I feel I'm really taking the plunge here, being new and that - but i really strongly believe - maybe know - that these internal voices are good - but perhaps i wouldn't put it in the same words as your psychiatrist did. I think they're what you can call "split-off" bits that are making themselves heard 'cos now you're well enough to include them in yourself. For example, i say don't be frightened of "God is the devil" because actually life isn't all black and white; we are all averything that there is. When a rush of new thoughts/feelings emerge, I find it good just to relax around them without believing they are "me" or something I have to do. You could be led to an important memory or dream. At the same time i would say, perhaps the psychiatrist needs telling that you need more support with what's emerging. It's OK having the blues, but you don't want the blues to have you, sort of thing. Anyway, my thoughts are with you.
