"persecutory voices"
My CPN asked me today if I had been experiencing any "persecutory voices" recently. I didn't realise I ever had. I hear people that warn me about things that might happen, but the people aren't out to get me. The opposite, in fact. They're protective.
I have two issues. One is them being referred to as "voices" but cpn insists they are. Voices makes them sound like they're just voices with no substance behind them. I've never seen them, but they do exist. Maybe the new cpn will know what I mean.
Second issue is that they are not persecutory. They don't threaten me. They warn me. How is that persecutory? I get scared sometimes, but not of them. Sometimes they make me question my judgement, but that's my issue not theirs.
I'm posting this in here, though I'm not sure it's mental health related in my case. It's just that I know other people experience what my cpn was talking about and I wonder if you can shed any light on what he's talking about. I'm not ever seeing him again now, though could potentially contact him for clarification through my new cpn.
