I’m over my psychosis. The telepathic messages and the confusion are at a minimum but damnit I’m still hearing voices. I thought they’d get quieter with time but they are still keeping me up at night.
perhaps a medication adjustment - I’d recommend you talk with your psychiatrist…

This may sound like a horrible idea, but fasting may help. It will reset your system, and speed up the process of change. I don’t know how this works with meds though.
Hope you feel better @BryanAshley - @SzAdmin is right, maybe a medication adjustment is needed?

The days aren’t so bad there is just a quiet murmur. It the long lonely nights filled with harassment that get to me. Fuels the part of me that just wants to end it. I’m alive for two reasons to keep my family and friends happy and because I want to see the future. I definitely think its time to try some new meds. Maybe seroquel or its generic. 8 mg of straight up uselessness. Damn I’m being kind of negative right now, sorry guys and gals.

How do the headphones help?
Yeah headphone hell but then I get tired of listening to the same music. It also feels different and doesn’t work as well when I’m just trying to not hear voices. For some reason they go away when I’m out and about but my home life is plagued with constant voice hearing. Hopefully I can figure it out in the next few years.
im opposite i hear them when im out headphones on it stops me HEARING full stop.
it’s probably because there’s nothing for your mind to concentrate on hunni. mine are mostly quiet when i’m interacting with people but loud and obnxious at night when i’m not doing a lot or alone. maybe try a new med hunny. i’ve just started abilify tonight. no change yet but maybe in time? who knows. good luck xxx

I hear voices all day.
That sounds like torture. The voices torturing me all day.
The voices are talking about swearing and religious things.
I am taking risperidone (6 mg), haloperidol (5 mg) and clonazepam (2mg).
And you? What the voices say to you? What medications are you taking?
Would some kind of white noise help?
Like a fan going–or a cd with relaxing nature sounds?

I’m sorry your getting stuck in a rough patch. Just like with everything… some days are better then others. I hope you have a better day very soon.
Until then, I find too that simple distractions help… a walk, some art work…
If I sit quiet too long, my circus likes to take that as a cue to amp up. If I try to go to bed when I’m not really sleepy, then I’m just lying there… having a rough evening.
Good luck and i hope you feel better soon.
