Hello... Thanks for your query. Talking to self and hearing voices that others do not are referred to as auditory hallucinations and hallucinatory behavior. These are symptoms of psychotic illness. Effective antipsychotics are available to deal with the condition. I would suggest a thorough psychiatric evaluation followed by appropriate antipsychotics for management. Sedatives can be prescribed for sleep difficulty. Regards Chat Doctor.
