I Hear Voices
For most people they don't hear voice but in the book Deadly Little Lies by Laurie Faria Stolarz, Camelia and her Aunt Alexia both have this ability to hear voices. Did you know that “up to 16 percent of mentally healthy children and teens may hear voices” in 2010 http://www.hearingvoicesnetworkanz.com/. While "one out of every three so-called "voice hearers" requires psychiatric help"- http://www.psychologytoday.com/. So if you hear voices and you think that what they are saying and are true doesn't mean that they are.
Throughout the book Camelia was getting mysterious phone calls, notes, plus she kept on hearing things in her head that she didn’t know what they meant. In addition during the book there would be these diaries by Aunt Alexia, as a child, and some of them would say how she was hearing voices. Also Aunt Alexia didn’t know what they meant either.
People can relate to this because maybe they have experienced this type of situation or they knew someone who has gone through this. If this were to happen to me or I did know someone I probably would have gone to a therapy/ tell them to go to therapy.
What I think the author was trying to tell was if you hear voices and what they are saying doesn't mean that they will always be true. So even “you’re dead” didn’t mean Camelia would have died.
If you can hear voices and you think they are true doesn’t mean that they are. So if you think you know what they mean but you really don’t, ask a friend or go talk to someone.
