Not that I have been hearing voices...

Just curious... and thanks in advance!

I only heard a voice once and it was my mother's. I was in a terrifying situation where my life was gravely in danger and I was hiding under a pile of leaves from someone who was going to kill me. As clear as day I heard my mother's voice say, "It will be alright. Pray for your Holy Angel to protect you!"

Hearing voices inside your head is you talking to you. Positive affirmations are good. Hearing voices outside your head that aren't real is a serious a problem regardless of what they are saying.

All the time. It is your mind working properly, arranging information and returning it to you in words thru a voice. This voice never speaks.
It is not OK if the voices are being heard thru your ears, as that would be a hallucination.

Sometimes people hear voices as they drift off to sleep. This is normal, since you are going into alpha sleep which is associated with dreaming.

Most importantly you need to understand the difference between your thoughts/internal monologue, and hallucinations (which sound like they are outside your head, like you are hearing them with your ears). Hallucinations are never ok, and are a sign of something wrong (anything from a high fever, to drug use, to psychosis).

Be well advised that to get help and guidance from within is good and wise but if you hear voices it is for an alarm. There is an emergency and you need to act. Yes it can really happen .

It's OK to hear voices:
1) If the voices are your own thoughts
2) If you are religious & it is God or angels talking to you
3) If you have been traumatized as a child, so you have dissociated voices of other parts of your mind talking to you inside your mind. That is only a neurosis, not a psychotic way of thinking, & it is OK.

I dont think it's ever okay to hear voices, postive or not. Thinking sliently ...is okay. But uh.....yeah not real normal to be hearing ACTUAL voices other than your own thoughts.
