The third example is what the original poster said. The section in single quotes is a direct quotation. Please re-read the original post.

It is true that not everyone who hears voices is mentally ill. I never said that, and I don’t understand why you insist that I consider belief systems other than my own to be inferior.

Here are just a few things that might cause one to hear voices:

----- brain tumor

----- stroke

----- dementia or other diseases of the brain

----- any disease that can disrupt the chemical balance of the brain, such as kidney failure

----- schizophrenia

----- any number of other psychoses

----- any number of psychological conditions

----- sleep paralysis

----- other sleep-related problems or conditions

----- post-traumatic stress disorder

----- actual sounds in one’s environment

----- inner-ear (middle-ear?) problems causing tinnitus or similar “buzzing” sounds

----- diseases of the auditory nerves, such as an auditory nerve tumor

----- a benign neural or psychological condition of some sort

----- entity or “spirit” communication

I’m not a medical professional. If I was, I’m sure this list could be lengthened quite a bit. Given all the possible sources of unexplained sounds, I still believe that a medical doctor is best qualified to diagnose and treat the problem.

Perhaps a salt bath is a true cure for evil spirit possession – I don’t know and I don’t claim to know. But given that spirit possession is just one of many possible causes of hearing voices or sounds, I still say that it would be irresponsible for anyone on this forum to suggest a particular treatment for a problem that cannot be diagnosed via the DMT-Nexus.

If you consider this to be disrespectful of other cultures, then I suggest you examine why.
