Three possibilities depending on what the voices in your head are saying
- If they are random useless sayings: ignore them (see a doc)
- If they are good ideas : write them down
- If they tell you to do anything harmful: go see a doctor immediately
It's healthy to talk with your self in your head... like playing devils advocate and viewing the same problem/idea in different perspectives... but if it's unintentional, might be something else. Wish you best of luck.
