Hearing the Voice has created this website to share information and perspectives on hearing voices. It has been under way for more than two years and o lot of thought and care has gone in to it. They've consulted with people who hear voices and their friends, families and other supporters to try and make it accessible and relevant. There are ideas for coping, information about medication, personal stories, thoughts on how to talk about voices and research into the history of voice hearing as well as stuff on spirituality and cultural and social context. They are happy to get feedback as well as the website is a work in progress so at the bottom of the website there is a link to tell them what you think. Go to understandingvoices.com and have a look around! #understandingvoices #hearingvoices #livingwithvoices #medication #copingwithvoices #spirituality #historyofvoicehearing #perspectives #reflections #voicehearing #selfhelp #talkaboutvoices

Another exciting thing we are doing in September #london #hearingvoices #livingwithvoices #event #compassion
An introduction to working with voices - a community development approach to normalising experiences such as hearing or sensing things others don't whether you understand it as sensitivity, spiritual experiences, ancestors, hallucinations or other. #hearingvoices #workingwithvoices #compassionforvoices #compassionatecommunities #hebdenbridge #workshop
Upcoming 2-day workshop about findings ways to talk with voices you or somebody else hear. Destigmatising and demystifying hearing voices and similar experiences by developing more understanding and compassion. When we feel overwhelmed and scared of an experience it can be really helpful if the community around us doesn't panic but is up for helping us find ways forward. #hearingvoices #livingwithvoices #hebdenbridge #workshop #mentalhealth #compassion #communication
