How can we “hear” auditory hallucinations?

787 views

What causes auditory hallucinations in the brain? For example, when you are sleep deprived, it is possible to hear things very clearly as if they were real. For example, voices of people talking, which some people with schizophrenia experience commonly in their daily lives. But of course there is no input from the ears. So what exactly is happening and how is that possible?

I have a tumor at the 7th cranial nerve and I hear maybe a hundred a day. I hear trumpets and running water. Conversations. Birds. The most reoccurring one is like a crowded bars door opening will you half block away, and many other sounds. Just crazy the things I hear.
