TED talk by recovered schizophrenic woman:
http://www.ted.com/talks/eleanor_longden_the_voices_in_my_head.html
The woman's book: Learning from the Voices in My Head by Eleanor Longden
Internet link to Hearing Voices site: http://www.hearing-voices.org/
Interesting that I should have run across this info today, given that we were just talking about similar kinds of things. The TED talk will take about 18 minutes. Ms. Longden (who went on to take both an undergrad and a Master's in psychology) describes how the voices started, how they changed to condemning, vicious presences, and how she learned to re-incorporate them as hurt, damaged, or shamed parts of herself which needed healing.
