Basically over a number of months i have heard things. For example i once heard someone screaming my name and i turned around and no one was there then another time I heard bells not weddig bells but like big bells like in a tower and then another time I heard whispering but it was too faint to make it out and I was by myself.

Am I crazy or am i just imagining things, I'm really scared and it is so real the way these things sound.

HELP!!!!!

When do you hear these voices? at night before you go to bed or just anytime of day?
If its a night its normal to hear voices and ringing noises when you are close to falling asleep I suffer from sleep paralysis and its very common to hear and see things while in rem sleep. Now if your hearing them during they day at any given time it could be your imagination or maybe you should go talk to someone about them I would


Ya i figured it was at night. Its completely normal its called Hypnagogic hallucination wikipedia Hypnagogia its very common its nothing to worry about its not ghost I used to be afraid to tell people that I was going thru sleep paralysis (before I knew thats what it was called) but i researched it and found out how common it was and that I wasn't crazy look it up it may help ya.

Is this one of those false questions that people ask just because they're bored? This sounds insane.

There ARE certain mental illnesses (such as skitsofrenia) that can give you hallucinations, make you belive someone is talking to you when there is no one in the room, make you hear things, or even have visions or flashbacks of certian events.

Overtiredness can also lead to this.
Have you been getting a good amount of sleep lately?
Also, [sereiously]...are you doing (done) any drugs? Consider that. It may sound obvious, but some people forget or refuse to think about that. Drugs have an amazing impact on your brain. It can make you go all loopy - which is what I'd call this syndrom your having.

Bottom line: see a doctor.

Do you belive in ghosts or spirits? If so, consider who or what is in your house making these noises. [Scary thought.] Take time to pause - think about what the noise was and think, "Oh, it's just the hampster." Or, "Oh, maybe mom's home already."

You might not be as insane as you think you are. ;]

It could be a bunch of things. It's worth talking to a professional.

The whispering may simply be you're hearing a soft sound. We tend to interpret things we can't entirely hear well as human language.

(I've heard what sounded like low, demonic chanting, then realized it was the sump pump in action. If feels spooky, but there was nothing to it.)

The screaming your name I don't know.

The bells could have been real. Echoing from somewhere, or from a nearby dwelling (watching TV or something).

If they happen while you're falling asleep, they are the beginnings of dreams.

But set your mind at ease and get an answer from someone who can actually help you.

There may be a biological explanation.

You don't say how old you are, or if there is any family history of mental illness. Some mental illnesses are age relevant and have a genetic predisposition.
While some illnesses like schizophrenia can involve altered perceptions (like hearing voices), these more often than not tend to create delusions of control, or delusions of persecution. That is, they command you to do things or talk badly about you. You don't seem to be experiencing these symptoms.
Since your voices/sounds tend to happen as you are about to sleep, they are probably connected to you altered conscious state, rather than to a defined illness.
However, if you are still worried, talk to your doctor, as the stress and fear you are experiencing will probably only make things worse.

You have to be imagining things..your letting your mind own you when it should be the other way around. I have heard strange noises before and tried convincing myself it was a whisper, but in reality your mind is playing tricks on you. If you hear a a soft distant sound, your brain is automatically telling you its a whisper and trying to make out what it is.

Option two, go see a doctor!

Sometimes when we are stressed or under pressure, we can 'imagine' things, which at the time, we believe are true. I have thought i have heard things in the past, but am a big beliver in logic, and i i cannot find a logical solution, then i tell myself that i have imagined it.
If it is regular, then keep a note of days and times and see if there is any connection - see your doctor if you are really worried - it is probably nothing to worry about
GoodLuck

If you've ever done any hard drugs (ecstasy, cocaine, magic mushrooms, DXM, LSD), then they can have residual effects on you for months afterwards, making you hallucinate and experience other strange phenomena. If you haven't done any drugs or suffered any head injuries recently, then you might be having a psychotic episode. In any case, talk to a doctor.

Go back to sleep.

The voices and bells will seem normal again then.

It only matters in the mundane world if you start to lose track of which are just dream voices and which are physical voices. Just remember to distinguish.... ok?

Yeah... go ahead and talk to someone. I have seen and heard things, to, though. It runs in the family so, it can be either way. But, talk to someone that understands that experiencing the paranormal is a possibility

You most likely have some mental disorder that can be controlled with medication. If you are taking medication check the effects with your docter. Some medications can make you see and/or hear things
