I think my neighbors are after me. I’m scared to go outside. Sorry you’re having issues with your mental state. It’s not easy. I am sza,bpd 2, depression OCD and PTSD .
I realized a couple decades back that I would always have them on anything less than the max dose of an AP. I’ve had to learn to co-exist with them on lower doses. Alternating between eating and sleeping all day is not living.
I know i have been told this by the nurses did you say you had a tolerance ti the medication resistant?
I just cant co exsist with them they are messing me uo
Im back to being deluded about having dead people or alien s in my head snd. Someone else is getting my medicine
Sorry if im not allowed to have posted that
I’m classed as treatment resistant. CBT and DBT were huge for me. Now I can hear voices and have weird thoughts and my automatic reaction is that, well, that’s just silly. My positives went from being terrifying to amusing or mildly embarrassing (on par with George Lucas dialogue). I have the thought or hear the voice and be all YA WHATEVAH and just keep doing what I’m doing. It’s just mental elevator music now.
Thats where iam at at the moment
Im findijng it really hard to ignore them because they move around and can change the loudnes so what are your distractions ifnyou dont mind me asking
When they were the worst I just had to accept them. I also had to avoid what triggered them.
I couldn’t watch tv because I could hear comments through the commercials. When I took showers I could hear babbling through the running water. Sounds coming from outside sounded like I was being gaslighted. When I heard people outside talking I thought they talked about me. Sounds, noises and people all triggered my voices.
I had running commentary constantly.
What did help was buying a pair of Bluetooth headphones. I listen to a lot of music. I try to focus on the music as much as I can.
I practice not caring what goes around me which was and is hard, I was obsessed by my surrounding.
It’s hard but finding the right meds and avoiding triggers helped.
