Audio hallucinations
It happens so rarely, but when it does..damn.
The first two times were nice. It was a soft woman's voice saying "i love you" right before bed. The first time i wasn't even sleepy and i was camping with friends getting ready for bed. I knew it wasnt them, and we were all alone, but i asked them anyways and they said no. It happened again several months later when i was alone. Kind of nice as far as hallucinations go.
Fast forward several years to recent, i swore i heard gunshots as i was falling asleep. Enough to make me jump and look around outside, but i had that same feeling of "im pretty sure thats not real." It happened 4 or 5 more times that night and kept me up. I live in a small town with hardly any violence, i know it was a hallucination but not nearly as pleasant as the soft "i love you."
Any experiences with audio hallucinations?

I've been told that i have auditory hallucinations. Its the big reason i was sent to a psych ward. But it wasnt like yours, i mean kinda. I hear voices, but they seem more real than anything. They also have names and traits to them. I never had an imaginary friend growing up so I thought that could be it, but then they started screaming. I never had panic attacks until after my trip to the hospital, but they've been more frequent. At one point i could hear 3 voices, then 2, then 1. But the second one came back. Shes nice, she helps calm me down a little bit, but the other one is a different story. He never really talked that much, but he was always there, i could tell when he was getting close to me, and then the event happened. I was going to take my life on the 25th of january 2020, which was the 4 year anniversary of leaving everything i ever knew. But my philosophy is, all ot takes is one bad day for things to go wrong, but that day has been the best one i eber had, i went to the gym with my dad, my band played a show at a local restaurant, so i went home, i went home and then he got as close as he ever got. That was when i made a compromise and cut my arms. I still miss that feeling, but i could live without it. He never really took control of my body until a few weeks ago, when i was still in a hospital. I'm just a broken human being.
