Woken up by living loved ones calling my name.

Do not open the door or windows when you are awaken by a voice. You could let in a demon or spirit. Cleanse your home.

This has happened to my family, too.

hearing voices can be the start of mental problems.Many people experience it at some point in there life. Look after yourself more..body, mind and soul.. god bless and good luck.

this happened to me a few times, but i dont think it was ever nefarious

i think what probably brought it about was infection(s) i hv which cross the blood brain barrier .... and also, possibly medication i was taking at the time for the infection and symptom mngmnt

of course, it cld be supernatural....idk....it hasnt happened lately

is it possible you hv an infection?

are you taking any newer medicines?

it is an odd thing to experience...i heard my Mom's voice once calling me and it woke me up (yet the hearing was in my head not external) ... if i had not woken up right then i wld hv missed hving the water kept on (had to go transfer payment into my name) and this was on a friday, so i wld hv been SOL with cut off water all weekend....i arrived at the county office with just minutes to spare

so....if supernatural....definitely helpful

happened to me three times, last time @2 years ago (during the time i was receiving iv abx for the infection(s))

dont believe it is demonic or evil, op ... dont walk in fear, there is no need

btw op - all your loved ones are living

age, disease, death are illusions and cause separation...it does not hv to be this way...we make it real bc we believe it, we can choose to not believe it

It's nothing.

It's just sounds.

your mind puts it together.

good time for some meditation.

I am not sure what it is, but i have had voices in my head for almost six years now. They are not auditory, more like thoughts i do not initiate myself.

But when i am waking from sleep sometimes i do get auditory voices. The loudest sounds i have ever heard have been as i was just waking up.

Not saying that you will start going "crazy" I believe that there are living beings all around us and that they influence and communicate with us all the time. Mostly they do this unnoticed because they (good or bad) have no interest yet in being publicly known. They typically only talk and show openly when it is easily dismissed by others, like if you are labeled insane (my case) or if everyone is able to dismiss it as "just a dream" (your case).
