and over again...bit like when u get a song stuck in ur head... but its with like one word and i know its not me saying it in my mind. im bi polar and a recovering anorexic and substance abuser. im a healthy weight and dont drink,smoke or do drugs most of the time. im not depressed anymore and i no longer self-harm. been on countless meds but i couldnt cope knowing that theyd been tested on animals so i jacked that all in. i find this really embarrasing as i know its not normal and not really the good kind of not normal... love and peace
this does sound like it could (i stress COULD) be some form of brain damage. if you are bi polar, that is classified, as being a "mental illness." i too am "mentally ill" (post-tramatic stress) however, i have had a complete neurological evaluation that does show the brain damage from the cat, mri and, pett scans. there might be some meds, to help you control the voices in your head. i would say, get a neurological evaluation, to find out what is going on inside your skull. one word of warning though! if you are under the care of a psychiatrist, i for warn you now, that psychiatry as a whole, are fearfull and jealous of neurology. there are a few (and i stress the word FEW) psychiatrists, who will refer you to a neurologist without a second thought. these type of psychiatrists, are the honest ones' who really do want to help people... THEY ARE A GOD SEND! there are way, way too many psychiatrists out there, who are more concern, with keeping the money coming in then with helping people. i truly do hope that, you are able to help for yourself and, achieve some peace in your life. i wish you the best of luck in that quest.
