Two Fools…

Mood creation, dominance and oppression, physical presence, compulsion, addiction and paranoia, together with aspects of manic depression. All of these, according to Roy Vincent, can be included with voice hearing as the unwanted effects of spiritual intrusion. In this article he leaves out hearing voices, having described his experiences thoroughly in his e book Listening to the Silences, and concentrates on the remainder, the ‘silent intrusions’ – trying to promote understanding and ways of coping and supporting.

I have just very recently discovered that rather than being bipolar I with psychotic features to schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type and this diagnosis is the one that best describes me. I feel very alone and have for the last three and a half years when persistant aditory hallucinations, which is composed of seven different voices, the same ones every moment of my conciousness. As soon as I wake up I hear them until I sleep or try to sleep as much as I can. I feel like a freak of nature, and yet there are so many things that make a sort of sense to me. All the voices are of people in my family and two friends who have all deserted me, and one person I made up completely but he was a neighbor of mine, and I saw him walking around and would speak to him occasionally. I no longer live in that apartment, and never have seen this man again. I have terrible times with relationships with my family, I mean it's enough to make you feel suicidal. Any suggestions as I now enter into this strange but oddly comforting hallucination.
