   Geez, I have voices battling it out in my head over whether or not I even want kids. It frightens me to think that that might get worse if I ever do…

   I most definitely have voices in my head. And sometimes, when I’m about to fall asleep (this is going to make me sound INSANE) I jerk myself back awake saying “What? What did you say?” only I’m actually talking to a voice in my head. Now THAT is just effed up.

   those voices have been yelling at me for years. I prefer to talk to the flowers in the yard. they don’t talk back.

   I have two: the one I consider normal me (natural response) and then overthink me. Overthink me is on death row if I can ever get my hands on her.

   Yup. (I would write more than that, but the voices in my head can’t agree on what to say.)

    Uh-huh. And when I pop an Ambien, those voices get heard by my poor husband in the middle of the night. He’s actually asked me on a few occasions, “Are you on crack?” I wish.

    thewhatifgirl – Those are very legitimate concerns.

    Becky – And that’s why I love you.

    silken – You too?

    Karly – I thought that was normal. Maybe I’m not one to talk.

    Deb – Maybe you should start an official group.

    Catootes – I’m terrified that mine would. Like, “Why do you ignore us all the time?”

    jess – Only two is good, though.

    SWMama – Teehee.

    Miss Johnson – I can’t believe I forgot her!

    Melissa – Is it bad or good that the padded cell sounds nice?

    Mimi – Note to self: Do not try Ambien.

    So many voices in my head ALL the time – and the worst part is that they all seem so important I will start down the road to do one thing that I am thinking about and then another voice decides to speak louder than the first and I find myself sidetracked onto something else.

    Needless to say, I spend A LOT of time jumping from one thing to the next and NOTHING ever seems to get completely done.

    I’m not “registering” to win the breast-pump; but, just wanted to say this is very cool.

    Let’s try to get together for a play date soon! Well, the kids’ together for a play date — not us (lol), but hopefully we can visit and catch-up a little while they play.

    Yes. I have the voices, too. You articulated what if feels like so well! I’m there with you. And me. And me, too.

    I have voices, too. I am not sure if it comes from stress, but I can’t get rid of them. the more i want to get rid of them the more I end up thinking about them / hearing them. the weird thing is that those voices worry about things that I truly don’t think/feel that way.
