I have hallucinations both "inside" and "outside", but the voices are primarily inside and the more auditory hallucinations more sound effects or unintelligible voices, whispering, or screaming.

Seems to me most people I've met with psychosis have a combination.

I've never had a professional say "internal" ones aren't real, they're just perhaps functioning through different areas of the brain. They certainly don't feel any less real when you're experiencing them. If anything, I've often found my "internal" hallucinations more confusing and more of a blockage between me and reality.
Thanks for this!
