Third Person Voice/Psychosis Spectrum

Hi.  Does anyone have thoughts in third person, such as a voice in your mind, that is your own voice but addresses you as "you shouldn't have done that," (for example)?  I don't know if these third person thoughts are normal.  It is not an audio halluciantion, though, I know that. My therapist said that there is a spectrum-"normal", borderline (not the personality disorder) and psychosis.  I want to research this more, but I can't find anything about it.

I used to hear voices on the outside, like outside of my head and on the inside I would hear my own thoughts like higher self or third person. I don't know. If it makes sense. I never heard negative voices. There was a time when I was Spirit lead and would hear the holy ghost which sounded like the third person in me. Since I've been on meds I don't even hear my own thoughts and it actually bothers me. I hope this helps in some way.
