feeling a little better about things this morning but still weak. do any of you here voices. i just can't seem to make them stop.i call them my voices but others call the "old tapes" whatever they are called , i am talking about the ugly, destructive thoughts that plaque me. sometimes they are so loud i can't even think straight. the ideas in my head get pretty scary. the thoughts would completely destroy me if i let them. sometimes i turn my inspirational music on really loud to try to drowned out these thoughts. it is so hard for me to say anything good about myself or accept the good things others say to me. i just wish these voices would stop. i would like to add some more pictues on here of my family but i don't know how. can anyone help me? thanks.

I\'m sorry you are hearing voices. Sometimes when I am in a store or crowded place, I will hear someone calling my name. I look around but I don\'t see anyone I recognize and no one seems to be looking for me. Other times I think I see or perceive that something is there but it\'s not. I haven\'t told me pdoc about this, he\'s such an xxxhole that he probably wouldn\'t believe me anyway. I think you are under a tremendous amount of stress which are causing these voices. I hope you feel better. Your friend, Carol
I call my voices the \"the other person living in my body\". I feel like it is taking over my body and I have no control over it. I have a book called The Anorexia Wookbook. Don\'t know if you already have the book, but if you don\'t it teaches you how to deal with the voices. It says you shouldn\'t try to ignore them because they will just get worse.
My voices cause me anxiety and I get a lower back pain from all of it. I think I berate myself all of the time and get worried. Best thing to do is to talk about it or try to relax and calm down and get rest. You might be very tired especially from what you went through with your husband. Resting and going to sleep always makes you feel better so try to do that. Read a book that will help you. I don\'t know how to download pictures at all. My husband has done this for me. Maybe your daughter can do this. My daughter can. Kids today are savy with the computer and camera.
