Voice-hearers: What are your priorities for research into the other experiences and changes that accompany voices?
Many people who hear voices say that they sometimes experience other changes at the same time. These can include seeing visions, receiving special messages, synchronicities, physical sensations, and changes in thinking. We are interested in learning more about these experiences. If you hear voices, self-define as a voice-hearer, or have experienced things that are similar we invite you to help us identify the key priorities for future research.
