i hear voices inside and outside my head.the other day i had a voice telling me i was going to kill myself that night,although i didn't want to.it scared me i felt although this thing,voice would take over and i would kill myself.i went to the local hospital and was told to go home take 10 mg of diazapan and see my regular doc next day to get my meds highered.
i did this also my doc refered me to a physciarist marked as urgent.
but what do i do in the meantime all the diazapan does is send me to sleep for a couple of hours i'm no better when i wake up.
it just feels when i get into a mood swing something tries to take over my mind.
is this depression?because thats all the doc keeps saying it is.

this happens to me sometimes, especially if im really down and quiet except in my head its something arguing with me and it gets so damn annoying, i told my dr. about this to and they just said o its nothing to worry about so i know how you feel when its like noone can help.
im defently thinking about you and if you need to talk im here.

I was where you are at. I heard voices. I ended up hospitalized waiting for someone to see me. They said that the voices are a type of hallucination brought on by depression. Once I was treated I heard only my own voice and those around me. I take meds for depression and am now off antipsychotics. No voices still bother me to this day. It is scary and makes you feel as if you lost your mind. You need to get help as soon as possible. If you cant see a doc then go back to the hospital.

It could be your meds. If you feel like it's something else message me and we'll talk.

I'd go check into the emergency room. Isn't their some standard of having to keep you if you are in danger of harming yourself or others. Voices telling you to kill yourself sounds like harm to self to me.

Some people hear voices, some see things, some both or neither. It happens in several forms of mental illness. PTSD, Schzophrenia, a brain turmor, might be your meds, or could be anything.

The what isn't the problem, you need help now in controlling what the voices are saying to you. I hope you get it and soon.

I have my experiences with voices. There is the voice in my head that is the true me. It hates being trapped in the person that I currently am.

The voice is the me that I can be and want to be. He wants to do things outside while I sit on the couch and watch TV. He is the one telling me to wake up and goto classes, and do homework. I just ignore him and sleep. He is the only one I can talk to since no one else wants to be my friend.

not trying to take a jab at you or anything, it's just a question I have to ask...Are you on any street drugs? Because I was hearing voices and seein things, like shadow people. It was drug induced schizophrenia, from doing meth.

im not sure what is going on with you but i dont think that you are being treated right....they should have just shoved you out the door like that, if you feel that you are not safe than go to the er and tell them that you can not take one more minute of one more day.....then they would have to do something....dont you think??? in the long run i think that you meds need to be bumped up or changed, it doesnt sound like you are in control of you disease.....lots of people here to help you through.....keep talking hun and get the support that you need.

please stay with us or someone you trust while you wait to see the doctor

Is there anyway to call your emergency doctor on call and tell them that you are no better with this med, and it is scary for you

Sometimes, it is so hard, ya have to fight fight fight to get the right kind of treatment, and I know, it is hard to do when we are depressed, I give up too easy on myself sometimes, or don't want to bother anyone

Keep safe, and please remember you have friends here.,,,

I have a friend who hears voices at times. Sometimes she goes to the hospital when the doctor puts her in. There is medication out there. Hold on to see the specialist. She does not hear voices all the time now so I know medication helps. Also prayer. Your friend

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
