hearing voices for the 1st time

[slayerm1]

this is my 1st post

it has never happend before but about a month ago just before i feel asleep
someone started shouting at me to shut up, a mans voice very angry
and then about a week later a man or a woman laughing (i couldnt work it out)
it sounded as though it was in my head but from the outside if you know what i mean? it was tottally unexpected and i was shook up

i havnt had it since.

im going through a tough time a the moment psyically and mentally and its all starting to pile up and i cant handle it
and now im even more worried because im hearing voices
what could this be? iv been waiting for my psyk to arrange an appointment and im not sure wether to mention it or not

Hello and Welcome

The theory is that: pathways in the mind crossover and I think, when I hear voices, i'm hearing my own thoughts

I take medication to control it

Do mention it to your psych. It could be just a reaction to the stress. When I'm under a great deal of stress I get sleep paralysis complete with hallucinations and I have to tell myself that they're not real. I talked about it with my GP and with my consultant and they reassured me that it's nothing really to worry about.

Keep posting and welcome.
