Found a new way to silence the voices, by punishing them back. I just imagine they are being punished. I ask their name and then imagine a scene. Some of them gone quiet since. I warned them many times, and I don’t like being played with. Enough is enough.

I tried making friends with mine for many years. I found out they treat subconscious thought as fact and I’d do what you did. I don’t know maybe get over them or I’ll try once again to befriend them. They served a purpose in my life. They are just no longer helpful. I’ve just about totally given up loving them. And I go periods when I don’t dwell on them and I have enthusiasm.
Maybe I don’t have DID along with sza. It seems to be a conscious mind game. It just didn’t seem like me in the past, it was contrary to me and inventive.
I’ve heard that imagination is everything, so perhaps they now understand who is in charge. Have this particular voice that is a female witch, and hear her every single day about every 5 minutes. I warned her, and if I hear her again it will be game over.
Most of them say they are witches btw, which is peculiar.

It did work somehow… I imagine having some weapon or brain sword with which I can remove certain neural networks on command.
I can even see the neural networks and travel through them to locate invaders. Not a delusion, I just can see inside my own brain and make changes there through intense concentration or meditation. It can be painful sometimes. But it is all I have in trying to cure myself from this.
The brain is demonic, a dark place that feels no pain as there are no pain receptors.
The voices are not real, you are just ill

They are real to me… have even recorded it on my smartphone. They are around me as well, so both internal and external.
my psych team tells me ignoring them is the best route to quieting them, but especially at night i fight with them challenging their reality. doesn’t help that i see some of my voices. when i need a med change or increase in dosage the voices over take mine and just get more violent. hope it works for you voices really suck.

I think that is good advice. Whenever I have auditory hallucinations, I ignore them. If I acknowledge the voices or begin talking to them it never ends well.

Interacting with the “voices” is harmful long-term. I also experienced hallucinations every 5-15 minutes in a span of 3-4 years. It was constant, always voices, always visions, always some information disturbing my peace.
Since I believed that images in my mind are “signals” that real third-party individuals send my way, I attempted to reason with them, strike deals, come to agreements. It worked for maybe a few days, at the very most. Then it all just returns, new ideas, new “threats”, etc.
However, when I treated it like an illness, like noise, with no agency behind it, only then did I have significant long-term improvements.
Put simply, ignore the voices at any cost, find a way to do it, find a way to ground yourself, try every little single thing to keep your mind off of them. This is proven practically to be the only route. If you interact, respond, think they are “real”, you lose.
