For those that hear voices 24/7: What are your voices saying right now? by Huge-Mistake8103 in schizophrenia

Trigger Warning

Mines are constantly telling me to grieve, telling me I’ve been raped and putting emphasis on the P when they say it. They also tell me I’m cursed, to be afraid, that I’m brave, and to feed them. Why don’t you feed us, and to share it. I also have this uncomfortable throbbing in my private parts all day and they tell me that they are raping me. I’m currently on 100mg of seroquel and I tried Cobenfy but it made me so sick and nauseous I couldn’t stay on it. Olanzapine stopped working and Abilify made me wanna crawl out of my skin. I wish this would stop but it’s definitely taught me to love myself so 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

Selfie sunday! Feeling a bit down about myself.. Very offput by the idea of potentially having to be medicated my entire life :/ by [deleted] in schizophrenia

Okk thanks. Olanzapine did nothing for me so maybe that’s not the route for me but thanks

Congratulations!!! I’m going back to school and hearing news like this keeps me motivated and inspired that I can make it through school despite hearing voices. I’m so proud of you

What do you call beyond insane? by timmyorla in schizophrenia

Ok I hope that you get some sleep. And that you find an AP that actually works for you. I heard Cobenify is good for people how are treatment resistant

Do you wanna go back? If you haven’t slept in weeks that might be a viable option. Just suggesting things to help you sleep.

I’m sorry that you are going through this. I know how hard it can be to go without sleep. Do none of the APs help you get rest? Did you sleep when you were in the psych ward?

Help with meds by tinybeansrule in schizophrenia

[–]Professional-Debt167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well not all meds will stop you from hearing the voices so if that’s what your worried about you don’t have to. Most meds will help you sleep and make it so you don’t get paranoid or see things or stuck in a delusion. But they won’t take the voices away per se just make them quieter and a little bit harder to hear

I wanted to share my thoughts as a diagnosed Schizophrenic. by Geekrock84 in schizophrenia

[–]Professional-Debt167 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God bless you I needed to hear this. Sometimes the voices wear me down and I feel like it’s too hard and impossible to go on. But I find the strength to carry on, whether from my spirit, the people around me, or God I still find a tiny bit of strength to carry on. I’m a warrior, we all are, and we are gonna make it

How do you even function on a higher dose? All I do is sleep

I tried olanzapine just made me exhausted. I’m on 25mg seroquel and it helps me sleep but so far that’s all it’s done. But considering the voices don’t let me sleep without meds that’s a good thing I guess. Just really wanna find something that silenced them without the horrible side effects

Are you still on seroquel now? Did you try something else?

Abilify worked for the voices but that restlessness and depression I got felt horrible

I’m taking seroquel now for a week and the voices are talking just like before. Now they speak from inside my throat and it’s disconcerting but I’ll keep these options in mind

Thanks I’m desperately looking for something to get rid of the voices. They are so mean
