You’ll probably overcome the voices in some years. I rarely notice any voices even though I had them for some decades.
My only problem at the moment is chaotic mood swings like mania and suicidal depressions. But I had a little raise in my mood stabilizer(Seroquel) so now my life already looks brighter.
With the new antipsychotics that will be released in some years most of you will have a dramatic reduction of voices.
I don’t think meds will help me. I tried risperidone, seraquel, abilify and a bunch of others. The one that worked best was Zuklopentixol but I got side- effects from it.
I’m on olanzapine and vraylar now. No delusional thinking, just voices and cracked brain. I also suffer from negatives.
You may be strained from lack of intimacy as well… it was good to hear about how your brother was cheeky with you about the birthday money. That kind of stuff matters
Try writing things in a journal and ask mh team for an urgent appointment with a doctor. Show the doctor your journal or make a list of everything and see how they can help, hugs
