Hi, Good that you are seeking help over this portal. Severe depression may at times push an individual towards Brief Psychotic Episode whereby the patient experiences hallucinations (vague sounds talking to them), certain fixed delusions (people are plotting against them, talking about them etc.) and also suicide. These are all considered as Red Flag Symptoms and should be catered to asap to avoid severe long term consequences. It is manageable very well provided you act fast.
Next Steps
It is advisable to approach a psychiatrist asap and may require hospital admission.
Health Tips
Informing a close family member about your symptoms will help you built up a support system.
