I guess its good that Im in treatment then. If not for me then for everyone else
Don't give up.With the right meds the voices can go away. I was surprised how many symptoms went away when I got the right meds. It just took a long time to achieve that (but it was worth it).

Yeah I dunno. Everythings been quieter lately which is good but I still... I dont like life right now. It is stupid because I do have a lot going for me- Im not dying in a third world country or homeless or anything... but I just feel like Im emotionally being crushed to pieces.

I dont want to be mentally ill. I dont want to take medication. I just want to escape from all of this and have everything just magically become good. But maybe thats just being greedy I dunno.

Even though the voices havent been around much lately doesnt mean they wont come back. And I know its going to happen and Im just so tired of it

Just wanted everyone who responded here to know that... things have changed a bit and because of that... I have more hope than I did. All in all I feel like 100 times better and really really want that to conrinue. I hate taking medication but I cant deny that right now... even though I sort of view having to take medication as some sort of prison... I do feel actually... more free?

Anyways thanks to you all. While I doubt the voices will go away completely... They DO tend to change with my mood. When my mood is very depressed the things I hallucinate are less pleasant and when I am not depressed they tend to be more neutral. So Im hoping... even if the hallucinations never really stop (though I hope eventually they do- they lessen instead of increase in their frequency) they become less scary. Id much rather hallucinate squirrels and flamingos or whatever than demons.

Anyways! This is getting long so Ill end it with... a thank you to all of you. I havent been here very long but you all treated me as one of your own and Im very grateful for your kindness.

I'm glad things are getting better for you. Try not to look at medication as a prison, think of it of them releasing you of your prison of hallucinations. If the medications are helping you please don't stop them. They will help release the demons from your thoughts. Nobody should ever have to live like that.
