I can't sleep because I keep hearing voices. Though this time they were snoring DIRECTLY in my ear. They were LOUD. It woke me up. Then when I was awake, I still heard their snoring in the kitchen as I was preparing lunch for work. Also heard it in the car today.

They were also talking to me the other day while I was at work. They kept saying that I was a "damn weirdo" who "needs to get their sh_t together."

I'm slightly tired, but got 5 hrs of sleep. Normal is 9.5-10. I got a broken 6 the other day. I've been up since 4am and it's almost 8am now. I'm at work and having double vision from my rexulti, and I feel that some of my world is not real. Like, it's a mixture of real and fake.

The man's voice is a recurring thing. Him and a lady were harassing me before, like 2 years ago, so I remember him. He always harassed me. I just haven't heard the lady since then.

Yikes, that sounds awful. I'm sure the lack of sleep is contributing to them too. I wish I had some suggestions but I don't hear voices like that.

I hear voices at night and also see things. Visual and auditory hallucinations. I completely understand the frustration. Some nights the voices will be so annoying Im muttering “shut up just shut UP” to myself just- hoping maybe they WILL shut up.

What has helped me tbh is ear plugs and one of those sleep masks. Sort of... dimming my senses before I sleep.

Also. Meditation might be a good idea because I HAVE noticed mind are sometimes tied to stress.

It must be terrible. Do you talk back?.
I have a constant chirping of crickets or little birds in my ears.
I do answer back. With all the "French" that I know.

I am concerned about you, Blue!

The last time you had shared you were hearing both the man and the lady, you were having a very rough time.

Is it at the point where you might need a med tweak?

Thinking of you.

Idk, WC. My therapist said the same thing today...

---

Why are my voices taking over people's bodies? I don't understand.

The only thing they're doing, though, is whispering my name and listening to the sports radio. So I guess it's not too bad. But I'm also having visions of the future. Like if I close my eyes, I get visual pictures and sounds. I am predicting things. And nothing feels real.

I would suggest talking to your pdoc about this. Sounds like a med adjustmrnt might be in order. Do you take antipsychotics... because I know they help me with similar issues

Don't have a pdoc right now and my new pdoc I won't meet until mid April since I need a 1-hour intake appointment and that's the earliest he has available. It sucks.

My current antipsychotic is Rexulti, 2mg. I have room to increase the dose, but my insurance isn't going to cover the med at all. I'm left with a bunch of samples and no way to increase the dose.

I am very concerned about you, Blue.

There is no pdoc covering for either doc?

If the recently terminated doc is not available, I would contact the next pdoc and explain I need help now.

These damned drug companies and their "out of the ballpark" prices!

I hope you will give the new pdoc a call.
You really need your sleep, too, Blue, or this may just spiral.

Thinking of you!

Yeah, I don't know why the insurance companies are being b!tches about everything.

I heard this morning, "I saw you at the marathon..." likely about the Boston Marathon... and I heard the weather station talking to me. They kept saying my name. But the weather station was a voice. I don't have cable TV, and I don't have my tv hooked up to anything besides the power socket.The weather lady had put a picture of her in my head pointing to a map of the world. This is the second vision I've gotten.

I can try contacting the office, but I doubt they'll do anything. They seem useless.

Yeah, I'll update you if/when I'm allowed to talk to the new pdoc.

I called my therapist this morning to see what I can do to cope with the voices and visions, but I don't know if she's working because of all the snow we're getting. Her appointments might have been cancelled, so she might not have a reason to come in. She also has shortened hours on Thursdays in general, soooo... Idk if she'll respond today or not.

Good job!

She may pick up her messages and call you back.
More snow! Wow! Can you work from home today?
