See psychiatrist: While lack of sleep/insomnia can cause the brain to do funny things, you need to be evaluated by a psychiatrist to ensure the voices are sleep deprecation derived and not from early schizophrenia.

See below: Hearing voices is not normal, period. This is no part of asthma. Get in control of your sleep - sleeping pills etc, if that doesn't help, see a mental health professional.
