So here's my little story. Feedback would be great.


First, I know this will sound far fetched, but bear with me. And no, I don't suffer from schizophrenia. These events happened to me between 8 and 9 years of age. I have no idea why, but until recently, I forgot all about them. Also, please don't assume that I'm lying because I'm not.



I grew up in Bexley, Ohio and lived there until I was 15 when I moved to New Jersey. A little while after I turned 8 I started hearing a voice in my head (again, bear with me). The voice never scared me though so I never told anybody about it. I did think it was really odd to have somebody talking in my head, but he never "sounded" malicious. For the life of me I can't remember what he called himself.

For the most part he would just talk to me about stupid things like what food I liked, who my friends were(if anything, I kind of considered him a friend), what I thought of my family, ect. The funny thing is, he never said he was an alien or anything like that, but for 2 years straight I would see metal things in the sky. Most of the time they didn't move and were just hovering there.

Then the voice just stopped talking to me. And a couple weeks after that I had no memory of any of it. Then around June of this year, I was driving to work and it all came back to me.

I know this sounds strange, but as I said, I'm not lying. Thoughts?

I don't know what feedback I could give. That just brings up more questions.

It was a decidedly male voice? Do you remember how it sounded?

Hmmm, well it's kind of hard to give an impression of his voice on a message board LOL. The voice wasn't exactly deep. Plus I only heard it in my head. It never really stated that it was a guy or girl, it was just sort of a vibe I got when we talked to eachother that it was a guy

what have the voices been saying now becuase iv had the same thing and its been calling to me for real. and iv been asked similar qestions and has told me stuff

LIAR!

Just kidding. :cool:

It was always just small talk and never anything of too much importance that we discussed. The biggest thing we talked about was how much "potential" I had for the future. Though I didn't really understand any of that. Hell, still don't.

Odd. I'd have to know all sorts of background, like your parent situation and many personal things in order to understand what could have been happening. Maybe not schizophrenia, but there are many other possibilities aside from that. Not all are bad by any means.

I would definitely warn against believing it's aliens or anything straight-up paranormal.

I know what you're thinking. It has to do with psychology. It's all in my head. It's not. I don't pretend to know what it was. I had a feeling it was some sort of alien, but other than me seeing craft, I have no proof. I'm willing to admit it could have been a number of things. But it wasn't in my head. Something talked to me for an extended period of time And the situation with my parents are fine. They've been together for 24 years, so no, it wasn't me regressing to make a friend because of my parents divorce.

Don't get upset, you've no idea what I'm on about. Though, no matter what you feel or believe you experienced, there's always the possibilty that it's "in your head". But you have to consider that some of the most amazing things are "in your head," because that's where our perception of everything ultimately lies, and everyone's reality is their own because of this. Yours is just different than the vast majority, especially in the US.

I have no idea what it was, but it's always best to at least try to rule out the possibility of some underlying, serious psychological disorder. But if it's not disrupting your life, then it may be best to just leave it as it is and enjoy the memory as a special one.

Many people have experiences like this. In my opinion, they are not mystical, magical, or special in anyway. If it's not caused by a mental 'disorder,' it's merely a part of the mass human psyche and psychology. Afterall, it's been used for centuries by many different cultures, and it often seems our brains utilize it for many purposes, such as social and personal problems and interactions (the latter which seems to be reflected in what you've said). Tribal shamans are one example of this, but they also often used chemicals from their natural surroundings to inhance their experiences. Some people can do this without external help (meditation, obviously). You've had the same experience many "prophets" have had -- you've just interpreted it differently. It wasn't angels, God, or Jesus, it was 'possibly alien'. This reflects common media influence (I'm sure you've heard that before).

It concerns me that you are so quick to be defensive. As I said, you have to consider all possibilities, including ones that aren't as fun to deal with as your possibly being contacted by extraterrestrials. I have my own experiences so I'm speaking as someone who does know where you're coming from. I find that it's often far more damaging to accept it blindly or openly as "aliens," "ghosts," "demons," or whatever else people end up interpreting it as. Right now, the popular scenario is that it's aliens contacting people telepathically. Well, maybe, but it's been different throughout the centuries. "Aliens" are the new "spirits," as it were.

The best course of action (and I wouldn't be the only person to tell you this) is to completely rid yourself of preconceptions of what it may be and never accept it at face value, or as something you want it to be (either consciously or subconsciously). Have fun with it, though, but be very careful. It's fun but can be very damaging (there are cases of people completely 'losing it' when they've delved head-first into their experiences, usually for what I've mentioned above), both mentally and physically (the latter has to do with apparent radiation sickness and idiopathic syndromes).

That is my input, and as I said, I'm coming from an educated stance, both thanks to study and personal, first-hand experience -- candidly, I've experienced the same thing you have. And, in the end, it all has to do with psychology.

I think many children (if not all) have the ability to channel energies from beyond. It is an ability that is gradually lost over time, mainly due to sociological conditioning (ie, “your imaginary friend is not real.”, “There's no such thing as ghosts.”, “Those little grey men with the big black eyes are just in your imagination.” etc.). It's like a residual connection to the afterlife, from before they were re-born.

That's my opinion anyway...

I can get overboard sometimes.
Hotherym I'm sure knows that of me. And I apologise for that.
I do agree with hotherym's point though. Evaluate your experience from all standpoints, and do not hastily reject the psycology one.
However if you saw mysterious objects in the sky, it would leave much more to have to account for here.

Yeah I have on of those. He's called my mind. He tells me what I do like and what I don't like.... yeah that might not be it. Ya know is it like a seperate entity? like could you shut it up or tell him to. Does he talk back to you? because I kinnda have that. but I can shut it up. it's just two thing arguing. it's quite entertaining. but I don't know about you. I'm just trying to fill up a post

That was more or less what I was going to say theregoesbean

I'm glad it made sense to someone else!

If I got on before you I would of said about the samething you said theregoesbean. XMindfreakX now that you mention it I have had the samething happen to me at about the same age.

Children can see / hear ghosts or things from another dimension/spiritual world until 7 years old.
My mother can hear spirits whispering on her ears, but they are friends and always help her. I think it could be a alien, if not a spirit guide, or even just a friend from another world or dimension. Just like animals (dogs, cats) sometimes they look like they are playing with something or someone that is not there.
I think you should call for your friend again and try some contact with him

Did the voice sound normal or more like a radio transmission? Was it heard as if with both ears (in your head) or in only one ear? Did you have a visualization--even if only imaginary--of what the person looked like? Did his voice have emotional inflection or was it matter-of-fact kinda monotone?

Normal.





Both.




I have a vague memory of a face, but I don't remember much details.




A bit of both.

possibly, u consciously became aware of the govenment's secret mind control experiments (like mk-ultra or project phoenix). they say that a lot of people in the north east america have been experimented on and made to do things like violence, murder, and suicide but aren't aware. then again i also agree w/ hoth about not jumping to conclusions:shrug:

If you became aware of it wouldnt the government try to get you or something?

Maybe thats why it stopped?
