Bristol Hearing Voices Network

Welcome to the Bristol Hearing Voices Network website

The aim of BHVN is to promote positive explanations of voice hearing, intrusive thoughts, and other unusual experiences, and to give people a framework for developing their own ways of coping. In order to cope with their experiences people need to take control over their voices/ intrusive thoughts, and regain some power over their lives.

Please note that the self-help group is for people with personal experiences of these issues.
