Voices

Tags: Yu Lee

Me and Yu Lee are on holiday in Spain. We're outside and wandering around some kind of Spanish city.

We're talking about something, when Yu Lee makes a remark about keep hearing voices in her head. I start to get a little bit worried and tell her that it's not right to hear voices, but she reassures me that it's nothing, and says that she can't hear them say anything in particular, and that it just sounds like a lot of people talking at the same time. She also tells me that she doesn't hear them all of the time, and that it comes and goes.

I suddenly have a flashback to a conversation we had earlier. Yu Lee was telling me about her work (she must have still worked at Babraham in my dream) and said that she had to do a presentation, but she had this voice in her head telling her to get some of the other employees to do it for her. She said it was stupid because she had no choice but to do it herself, and they obviously wouldn't do her work for her.

I remind Yu Lee that she'd told me this, and she still says that it's harmless.

"Do you know what they call it when you have voices in your head Yu Lee?" I ask her getting more and more anxious.

"I know" she replies, but I interject:

"Schizophrenia!"

I am starting to get upset now and keep on having a go at her.

"It's okay at the moment while you can't hear exactly what they're saying, but you've already had them giving you instructions, and what happens when they're constantly telling you 'You're shit, Yu Lee, you might as well just kill yourself'?"
