Hi Lexa2526

You explained it very well. It sounds like you have established some coping skills with these voices. Managing them continuously has got to be very difficult.

I found an excerpt that I thought was interesting and may help. It is below:

(The most useful strategy described by voice hearers is to select the positive voices and listen and talk only to them, and to try to understand them.
An important element in coping successfully with voices is to accept them. This appears to be related to a process of growth towards taking responsibility for one’s own decisions. You have to learn to think in a positive way about yourself, your voices, and your own problems.
Another strategy is to set limits and structure the contact with the voices, sometimes accompanied by rituals or repeated actions.)


I hope this helps in some way. Best wishes.
