It might be because you’ve had too much coffee. People who drink four or more cups of coffee per day are three times more prone to hallucinatory experiences like hearing voices. Mega doses of caffeine trigge surges in a hormone linked to seeing and hearing things that are not there.

Other possible reasons are: Infections like encephalitis and meningitis, and high fevers.

Intense stress, as you might have after going through something traumatic.

Hearing loss.

Schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, Lewy Body dementia, Parkinson's disease, and other underlying health issues.

If you hear voices or see things that aren't there, call your doctor right away.
