I think I got the crazy

[Peoples Elmo]

I hear auditory hallucinations
Sometimes Its someone calling my name (not always the same voice)
Overtimes it's hearing footsteps or whispers, or some rustling in the leaves or bushes
I do not always realize that these sounds are not real, although now that I realize im having them sometimes after some thinking (or looking around) I realize that the sound was not really there
anyone else like me? or im I just fucking crazy

To a certain extent (a very small extent, mind you) everybody hears "voices" or imagines certain noises. There are parts of our brain that can become overactive or which have neurons that misfire. For the majority of the population this is a very rare occurrence, but it is a continuum--some people find it happening more than others.

In some cases, this can become a very real problem. If, for example, you find that it interferes with your daily life, you should probably get it checked out.

How old are you, by the way? Are there any other aspects of your life or personality that you think would be considered "strange?"

Also, do you have any history of depression?

[Peoples Elmo]

It does not happen too often (at least i don't notice it happening)
It can be very frustrating when Im alone and have no way of telling if the noise was real or not and look for whatever I heard
not a huge deal just kind of weird and scary to go through
Im 16 this has been going on for a long time, at least 2 years, maybe much longer, im not sure
I wouldnt call my self depressed but I am a lot more negative then most people

Have you been doing a lot of drugs? Specifically Speed or Coke, but also PCP or K?

[Peoples Elmo]

nothing like that
oxy and benzos and occasionally DXM
nothing else regularly

I'd be careful with that. While less serious, it's classified within the same drug group (NMDA receptor antagonists) as K and PCP. While your hallucinations may or may not be a product of this, it's definitely not going to help.

Furthermore, I'd wait to see if you feel like things are getting worse. You're still pretty young, and at this point that's a good sign as far as hallucinations go. If you feel like it's interfering in your life or the symptoms get worse, I'd get it checked out just to be safe.

Sounds like your permafried my crazy zokletian, get you some good drugs, take em and call me in the mornin. If the problem still persists become an hero.

Lol. When I'm high and trying to get to sleep I hear a guy masturbating outside my window. It turns out to be rain drops.

Just because its OTC doesnt mean it is not one of the most powerful drugs in existance.

*I personally would classify disassociates as the second most powerful drug in existance because it has the potential to be non-recreational depending on the dose e.g a "4th plateu" DXM trip or 1.2-1.5g+ is a non-recreational does which is inherently more powerful than a recreational drug because the drug is in control of you rather than a recreational situation where you are under the influence but still in control, also the sae with any other dissacociative such as N02, Ketamine or PCP. Part of the loss of control is defined by inability to distinguish reality from hallucination.

The only more powerful class of drug Delerients- These are true hallucinogens in which the intoxicated individual wavers control of oneself over to the substance, and the drug decides what is reality and what is not.

A psychadelic is a very strong and powerful drug also but the open and closed eyed visuals produced by them from the likes of LSD, Shrooms or marjuana (mild psychadelic, smoke a gram of bubbler with no tolerance and tell me your not tripping) are morphs of reality or; a reality placed ontop of reality; both individually auditory and cognitively (the same for true hallucinogens, hallucinations are not limited to visuals/auditories, but also abstractions of reality- although these hallucinations are arguably a very positive experience sometimes).

That being said i dont think occasional 4th plateu dosage will cause what you are experiencing, certainly continous use would not surprise me.

Edit: DXM peaks at 2 hours, and afterglow begins at 4 hours. if you were on DXM and took to much benzos and crashed for say a few days; the hibernation combined with a 4th plateu afterglow would cause some serously fucked up dreams.

I think the best thing to do is not worry about it, although it sounds hard. It seems like your just really tense and full of anxiety from what you think to be auditory hallucinations. Then again I'm not you, so i don't know exactly what your going through. My best advice is to try and concentrate on something else instead of the negative thought pattern such as, "Omg, did i just hear someone call my name? Am I going crazy?"

every time it happens I start thinking about it and get scared
I need to keep calm and continue what I was doing

My friend smells dead cow eww, she also hears things, started 2 months ago. Shes now diaignosed with borderline schizo.

Guity cubiculs could be right.

But still go to a doctor.

A few months ago I was hearing similar weird shit fairly often, but it kinda faded away after a while. I think this may have been happening because I wasn't really eating well and was getting very little sleep. Lots of people probably experience this in varying degree's.

It's interesting to come across a post like this one, as I was literally just about to post something very similar. Last night I could not sleep, I kept hearing conversations between people that I am familiar with, but of course they were all fast asleep, and far, far away. I hadn't consumed any mind-altering substances for a couple months, and even then, all I did was smoke a joint. I hear voices about once a week, but I hear imaginary phones, doorbells and alarms Daily.

[Leonidas]

Fuck, I get the people calling your name one too, and doors shutting.
For the most part I've learnt to deal with it and can tone it out most of the time, but when you're jacking off it freaks you out bad

[GoodbyeSoberDay]

Does your family have a history of mental disorder? Do you use illegal narcotics?

[boostinkyboo]

Sounds like you're a genuine loony. I love people who have to ask if that's normal "I'm hearing all these voices in my head, is this normal!?!?"

No it's not fucking normal you idiot. You really think everyone just hears voices and shit? Just the fact that you're asking tells me that deep down you know it's not normal, so don't look for justification for your mental state.

[SomeBum]

Are you on meth or other amps? because that's what it sounds like.

[TaxonomicalPissingContest]

I had a pretty bad depressive episode once which half-morphed into a psychosis for a while. I used to constantly hear the sound of approaching footsteps when there was nobody around, and the sound of the phone ringing when it wasn't.

Any cute romantic notions of mental illness left me at that point. When you can't even control shit like that it's no longer a laughing matter.
