Do deaf schizophrenic people hear voices ??



So I asked the people on the SignWriting mailing list. I was told by someone who has interpreted for schizophrenic deaf people, that some do hear voices and others SEE voices..
Thanks,

  1. no, truly deaf people who were born deaf do not hear auditory voices... http://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/news-articles/0707/07070303

  2. How crazy! I just can't imagine how people could SEE voices, that would be out of this world.
    I agree with you pboyle69, a schizophrenic person may listen to voices, but only if he were not born deaf
