In
Hearing VOICES?! COMMUNICATING With ALTERS (9:17 onwards) Chloe recounts how she never thought her so-called 'voice hearing' was unusual. She describes thinking that it was just her inner-monologue/internal thoughts. She uses air quotes here, indicating she wants her audience to assume that she doesn't have a clue what it's like to have normal inner speech (she reenforces this idea later). She says that these voices initially came across as '
background noise'. Describing
untreated AVH (by nature an intrusive experience) as inconsequential 'background noise' sets off serious bullshit alarms. She says that when she described this to a crisis team nurse, she was told that she "
needed to talk to a doctor".

....
If a CRHT nurse thinks you're hearing voices and there is no previous mention of it on your file, the issue would not have been dropped just there with the patient. All crisis teams function slightly differently in the UK,
but as crisis teams directly involve psychiatrists/doctors and regular discussion of patient cases, a CRHT mental health nurse would be obliged to highlight this. An appointment with a CRHT psychiatrist would have been scheduled for as soon as possible to find a solution. Crisis teams rarely make a correct diagnosis when certain symptoms (that can result from multiple disorders) are detected for the first time, but anti-psychotics would likely be prescribed regardless of prognosis if the psychiatrist concluded that the patient was in fact experiencing auditory verbal hallucination. AVH is understood as a psychotic symptom even when it occurs in non-pyschotic disordered patients. Chloe has never mentioned being on antipsychotics at any point, if she ever had she would certainly have mentioned it.
In her Toi interview, where she recounts things differently than in the hearing voices video, she says that she did see a psychiatrist shortly after confiding in the CRHT nurse. If any of this shit actually happened it's likely that this was a CRHT psychiatrist doing a standard assessment, whether prompted or not by this interaction with the nurse who knows. According to her, they said 'hearing voices is normal'. This is clearly Chloe-speak for a psychiatrist telling her that having INNER SPEECH is normal, because inner speech doesn't constitute AVH. Hence she was not prescribed neuroleptics.
Attempting to distance her own psychology from that of 'singlets', Chloe claims to have no idea what normal inner speech is like. Whether she meant to or not, this implies that she is constantly experiencing some degree of AVH that she communicates with through 'thinking back' or talking out loud,
as a substitute for inner speech:
"Sometimes you can sort of talk back, "think back" I guess it would be like, if you have a single personality, you don't have D.I.D or O.S.D.D, thinking to yourself.... what your actual inner monologue would be... when you can sort of communicate with yourself... I'm assuming that you can do that?"
D.I.D. does not prevent you from having inner speech, AVH does not replace inner speech. Chloe is going into overkill mode here, probably because she thinks she is cleverer than she is and that her single semester of psychology undergrad entitles her to just make shit up. It is very common for people who suffer from dissociative disorders to experience AVH, but this isn't how it fucking works. Voices heard by those who suffer from textbook D.I.D. are likely to have nothing to do with any alters, closely resembling the AVH a paranoid schizophrenic might suffer, a common incorrect diagnosis someone with legit D.I.D might receive.
I don't know where Chloe got the info from for these pop ups but they're bull. A bit of google shuffling suggests they come from unaccredited bloggers.
