Now I've been back in T for about a year and a half with the same T as before and officially my dx is PTSD. I don't like labels and neither does he, but I guess this keeps my insurance company satisfied.
I mentioned to T last week that I have this constant screaming in head. He was very interested in this, which kind of freaked me out, so I clammed up about it. I didn't tell him I also have this voice that calls me names and yells at me when I do something I think is wrong or stupid or embarrassing. I've had this for as long as I can remember. I can't explain why, but it feels like both voices are female, and the screamer is quite young. I don't feel like these voices ever "take over" or that I lose control or lose time, although I did experience those sorts of things when I was younger.
So what's the deal with this? Does anyone else have this? I tried googling and only found lots of stuff about schizophrenia, and I do not have that. As comfortable as I am with T, this is really pretty frightening and embarrassing for me to talk to him about, because it sounds crazy even to me, now that I type it out.

I have had and still have this happening sometimes..
with in me my treatment providers called it many things...
flashbacks
auditory hallucinations
delusional thinking
psychosis
DID
and many other medical and mental health issues that share these same symptoms...
what its called within me depends upon other accompanying symptoms.
the best way for you to figure out what this is with in you is talk with your treatment providers. they will be able to rule in and out all the different medical and mental health problems that share these same symptoms and finally tell you what it is within you and how to treat it.
