TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - The problem of auditory hallucinations in combat PTSD JO - Traumatology A1 - Holmes, Douglas S. A1 - Tinnin, Louis W. SP - 1 EP - 7 VL - 1 IS - 2 N2 - In a study of 115 combat veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder, the majority (65%) reported hearing voices. These dissociative voices included command hallucinations to which the individuals responded with a feeling of automatic obedience. We describe an evolving series of psychological interventions that appear to diminish dissociation. These techniques teach the patient to objectively clarify, to conduct a dialogue with, and to negotiate with their voices.[1882 words]
