Only One In 10 People Hearing Voices Over Their Lifetime May Experience Delusions, Study Suggests.

The Wilmington (DE) News Journal reported that “hearing voices can be a symptom of a mental health disorder, such as schizophrenia.” However, a study “published in the Journal of the American Medical Association that surveyed more than 31,000 people on the prevalence of hearing voices over their lifetime found that only one in 10 experienced delusions.” Hearing voices may also result from trauma, the article pointed out.
