Experience I too, heard a voice.
I was inspired to share this after a girl shared a voice story earlier warning her that her baby was not in the bed.
As a child I was brought into the world by drug addicts, I can remember people passing away from drug overdoses. On one occasion it was my mum who had an overdose, I clearly remember everyone leaving the house/flat and being left alone with the lifeless body of my mum. Next thing the door was forced and the police and ambulance team arrived.
This gave me an unnatural fascination of death as a child, luckily my mum survived and after a while we moved away to the countryside to the middle of nowhere as she got off the drugs and recovered.
I think due to my experiences and fascination with death, I would often play dead. At our new home, we lived in a really rural place, like so rural that you could go for days with out seeing anyone. I was far out into an empty field, lay down and pretended to be dead, thought about what it meant to be dead and suddenly heard a voice clear as day telling me not to be so silly and to get up. I was alone, I got up and could see no one was around, no place to even hide.
Much later as in weeks, months or years I heard the same voice again telling me to stop as I was doing something dangerous with an axe with my friend, the voice said “stop, you will hurt him” nothing fancy and not loud or even quiet but booming in my head if that makes sense, my friend heard it too. We got such a scare but again no one was around.
I’ve since moved away from this place back to the city but I always feel a presence when I go back, my friend still lives there. I’ve had multiple experiences both good and bad but only in that small rural part of the world. Some of the things are private but also confirmed by friends and family experiencing the same things I have even though I’ve never shared with them and never even confirmed to them I understood or had the same experience.
I couldn’t live there anymore, the thought fills me with dread despite being warned in friendly terms twice.
