I have been suffering for awhile with voices in my head. They keep telling me people are going to hurt me or people are talking poorly about me behind my back. I feel like I cant control my emotions or my thoughts. I have been having some compulsive behavior that could put me or others in danger. I dont try to communicate with people or simply look at anyone because I am afraid of what I may hear or see. I think I also have hallucinations. When i get in my car if im alone, after driving for awhile a random person will appear and they start telling me bad things about other drivers on the road and how they will try to run me off the road. It makes me very scared and paranoid. Any suggestions???????

You need to tell someone you can trust who can help you. I know it's very hard but it is very important that you get help to feel better.

You're seeking help, and that's a good first step. I am going to urge you to please let that extend beyond the internet into your life, and talk to a trusted friend, family member, whoever you can, and get to a mental health professional.
This forum can provide you with plenty of kind words, anecdotes about similar experiences, and lots of encouragement, but it can't solve this. This isn't something you can fix by sheer willpower. I know that sounds really daunting, but you have an entire community on here to support you and help you through your experiences. You don't have to do it alone, but a step needs to happen beyond this website. I probably sound super dark and gloomy, and I promise it's not on purpose, but this is a condition I have a personal stake in; my little sister, my best friend in the whole world, started hearing voices as part of a psychotic break. Her mental health declined over a period of months, and it finally reached a breaking point when she graduated high school. She ended up in a mental hospital because she was so suicidal, and the voices were getting so unbearable, that she came to my parents and knew she wouldn't make it through the night. To this day, I am nothing but proud of her. She knew she couldn't handle this alone, so she reached out and got help. She took meds, she went to therapy, she took care of herself and was honest with herself to know she couldn't handle it alone. It's scary. But the worst part is the first step. You just have to leap. |
