hi lanky,
I'm bipolar and I'll share my experience with you. I would have similar type thoughts when my bipolar was less in control. Some of my thoughts were suicidal, and I remember one of them kept telling me I must be a lesbian (I'm not). I wasn't hearing voices, these were just obsessional thoughts I couldn't seem to control. I found talking about them to my psychiatrist helped to get rid of them and doing some cognitive therapy when they came up. They went away very quickly for me.
I hope I have been some help. I always considered them to be related to ocd and bipolar. Janice
