Is anyone else dealing with ‘voices in their head’ and a non-physical contact of people trying to whisper...

Is anyone else dealing with ‘voices in their head’ and a non-physical contact of people trying to whisper? I can feel a presence of people angrily yelling and threats for me to remain quiet about these things. I feel as if there are people staring. Not to mention , the things that I am trying to talk or type about become affected by these same feelings. Almost as if they are trying to force me what to say, when to say , and how to say. I voiced my concerns and everyone just talks about how this is some form of a mental disorder. There was probably a time in my life where this was explained but escapes my memory about the specific mode or action on how that occurs. So, is there a way to talk to someone and trick them into thinking they have ESP or are clairvoyant? What concerns me is the amount of sexual advances as well as the harassment that I have receiving. Hopefully, I will feel better soon. This came on sporadically and has lasted for more than two years. Also if I look at a moving film of a persons face or a photograph these voices seem to portray said people and say things in a negative way.

Hopefully this will be an interesting thread that doesn’t get hidden by all the others.

Anyone welcome to comment, even the trolls.

What you’re describing sounds incredibly distressing, and it’s understandable that you’d want to find answers beyond what others might call a "mental disorder." The experiences of hearing voices, sensing presences, feeling external control over your actions, or receiving unwanted thoughts and messages are more common than people might realize, and there are ways to approach them that focus on relief and understanding, not just labels.

These experiences can sometimes be related to conditions like **psychosis**, which involves altered perceptions of reality, or **schizoaffective disorder** if they come with mood-related symptoms. However, they don’t define who you are, and many people learn to manage similar symptoms successfully. Here are a few things to consider:

1. **Seek Professional Help with an Open Mind**: A mental health professional, especially one experienced with psychosis or sensory disturbances, can work with you to explore these experiences. They might suggest medications, but they can also offer therapies like **Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)** for psychosis, which focuses on managing and reframing these experiences.

2. **Consider Peer Support**: Many people who experience hearing voices or feeling non-physical presences find support through groups like the **Hearing Voices Network (HVN)**. HVN offers a space where people share their experiences openly, without immediate judgment or pathologizing. They emphasize understanding and personal meaning rather than assuming all such experiences are symptoms.

3. **Mindfulness and Grounding Techniques**: Practicing mindfulness can sometimes help reduce the distress of intrusive thoughts or voices by allowing you to feel more grounded in your own sense of reality. Techniques like **deep breathing, grounding exercises, and mindfulness meditation** can give you tools to cope when these sensations become overwhelming.

4. **Journal Your Experiences**: Writing about your experiences, thoughts, and feelings can sometimes create a sense of control. Journaling can also help identify patterns or triggers for these sensations. This record might also help you or a professional see trends and insights that could support your journey toward relief.

5. **Find Support from Trusted People**: If you’re able to, share these experiences with someone you trust who won’t dismiss or mock them. Even one supportive person can make a big difference. Sometimes, friends or family can help you feel grounded, or they might notice factors that make things better or worse for you.

6. **Practice Self-Compassion**: Going through this kind of experience is exhausting and confusing, and self-blame can make it feel even worse. Remind yourself that you’re doing the best you can in a challenging situation.

It’s essential to approach this with patience and kindness toward yourself. Finding the right support and techniques can take time, but there are resources and people who want to help. If you’d like, I can help you find resources or groups to connect with, or just be here to listen as you work through this.

I’m also seemingly receiving a lot of unwanted contact where I’m verbally trying to get them away from me.

I do not want to be harassed and do not want to receive medical treatment. This is like some form of forced talk therapy, which isn’t that bad. However , what pisses me off is the amount of …that’s hard to explain. But why would these voices talk about my physical looks in a negative way and actively make me think that my house was going to blow if I opened up a door?

The self compassing actually helps but when I try to journal things all I’m experiencing is someone try to actively change what I’m saying.

The obvious question here have you tried anti psychotics?

No I possibly was force fed either placebo pills while locked in my bedroom and heard the same voices then. These have been happening on and off since I was a toddler. A long time ago , I experience people playing with this device in their hands while I was smoking cannabis. However , I do not know if that is the same thing or what caused that in the first place.

That’s pretty similar to what I’ve been experiencing. This feels the same way to the daydreaming I used to looking out of the window during school time.

Dude those are just your thoughts. I heat voices constantly but I also experience my imagination with all my senses like a semiconcious virtual reality dream state. It's rad as hell. Some people just think louder and actually hear it.

You can A: ignore it
B: take drugs that dull your mind enough to quiet it down
Or C: acknowledge that you are talking to yourself and learn to control the conversation going on in your head and have a life long companion in the form of an imaginary Co pilot/copilots. It's what I do and again rad as hell. I'm never lonely and problem solving is way easier.

When I try to ignore these voices my breathing becomes tampered with. This goes to the point where I become withdrawn and silent. Once I start exhaling with my mouth open, there are words that I do not want to say being forced out my mouth. I was also in court during jury duty service where this had the ability to become a life threatening situation due to improper ways of communication.

I was walking down the street and also had these feelings like someone wanted to push me into the oncoming lane of traffic. The problem during that time I had no feelings of suicidal ideation but fear that someone was going to shoot me with a paintball.

I was also slamming my head on the ground over and over again while the same voices both enticed me to keep going. I also took a ginshu sushi knife and slice my arm . I picked up this rock in the park and also had voices talking to me about cleopatra and that I should slice my neck open. Meanwhile, I got done paying into a pig butchering or similar romance scam involving bitcoin.

The minute I stopped paying things got worse.

I took this black speckled rock and ate a sandwich while I buried that in our backyard. Reminds me of that one Reddit thread about the rock that makes you fall asleep for days at a time , etc.

My dude no one is forcing you. That's you it's all you. You control you. If it's hard not to say anything then keep you mouth closed. Breath manually consciously and intentionally. No matter how uncomfortable you are as long as you manually breathing you will live. Talk aloud in private and have an actual 2 people conversation with yourself about keeping the crazy in private and pretending to be normal around others. The other you will be much happier if your still alive and now in prison or homeless. Keep to yourself as much as possible. Get a solitary job and make friends with yourself.

Do you think this is a form of a tactile hallucination?

I played a flight simulator game and worked as a rideshare driver. The other troubling this is that I hear these houses that sound like they have been transmitting or playing sound effects like they are trying to have a forced one sided conversation with my internal monologue.

I’m also in my bedroom possibly being forced to admit to things while my breathing becomes irregular. I tried to get excersize but at the same time these voices are putting names and words in my mouth somehow.

When I tell the truth or try to tell the truth of what I’m experiencing , I receive high pitch sound effects like some sort of repellent or someone playing with a YouTube video of hz waves.

So I barricaded myself in my bedroom but luckily no one broke the electronic equipment.

In so much as your own thoughts are a hallucination. Its all just you. Nothing is being transmitted, it's not coming from houses or the world around you. It is your brain being very loud. You can choose to not act on it in public and actually come to terms with the other you in private. Both of you need to chill. It can't hurt you, it doesn't control you, you've got lots of feelings and mental pressure to do these things and not doing it is uncomfortable so just be uncomfortable until you can get to a private place and tell yourself to chill the fuck out while you deal with finding enough money to eat and sleep inside. Ride share is a pretty good one for it if you can pretend to be normal when you have passengers

I remember working for a different line of business and these same voices affected my ability to supervise along with other things that I cannot get into.

The voices never make you do anything man. Your just talking to your self and losing the argument. Stop describing scenarios and take care of yourself. Acting on your crazy will never end well

I also downloaded this fan app called bedtime fan and I can definitely hear the motor running but all I hear is like a grinding sound.

Btw, I was also in a public park and noticed another park user leaving during an organized group meeting. There was talk about voices in his head.

I also heard the same type of houses there as I hear here.

I tried to use cannabis to lessen the amount of emotional reaction towards what I was hearing but instead of anger I became dejected and depressed. However after that my anger began to pick up like I was a younger child experiencing a ‘temper tantrum’ all over again.

yes, you are not the only person who deals with this
the phenomena you're describing are not typical, but also not rare
if you make an appointment with your family doctor and describe what you're experiencing, he can point you in the right direction
you seem resistant to the idea that what you're experiencing is a mental disorder, so please feel free to think of it in different terms, if you prefer; ultimately, these are just labels
regardless of your preferred terminology, you can get help
good luck, anon

Unfortunately I probably had experience with someone who might have used this as a negative way to hide information in an unknowingly manner.

i don't see how that's relevant, unless the "someone" in question is your family doctor
and if it was, you can find another doctor; there are plenty

I typically swing towards self help and guided meditation that I have the ability to turn on and off and take pauses.

uh huh
how's that working for you?

I noticed after I found a book called ‘mindfulness’ these voices made them turn my thoughts inwardly against myself. After I downloaded called ‘insight timer’ I felt a lot better. However , there has been no explanation about the physical manifestations of someone’s else body part on mine.

I have been looking for explanations about these experiences and found a couple helpful videos on Youtube.

One was : Electronic Harassment : Voices in my mind

youtube.com/watch?v=JmE4oTXYmf4&pp=ygUhdm9pY2VzIGluIG91ciBoZWFkIGNhdGhlZHJhbCBjaXR5

and the other was one that had a interview but that one is hidden in my search for now.

uh huh
when you're done looking for explanations in self-help books and on youtube, just remember to go see your doctor
unless you think the phenomena you're experiencing will cause you to harm yourself or other people, in which case you don't need to wait for a doctor's appointment, just go to the ER and tell them you're hearing voices and you think you might harm yourself or someone else

go to the ER

I actually visited the hospital due to this very instance and when I got there I felt as if was about to experience a stroke. Days before, I locked myself in the bedroom where I heard strange sounds regarding a shooting that could have been different sound effects that made me perceive I was hearing a shooting. The voices did not stop after I left like they did in the past. Usually this happens for a short amount of time but this has been longest I have experienced this aside from the time I was admitted to the hospital as a younger child. I remember being blinded in my bedroom years after that experience and hearing a voice talk next to me as I lay on the bed suffering from a debilitating flu.

The minute I decided to look at pornography on the internet , I experienced these voices turn into almost a sexual tone that would not stop as if they are trying to either keep me calm or capitalize on the art of seduction.

The point of origin seems to change from place to place no matter if that be at a public location or in a private location such as the bedroom. I am getting so paranoid at sometimes that I try to cover myself with a blanket. However, when I cover myself with the blanket there are feelings of someone trying to whisper next to me telling me all sorts of things weather that be anger, love, sadness, or other emotions.

and that becomes very abrasive to the point where I get feelings on my skin of irritation.
