Hey David ~ do you have a therapist? Are you talking about this?
If you DON'T have a therapist, I'd suggest getting one.  You need someone to talk to about this. I know it would do you some good. I've been in therapy off and on all my adult life, and it's done me a world of good!  Make the call and get one.
I don't doubt that you're miserable ~ having all those "voices" talking at the same time ~ telling you all sorts of things. That would drive me nuts!! I used to deal with that too -- but I finally shut those "voices" up. I have a visualization trick that I use. It probably sounds nuts to most people, but my shrink says it's excellent ~ and he's going to recommend it to his patients.
What I do is this: The "voices or noise" in my head -- I put faces on them so I can "see" them. There are only 2 "voices" in my head -- one is a man and one is a woman -- the woman does all the 'talking.' She sometimes talks incessantly!!!  She never shuts up!! I also have this plexiglass wall - it's clear and it's between me and the "voices." It goes up and down. When the 'voices" get to be too loud, I push this imaginary button and the wall goes UP so I can't hear them anymore. I can still SEE them, but I can't hear them. They can talk all they want, but it won't do them any good. It gives me PEACE -- now I can concentrate on whatever I want to do.
Perhaps if you can visualize, this will do you some good!! It's helped me immensely. Take your thoughts and put them behind that wall. You won't be able to hear them anymore!!!
I wish you the very best. God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee
