Auditory Hallucinations

Auditory Hallucinations

Hi There,

I suffer from Psychosis. I’m still waiting to see if I get a proper diagnosis, it might be schizophrenia but not sure yet.
I’m hearing voices all the time and the voices that I can hear can hear my thoughts and they know what I’m thinking.
The thoughts that I have are intrusive thoughts. They’re unwanted, extremely unpleasant thoughts.

Does anyone else suffer from this?

The voices I hear criticise me but sometimes they are helpful and they say they want to help me.

It’s really my messed up thoughts that I get inside my head that bother me and it creates anxiety and stress for me because I don’t want to have these awful thoughts. I just want it to go away 😞

It’s interfering with my life! I can’t go out and enjoy myself anymore and I’ve lost my job because of this. I’ve tried to work at my job but I struggled soo much and I couldn’t do it anymore.

Hi @tyme

Thanks for sharing

I think I am very similar in that aspect of your life

I am not a Life of Brian fan,

But I like the title "Always look on the bright side of life"

But I do like Fawlty Towers. So true.

To be more like you I found @Kyle1 hat in his poem

I just need to learn @tyme disappearing trick and coming back from @Ava23

@Former-Member

I’m sorry about the late reply about this.

Thanks very much and it sounds like you found something that worked for you and it all makes sense. What a great strategy to use when trying to eliminate bad/ negative thoughts out of your mind.
