I just started realising how hugely stress is connected to my symptoms.
Several days ago, when we didn’t knew what is waiting for my brother - whole evening I was hallucinating. And rlly badly.
Whenever life becomes stressful, hallucinations becomes terrifying.
It makes me wonder, that schizophrenia truly means really sensitive brains, which are tend to overreacting.

How is your sleep? Stress is so much worse when my body and mind are not rested.

Stress management is the best tool for immediate symptom management. Meds are the first line of defense. Stress management is second. Diet and exercise is third.

My voices get bad when I’m relaxing and trying to go to sleep. I also hear voices when there is a lot of white noise. My meds help significantly.
