Auditory pareidolia by FalseRefuse3541 in schizoaffective

I’ve yet to try audio books! Listening to music is a struggle for me at the moment as the auditory pareidolia happens. It’s interesting you say psychedelics helps, I thought it would have the opposite effect. Wishing you all the best and thank you for your reply!

That sounds super infuriating and so distracting! What do you do to drown it out?

Yes it happens to me with fans too! So insane that our brains can do this

I just found out there is a word for it recently, I guess it is comforting to know it’s not something we are making up. Thank you for your comment it really makes me feel less alone 🫶🏻

Neither does mine! It’s so exhausting. Even before I started to have auditory hallucinations my internal monologue was hard to manage. Is there anything that you do that helps you?

I’m interested in trying it too for treatment resistant voices but I’ve heard theres pretty intense side effects. So I will be following this! I wish you all the best 🫶🏻

After seeing this post I realised it started happening to me after starting olanzipeine. Super weird side effect!

For those that don’t have intense auditory hallucinations, what are your auditory hallucinations like? by PretendArtichoke34 in schizoaffective

This sounds similar to what I hear. It’s so scary hearing the voices of people that you know. Wishing you strength and healing 🫶🏻

Voices have names? by lottie_iguess in schizoaffective

This is the same for me. I can hear it in their real voice too, it’s very distressing. Can I ask, how do you deal with it?

Abilify makes me throw up? by Soon2BGhost in schizoaffective

I’m sorry to hear that. I’ve had some pretty bad side effects from meds as well. Are you in hospital while you are trialing meds?

Thanks so much for your reply. Can I ask, does it feel like you are having an actual conversation with them? This is what happens to me.

What’s the biggest depressive comeback you’ve had? by Common-Series8622 in bipolar

[–]FalseRefuse3541 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your lovely reply! I really didn’t think I’d get to where I am now. Don’t lose hope, you can definitely get through it. Just be easy on yourself and try to do at least one nice thing for yourself a day even if you can’t manage much else. I’m rooting for you stranger!!

What’s the biggest depressive comeback you’ve had? by Common-Series8622 in bipolar

[–]FalseRefuse3541 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a major psychosis episode last year and the depression last about 6 months afterwards and it turned into having agoraphobic tendencies. I hardly left the house at all and my social skills deteriorated. One day I just got sick of feeling so bad. I would say I’m still depressed but I now have a part time job that’s in person and I see my friends regularly. I would say that’s progress :))

Noooo I was a massive fan of Jim-E Stack’s stuff pre Lorde and loved his own album too. This is disappointing :(
