O.K, as I've had people tell me in events of distress that they have accidently recorded their 'voices' upon their iPhone using Air Pods as they are placed into the ear canal, and are noise cancelling, as they thought that they were imagining what they were experiencing, and I asked them to zip the file but never had enough time as one of the moderators clocked me and closed down my account.

It can be a long hustle but very insightful as well, as you study what is occurring within your immediate environment externally and internally through your actual hearing of which would be your vestibular system, and pay attention to your train of thoughts, even the pre medative and pre-emptive and the in subjective or non quantifiable, as in the spectral or of the mind, in a sense it's held within the minds thought process.

The covert harassment or street theatre has less of an impact on me nowadays, as they will not mow me down in broad daylight, or hack my bank account or steel my passwords or comment identity fraud and take out a loan in my name.

I even stood in front of the motorist of which included white and dark dealers and none of them are willing enough to kill me out right.

They surveil me and I surveil them, and that's the deal.

The modern state of organized Mental Health provision is an industry which makes a revenue from the pharmaceutical companies as that's why they are in bed with them.

As in truth you can't earn that much revenue from offering a what's app group or providing CBT, as you are not selling anything to people for the rest of their natural lives.

State run provisions are a money making scheme and certainly not Kings College or the Max Planck institute, as even ENT is nothing like my local MH system.

You've invested considerable thought into how this affects you, and I can sense how burdensome it must be to hold ontothose questions. Feeling targeted or unjustly treated is draining, and when it lasts for an extended period, it can trulydeplete your energy.

I can't definitively identify the reasons behind these experiences, but I am aware that numerous individuals who encounter voices or disturbing perceptions report analogous sensations of being singled out or cornered. Living with it doesn’t make it any less genuine — it can be intimidating and lonely at times.

To me, what is most important isn’t the title or definition, but the effect it has on everyday life and the level of support aperson receives from those around them. Having environments like this, where you can express yourself freely and be received without criticism, can make situations feel somewhat less isolating

I hear you. It’s tough when the system feels like it’s only looking at you through medication and short appointments, rather than giving you the space to actually be heard. Ten minutes with a psychiatrist really isn’t enough to explain what life is like day to day.

Getting CBT even once must have shown you how much difference real talking time with someone can make. It’s a shame that therapy is so limited and treated like a short course, when what most people need is longer-term support.

You’re not alone in feeling let down by how it’s set up. Wanting more than just prescriptions is completely valid — everyone deserves proper care and the chance to work through things at a real pace.

After many years of suspecting that I maybe a genuine victim of what's referred to as organized mobbing and covert harassment campaigns within my localised living space, by way of unnatural hand gestures,(or unnatural displays of bodily movements) directed covert conversations which may contain something personal or threating to the intended recipient) as ritualistic intimidation would now be a new normal you would then have to become climatized too, as most people around you will not 'let you in on the scam or in joke' as you attempt to rationalise off what you experience upon a daily basis, as is largely regarded as symptoms of Schizophrenia or Psychosis, even though I have been attempting to break down the consistence aspects of what this so called illness is, and what it could be due to, within the external stimulus displayed to you of which is largely unavoidable.

definition of: Vexatious Behavior is (to harass, distress, annoy, tease, cause trouble, agitate, disturb or pursue issues excessively) vexatious behavior can be frivolous, persistent/repeated content or communicating in an abusive manner.

I was seeing a clear connection between the internal conversations, of my (mind) interplay engagement in the 'back and forth' between 'me' being myself talk (or the act subvocalizing to myself,) and the responses form other vocal 'voices' as I realized that they did not sound like me or display my accent, gender or even age bracket, or point of reference.

I realized that these (voices) are not my internal inner voice, as they speak to me, or through me.

The obvious comparisons to the machinations of these conversations seemed to fit this interesting definition.

Would anybody agree or have anything that seems uncannily like this generalized...

One of the main abusive strategies is to gain access to the chosen singled out victim by the use of implementing a trauma bond into the psyche of the 'voice hearer' by way of inciting an unnatural event like say, for example, strangers repeating what you say within your own head meaning via self-talk, upon an avenge day walking to the store and this will confuse and startle you by way of shock into a highly anxious state of mind, to do this repeatedly will instil a trauma bond within you by which you will be triggered into a negative emotional state by the repeated or eventually expected actions of the perp network (strangers passing you by) as they get their kicks by playing voyeuristic mind games whilst you scramble for the explanations as to why and how this is occurring within your local environment and living space, as like with sex offenders it's their given assumed right to...

I thought this a great aspect to focus on as me, myself have experienced this odd anomaly within our general experience of hearing voices, including what's described as 'thought broadcasting', during this time I have noticed changes within the levels of amplification as in one voice in conjunction with my own (as in subvocalizing to ones self) to having to try to think clearly through many voices all at once putting you off course, it's noticeable when attempting to achieve a pacific task or goal, it hinders normal methodical thought, by disruption and backbiting.
During these experiences I have noticed you may have female and male 'voices' or 'contributors' performing or commenting on various things, even though its not the act of whatever you are doing or what ever the main implied focal point would be, or if the content is negative or positive, or if you choose to converse with...

So I live in a small-medium sized town and I believe some locals know my illness without knowing who am I really am. I have this idea as when I lived that they all know that I am registered as disabled and am under mental health, as many of them are subjecting me to some kind of form of harassment via dog whistle politics and street theatre every day for the last eight years, some attempt dazzling through my house windows at times of which at night I bought some eye protection as a laser light directed at you retina can cause damage to your eye sight.

Also what happed to nondisclosure of private medical records if it's passed around the town like a social media rumour, and how are the locals and professionals (as some were known to me) acting professionally!

Has anyone else had any instances of this or ever thought that this could be the case, as it seems to be a game or ongoing...

I found came across this earlier during the day and wanted to up load a link to the page, just in case any body is interested or has been affected by the identifiable practises which are underlined in the sub text or why this post is or could prove to be relevant if experiencing any forms of communities harassment or mobbing via subtle way of provocation by the use of group gaslighting and the use of dog whistle politics, if they suspect an illegal investigation has been conducted under the false assumption of fraud, or if they naturally assume that some of their paranoia/unusual beliefs maybe the result of something else, then please read and think about the tactics employed within recent historic events.

Thank you, and here is an extract

Gaslighting and gang stalking are two different forms of manipulation and abuse. Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or group makes someone question their own sanity, memory, or perception of events. This can be done through denying facts, planting false information, or manipulating evidence. The goal of gaslighting is to make the victim doubt their own reality and trust the manipulator instead.Gang stalking, on the other hand, is a form of organized harassment in which a group of people systematically target an individual with harassment, intimidation, and abuse. This can include physical stalking, verbal harassment, and even destruction of property. The goal of gang stalking is to isolate and control the victim, and to make them feel paranoid and paranoid. While both gaslighting and gang stalking can have serious and detrimental effects on the...

During the course of last year, I was chatting to many people that experienced what they presumed was psychosis or heard voices, a few of them were in their teens or early 20s and new into this experience but managed to some how record their auditory hallucinations of which they thought was imaginary or not actually real upon placing Airpods inside their ears or in close proximity to their auditory vestibular system, and using some kind of sound recording go pro app, I miss the name of it now, with the levels turn up fall blast whilst the voices are having a great time at your expense, and being loud and obnoxious, as this would be the best time to preform this action, but don't let them become aware of it, as they were surprised to find out that it's transferred from there minds or imaginations to being audibly recordable.

Would anybody else now the name of this particular app or...

The title suggests it all, would this be a common personnel perspective amongst other VH or TI's out there upon this forum, as I was under the impression that this is one of the most obvious factors before becoming a fully flung voice-hearer or victim of clandestine harassment via a proxy or experience the uncanniness of what's described online as an explanation as to what's occurring covertly and very slyly behind the scapegoats back, the constant bidding for attention by the street theatre participants and their almost fetishist need for a response, from their veiled actions intending to cause harm or enjoy their malicious abusive aiming to receive some kind of personnel gratification from them. Whether it be from voice to skull operators or by visible participants of which you can see swarming upon the pavement or by online veiled meme-like insults.

After a time of being under the care and jurisdiction of my local NHS mental health care team and doctor of which is a state run national organization to provide free healthcare and administer the care provision of clinical mental health across the borough and is a one size fits all non negotiable choice of care or type of system you naturally casually fall into, not knowing it's a wacky hill ride into heavy drugs for psychosis, insomnia, voices and so called false beliefs, and only short ten miniate appointment with your psychiatrist to be assessed and given an opportunity to recant the off the world strange unexplainable daily ride that is life, and hoping for better outcomes to occur or for a better more real explanation as to how this has been occurring within my already screwed up life.

Over the years I have noticed a clear distinct pattern of almost actual behaviour to the nature of hearing voices, as though in real-time conversations with a person or persons.

I would love to hear from anyone who has or can relate to these observations as in a relative model.
In order to make it more digestible, I will list them as follows.

1) They (voices) use tactics to make you respond to them, as they(voices) are looking for a reaction or some kind of response, in order to form a type of repeatable trigger, the idea is to use anything they (voices) can use to get you to engage within the conversation, it could be flattery, humouring you, or mostly using invasive insults directed at you. What stands out is the need for you to feed them with your acknowledgement or attention.
2)The use of negative psychological tactics like Bait & Switch, procuring a trigger or anchoring you to...

I thought that this was a good way to sum up what ownership of our own sense of reality would be like to abbreviate if you had to.

As we hear the opinions and condemnations of the many, meaning the views of the general public as to our own predicament being that of lowly status or inactivity with contributing to the wider demographic's perceived standards of ability, or rights to live accordingly, we speak with the voices of being under the rule of the DWP and what they could inflict upon us and we would have to accommodate for that, we speak primely about our 'voices' or 'covert or overt abusers' whether it could be granted as to be real or not, as in theoretical terms it's real to us at that given moment in time, we speak with being at odds with the toxic online culture of Twitter storms and of the proceeding cancel culture which was born straight from this type of narcissism...
