I don't know what to do. My husband has been hearing voices that he believes to be real people. He thinks he can hear people talking about him, that they are listening to us through his cell phone and some how they can see what we do inside our home.
I don't know how to help him anymore. This started about 3 years ago but has never been this bad. Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can do to help him? |

Have you called a mental health provider? Do you think he is a danger to himself or others ?

No, he seems to be just the opposite. He keeps saying how he doesn't bother anyone and he doesn't understand why "they" are out to get him. He thinks they are trying to provoke him because they want to get him in trouble.
He knows I don't hear them but he knows I believe he hears them but at the same time I dont think his interpretation of them is correct. I'm sorry that made no sense. I don't talk down to him or say he's crazy for his beliefs but at the same time I don't lie and say I hear them or believe any of it. We don't say much in our home. We go for a ride if we need to talk. Which is hard on both of us. We have been married over 20 years with 2 grown daughters and 3 grandkids our relationship has always been based on honesty. He knows I love him. I HOPE |
