A member asked:
Does hearing voice always means schizophrenia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nothing is 100%: Auditory hallucinations are a possible symptom of schizophrenia, but there are people diagnosed with that condition who do not hear voices and it is possible to hear voices and not be schizophrenic. The content of the messages is very important. If it's not troubling, that's good. Certain brain trauma or neurological disorders can cause similar symptoms. A neuropsychologist can dx. Best wishes.
