Hearing voices but do not see anyone. Reason?
human
I m going to make this short and understandable, hopefully... Basically I can hear voices but not see anyone. I guess I would kinda qualify my other personality as a part of it, her name is Mandy, and she won t leave me alone. I don t know what to do and it s honestly scaring me. Hopefully this was easy to understand...

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.You have mentioned two things here - about hearing voices and about your 'other personality' called Mandy. These symptoms are likely to be due to a psychotic illness. If you are hearing "mental voices" or having imaginary mental conversations or feel that you have an "alter" personality, then this could be indicative of a dissociative identity disorder (commonly known as multiple personality disorder).A detailed history and a proper psychological assessment is necessary to ascertain the correct diagnosis. So, I would advise you to see a psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation and further treatment.Wish you all the best.Regards,Dr. Jonas SundarakumarConsultant Psychiatrist
