Hello,

I'm a 14 year old girl and I hear a mans voice talking to me.

He insults me and tells me to do horrific things. The scariest part is that I think about taking action to them. I try to think about positive things to throw back at him. He just shouts louder. I sometimes catch myself in a dazed state for long periods of time, or randomly shaking my head & talking to myself. I know i'm not imagining it. He's here.

The other morning I woke up to long scratch marks on my arm, that were made by me. I wasn't sleeping with anyone else and they look exactly like I ran my fingers up my left arm around 25 times. Although I can't remember doing anything of the kind.

I was just curious if these were signs of schizophrenia or any other type of psychosis?

Thanks.

Actually yes, I've much desired to explain it fully. But yes.

I'm "schizophrenic" and I've had basically paranormal things happening to me since I was young. You would never know it either if you weren't having these experiences or know someone who has, to most people we just look out of our minds.

For instance, talking to yourself, sometimes Im talking to them, and they talk back, and it's very very real, but they wouldn't know that. Actually all of the things that schizophrenics do have perfectly good explanations, it's just nobody knows whats going on with them.

I'm not saying that they aren't crazy, that's just what people are really, but not because of whats happening to them, or are seemingly talking to themselves and such things.

I actually lived with a guy that would have complete conversations with them, whoever they are, and it was real, don't get me wrong, he was human, but he was actually talking to someone, never really asked him who.

See?
