Hello,
I need help understanding something. My
girlfriend tells me that last year she
would hear people in her head and they
would talk to her and argue amoungst
themselves in her head. She said there
was one who would cry and get made fun of
by the mean one. The mean one would also
tell her to cut herself and she would wake
up and there would be cuts on her wrist
she didnt remember doing. Im a psychology
major and the three voices sound like the
id,superego,and ego to me. Is she
schizophrenic or just have a huge
imagination. I would also like advice on
the cutting situation too. She doesnt
hear the voices or cut anymore or so she
tells me. Thanks for any help.

She could have just been through a hard
time. Or maybe had a bad childhood. Why
don't you get her to talk to you about
things that are bothering her. I know
what it is like to cut. And to have
people in my head telling me to cut. It
is not an easy thing to go through. And
you need someone to talk to and to comfort
you. Have her tell you things and see if
that doesn't help.
