Does anyone ever have an audio hallucination of their name being called out? (probably by a familiar voice)
Like you can just about tell it's in your head and not a real sound, but at the same time, it seemed to come out of nowhere, not from a stream of related thoughts.
I can't recall it happening anytime recently but more when I was younger.
- lampshades 4y agoMy name is a common word in English and I hear it all the time. Maybe some of them are hallucinations, I have no idea. Slight tangent: are you “the” Tycho?
- Tycho 4y agoNo, I am not.
- cgjohn 4y agoThere's a Justin Timberlake song which contains a subtle sound that sounds exactly like my mom calling me from downstairs, but in a way I can't quite tell whether it's true or imagined. Decades later I know it is just part of the song, but hearing it still leaves me stopped in my tracks wondering whether I was just called.
- qingdao99 4y agoYep, I have the same thing in a song. Every time I hear it, I think it's a specific person calling for me.
- stumblindrunk 4y agoYes, I have had it happen very clearly a few times. It’s always my father’s voice. I’ve also heard a snare drum once and a shopping cart crash once; both were so clear, and so clearly hallucinations, that they’ve stuck with me for decades.
- veqz 4y agoMy mother calls for me every time during the guitar solo of Guns N' Roses' Sweet Child O' Mine. Reminds me of my childhood memories playing video games in the basement, and always makes me smile. Love that song :)
- throwawayvoz 4y agoI have auditory hallucinations. I need silence with earplugs and noise cancelling headphones. I can have subvocal thoughts back and forth with the voices. Sometimes they say my name. Usually it's to get my attention.
- x86_64Ubuntu 4y agoFor a few years, I would hear my mom call my name the second before I drifted off to sleep.
- jemmyw 4y agoYes, very loudly and clearly sometimes. It has been pretty scary in the past, it had always been on the edge of sounding real. Once or twice a week.
