Hello everyone my name is josh and I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and manic depression and bipolar 2 disorder and adhd as well. My life for many years has been a struggle as the voices I hear in my head sound like people I’ve known in my life like my old best friend, and also a niegbor I had. I’m on medication for all my issues but living day to day has become so unbearable all I do is write music and work for doordash and sing songs. I really wish I could figure out why I hear people I’ve once talked to in my head it’s bugging me freaks me out and I’m so tired and don’t know if I’m gonna break or what… please help Big Kona is my rapper name btw real name is Joshua

Welcome to the forum @BigKona .
I’m sorry to hear you’re struggling. What meds are you on if you don’t mind me asking?
I don’t (and never have) heard voices. I’m diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. I take Abilify as my antipsychotic.
If I heard voices and they were distressing and nothing else worked, I’d have a talk with my psychiatrist about Clozapine.

Welcome @BigKona hope you enjoy your stay with us
I hear my husband muttering sometimes and I’ll ask what he said and he will say I didn’t say anything and it’s annoying but I deal with it, I also see things weird things or just flashes depending on how my meds are working at the time
At 6 I was diagnosed with ADHD at 23 I was diagnosed with schizophrenia at 25 I was diagnosed with insomnia and at 26 I was diagnosed with bipolar, PTSD, borderline personality disorder I’m now 30 as of today
At 25 I took well over 30 Tylenol extra strength it was close to 90 pills I think they almost couldn’t save me I’m grateful now
I only know it was closer to 90 because the bottle was almost full and it was a 100 bottle I stopped counting at 30

Welcome to the forum! Glad you found us
A few tips on things that confuse newbies:
Cake day is the anniversary date of when you joined.
The 1515 or other numbers at the end of peoples posts are because there’s a 15 character minimum to post. So people put 15s after until they get to the minimum characters to post.
To tag someone, put the @ followed by the name.

Just start over and follow the rules. You got triggered, but you can take a deep breath and exhale. Let it go. Read the rules and follow them and you’ll be ok. No worries.
You of course are correct. Dont let my ■■■■■■■■ get you off on the wrong foot. I’ll admit that you prob coulda puked the majority of it right back up, or had your stomach pumped immediately. My bad.
