Yeah I see him. And I’ve asked most of my voices if they’re dead or ghosts because my mom sometimes think they are but they say they aren’t. my visual hallucinations are people, animals, demons, shadows, bugs, and things moving that aren’t moving like walls or the floor so Ryan isn’t the only thing I see.
there is a certain amount of discipline and training you can do to your brain at a young age,
that’s why young people can learn almost anything, and you have not fully developed yet.
I would suggest a program of music therapy through an occupational therapist.
You can actually build pathways that would help you clear your mind, focus more, and
not allow your mind to break into visions that aren’t real.
You also need to sleep. A lot at your age. You need to not isolate, or veg.
You should never do pot, or other drugs.
I go to be around midnight- 1:00, I wake up for or five times a night, I isolate from everyone but some family members, and I used to smoke pot everyday multiple times a day but stopped because it was making me worse. I got into it because I was around a lot of friends who did it when I still had a lot of friends, but now I don’t talk to them because I don’t talk to anyone that used to be my friend. Haven’t smoked in months. I’ll try to work on the sleep because I have purple circles under my eyes, and I’ll try to work on the isolation because my mom wants me to too.
yeah, I take melatonin for sleep, but I know it’s a problem for a lot of us.
I like your art…do you do it in school too?
I take trazodone. Still have trouble sleeping. Thank you, I used to take art, that’s where Anne showed up. She’s my best friend and nicest hallucination.
I never found art and writing hurt me in any way, but I don’t spend too much time on it,
maybe an hour or two for art a day, and another hour for writing.
I need to day dream too, to be able to produce.
I know a lot of young people are into Spoken Word,
it’s very moving.
I don’t have hallucinations but if I did I would like them to be good-looking.
Really good advice @Daze.
@redanne Are you attending school or are you being home schooled?
Not all of mine are good looking. But I prefer the good looking ones too.
We don’t know yet I’m not in school right now because I’ve been changing medicines and I’m about to go to a different school but I’m not like the normal student. I’m technically gifted but I need to be in special classes because I can’t deal with hallway noise or classroom noise it’s too over whelming and I have trouble focusing even if I could handle the noise so all the people would make me unable to focus.
Oh, I see. Well I hope you find a school that you feel comfortable in and that meets your needs.
