I Have These Disturbing Voices In My Head That Aren't Mine, But...

[Thorp]

Not to throw any body off but is believing in the supernatural totally uncalled for, I've had good voices and voices that concerned me, once that happened I commanded the voice to leave me alone and it did and for me it goes back to GOD, I feel that all roads do and believe me I have never been one to tote a bible but I feel there is something to it.

It was as if I was allowing all the wrongs of the world to pile up until I realized there is no possible human way out and how futile and seemingly non-existent the world around me was. It is in the realization that the physical cannot be all there is that the idea of spirit made sense. I believe that if we navigate every thought with honestly and morality we can fight ourselves out of the prison that has been build for us by those who have snake blood running through their veins.

You would not be suffering and conflicted if you had truly chosen a position of moral high ground. I have personally felt the joy of coming to GOD by truly asking for guidance out of my darkness. Look at the world we live in, it is not always such a beautiful place yet it has been the choices of man that have made it this way. Once we stand together for all that is best for all that is we shall be delivered from our hardships.

Respectfully: it is a very presumptive thing to say that anyone (in this case, the OP) would not be suffering if a position of greater morality were taken. That is akin to saying I could mend my own broken leg with the power of positive thinking.

I believe I will manage my hardships through hard work, not by coming together with others in some utopian idea of society.

Where does conflict arise from if not from a place of choice, hard work certainly is a good choice, but I also feel that their are selfless choices and selfish choice and we should understand the difference, and this goes back to morality.

I personally don't believe that all voices are bases solely in some sort of chemical imbalance. And if demons do exist they prey on weaknesses in said moralities.

Conflict (I'm assuming you mean inner conflict) can arise because of an outside circumstance over which we have no control. Being assaulted was not my choice, and my inner conflict is PTSD.

There is room for all sorts of belief systems; I only objected to your implication that we are all individually capable of healing ourselves through taking some moral high ground. Some of us also need medication. Therapy. Time.

Is it the same kind of a voice that you hear when you think to yourself or read a book?

Yeah I totally get what your talking about ..I have almost the same exact thing its an inner voice ive used to just make rwnarka or thoughts of what I was feeling and evrytine I get destroyed by this voice always insults even gets loud when I shout at it in my head. I have gone through multiple choices of what it could be.. It changes my staments so I hear disgusting things..trapped inside with a bully ..mind raped. Strips my dreams my comments on things..I even try to stop..never works.. I had to be on good behavior from intrusive shit in my own sanctuary.. BULLSHIT. The one place a person truly is alone is inside their head..but I'm not.. Never...just saying ..can't really help ..I'm not sure if its schizophrenia..but it could be a subtype .I've done extensive reading but its hard to when a voice interrupts you and distorts your perception of words....thing is it could be my fault for having imagination ..so if you are prone to daydreaming then that is an indicator that you could be more likely to be a candiadtr for some type of schizophrenia..like fantasies and such. Been there.. Seen some odd shit..really made me empty behind my shell..I guess I'm sort of a schizoid or schizotypal.

I hear voices inside me and outside og me. I did a lot of research on it and i found this. The people who commented sound like they are going through the same thing. A little bit. I have been reading the bible too and i havent really found anything specific. I think maybe it is demons attacking me or me just thinking too much. What is it? Suggestions???? Any and all.

I hear good and bad voices. I hear my aunt's voice repeating "You're fat, you're ugly, you're lazy, you're stupid, and no one is EVER going to love you." when I fail at anything, or when I'm just being hard on myself. I try to lessen my self-criticism and usually it stops. I hear good voices when I need support and generally I think it's me unconsciously thinking "What would someone kind to me say right now?"

You know, I'm not sure if what you are describing is at abnormal at all. Usually when I'm dealing with negative self-talk, especially when it's just me thinking in my head, my therapist always asks whose voice I'm hearing. If I'm thinking, "I'm fat, I'm disgusting, I have absolutely no self-control, why would I think it's okay to eat that?" (I have an ed, can you tell?). My therapist will ask, is that you're voice or is it somone else's? Your dad's? Your mom's? etc. If I say something absolutely horrible in therapy, she will usually ask, "Now whose voice is that?!" I think when it comes to negative self-perceptions and negative thinking, those thoughts didn't originate from yourself, they were things done or said to you that undermined your self-confidence. So sometimes, you hear the voices of those who hurt you. I wouldn't worry about it, but it's worth mentioning to your therapist, cause its a beneficial tool in cbt (recognizing those thoughts aren't yours, and separating them from yourself and who you know you are).
