I’m suffering and my aripiprazole isn’t working, these voices are very bizarre, I’m a person who doesn’t talk much at home, when I say something in my head nothing happens, but when I speak with my mouth, 2 or 3 days later the voice appears saying what I said in a mocking tone. Like I talk about football, and the voice says “He doesn’t know how to talk about football” or, I say my age and the voice says “He said he’s 22 years old” These voices are killing me.

I understand, my voices talk about my personal life, it’s very depressing to hear a voice scolding you all the time for everything I say.

I have an appointment in a few days and I hope to get the right medicine, I don’t know if risperidone will work, I don’t remember because it was the first antipsychotic I took.
It works great for me 6mg

I ended up forgetting what it causes, besides low libido, what else does it cause? I intend to replace it with him.
Increased appetite

Your voices are what you expect to hear. Thus it is a reflection of what you think others think of you made ‘real’.
Change your mindset of how you feel about yourself and your voices will change to positve ones. Be a friend to yourself, love yourself, think you are worthy, look to others and see how they really feel about you for self assurance.
Change your inner dialogue to one of kindness and see your life transform, including your voices.
Do this and your life can change.

Thank you for the advice I will practice doing this, in relation to my high self-esteem I am very pessimistic and I see you saying this I really need to change.

I had the same thing going on on abilify. A constant negative dialogue in my head, was very frustrating. I’d feel bad just for having thoughts and constantly put myself down in attempt to make others feel better or some weird thing.

Abilify doesn’t make you sleepy, I thought that was cool, but after getting psychotic with it I regret asking my doctor for this medicine, this medicine gives me insomnia, anxiety and leaves me terrified with a feeling of persecution at all times.
Does everyone with sz have intrigue thoughts? I switched to Geodon for a weeks, started having negative thoughts about others, and when I went back to olanzapine the negative thoughts were still there. I remember when I was back in the psych ward, I had these intrusive thoughts before the olanzapine started working so maybe it is the disease and not some brain altering from Geodon.
I don’t know for sure, but for me I think it’s the medicine’s fault, as I’ve already taken several antipsychotics and there were some that didn’t make me persecute.

My voices repeat what i say,
narrate what i think or do
(Look at him, he’s thinking of that,
or he’s doing this),
talk about me as if i wasn’t there etc

I can relate to the original post.
I don’t know if there’s a name for it, but I get mocking voices that narrate a running commentary of every detail I do.
Like, look at her, she just walked into the kitchen! Or she just picked up that book again. Or whatever.
It’s highly annoying. I’m on my 8th antipsychotic and it will lessen sometimes but never completely disappear.
Yuck.

Why can’t the voices once in a while say something nice? My voices always say “You’re going to be mean to (insert person’s name)”

I hate it when I’m having a conversation irl and the voices bombard my head. I always have to ask people to repeat themselves

This has happened to me, a few times like I do something and out of nowhere the voice says what I did at the same time, but for me most of the time it’s 2 or 3 days after I say or do something.

I understand, I’ve taken more than 8 antipsychotics and only some of them took away some of the voices and made me less paranoid.
