cool. they might have something of value to tell you... have you ever thought of it as a gift?

Hi and welcome, @j2mhall . It's good you've joined the forums for some support.

I'm wondering if you have any professional supports in place? Like a supportive GP, medication or a counsellor?

You can type anything into the search bar to find threads on that topic. Also, a handy forum tip to tag someone is to type @ and then click on their name in the drop-down box - that way they'll get a notification that you've replied to them.

Feel free to let us know how we can support you.

Now I get voices from other people, they freak me out.

I can imagine it's very scary @j2mhall especially if it has happened very suddenly. Like @NatureLover said, it can be good to seek some extra support from a GP or similar, do you have a GP you can talk to about what you're experiencing?

We've got some info about psychosis and some self-help for when you're hearing voices, you should check them out.

Let us know how we can support you and we'll do our best 💜

Hi,

I do have a psychologist that I see, but my anxiety still gets overwhelming sometimes.

I'm hearing you @j2mhall . Anxiety can really stop people from getting on with life. What does your doctor say about it? Anything you can do to ease the anxiety a little?

They have just put me on some anxiety medication. I still get stressed though

I recognise that is so hard to hear @j2mhall

Do you believe these voices are right?

I can't say I have experience of hearing voices, so if i've said anything wrong, please pull me up.

I want you to know you are not alone.
