Hi

Thanks for your letter and sharing how you are feeling with me.

It sounds as though the voices you hear are really worrying you. Its really important that you to talk to an adult you trust about what’s happening.

You mentioned not wanting to tell mum, how would it feel to give it a try to see what she says?

Think about talking as well to a school nurse or doctor or maybe a teacher who will be able to get you support.

If you would like to talk about these options come and talk to a ChildLine counsellor anytime by phone on 0800 1111 or online in a 1-2-1 chat.

You may also want to check out some web sites that have information and advice about issues such as hearing voices www.mind.org.uk or www.rethink.org  

I hope this helps 

Take care

Sam
