Brief Answer:
Consultation

Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.

What you are describing is very possibly an auditory hallucination. I would first visit a primary care doctor for a physical exam and basic medical workup. If this is negative, you need to visit a psychiatrist. You may need treatment with an antidepressant and an antipsychotic medication. As for your family issue, the only way to properly address this is through psychotherapy. I would seek out a licensed therapist in your area for further treatment.
