1. Do you have separate distinct voices that talk about different things? for instance i have one male who comments on what im doing and one female who tells me to harm/kill myse lf.

2. since you started hearing voices have more cropped up? eg for the first year of hearing voices i only heard the one voice, then came the second.

3. Do you hear the voices at different times or all the time? eg. i hear mine only a couple of times a week now that im on meds that work rather than all the time like it was initially.

4. do your voices constantly chatter or do they shout or interrupt? eg. my female voice just shouts occassionally rather than chattering away.

5. where do you believe your voices come from? I personally believe mine come through some kinda intercom device, whereby they can hear my thoughts and i can hear their voices

any responses greatly appreciated..

1. I have separate and distinct Voices: the Mindreaders, the Devil and the Kill Voice. The Mindreaders tell me about what the Spies are doing, the Devil just tells me I'm useless, will never succeed etc (I'm not religious by the way) and the Kill Voice....tells me to kill people

2. If I can remember back to when I was 14 and started hearing Voices, They were always multiple, but They changed over time

3. I hear Voices several times a day, most of the time They come and go briefly, but sometimes I get severe exacerbations when They all shout at me constantly

4. Sometimes They chatter in the background, especially when I'm walking outside or on the underground (so I often listen to music when I'm doing these things), but often They interrupt

5. I believe that I was cursed at birth and They come from the Higher Powers

Hope that helps
