Hi dear.
I had gone through your query.
I understand your concern.
Auditary hallucination is only symptoms and need to identify underlying psychological disturbances.
Auditary hallucination is the prime symptoms of psychotic illness but one hallucination is not sufficient to make diagnosis.
For diagnosis and treatment , proper psychological evaluation required.
It is treatable and early treatment will bring faster and better recovery.
Still if you have a query then feel free to ask.
Thank you.
Take care.
