Its not necessary a sign of schizophrenia.
It can also be a sign of "spiritual" activity.Although some people might not believe in it is does not mean it doesnt exist as in the same way some people might not believe in God but He still remains in existance regardless of whether we believe or not-He is not limited by our beliefs.
First and foremost,you dont want to be "triggering" or encouraging spiritual activity as that can be dangerous.There is absolutely no need for it and could cause you more harm then good so its better not to "mess" with it.
If your young it might seem fun or whatever but there a lot of fun you can have with "real" people instead of "triggering" spiritual activity
Secondly,does anyone else here these voices and/or are they limited to your apartment?
If someone else hears them or you find that its only in your apartment you hear them but nowhere else then that is more of a chance that it could be ""paranormal" activity in which case i'd suggest to get in touch with a good church and mention what you perceive is happening and hopefully they will send out a priest to investigate
If however,you hear these voices in other places too and not limited to only your apartment then there could be a chance that this actually is a illness process.
I wouldn't be so quick though to jump at the conclusion of schizophrenia but first make sure that there isn't an organic cause causing this such as TLE,Encephalitis,Cerebral syphilis,porphyria,Central nervous system infections,Wilson's disease,Brain tumors,Lupus,Cushing's syndrome,subdural haemorrhage,Thiamine deficiency-there are other things too.
Also if you are over 45 years of age there are some other disorders that need to be investigated into also.
Only then after all possible organic causes have been ruled out look into the possibility of schizophrenia,which if by some chance it was,there are medications that can be effective for the symptoms
The only other thing i can think of is if you are abusing alcohol or drugs like some of the kids who ask questions here on this board then that could be the cause-a drug induced psychosis- and you shouldnt be surprised that abusing drugs can cause this.Im not saying that necessarily applies to you but just to anyone who does that to be aware that this can happen |
