Paranoid Schizophrenia

I live in the UK and was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia in 2014. Do other people know how you cope with this. It accompanied by hearing voices 24/7.. I mean while I’m awake. Thanks

I hope you find PC to be of benefit.

I had 24/7 voices prior to medication and therapy, luckily that only lasted for a month before I got treatment. The most effective treatment are antipsychotic medications in my experience.

For me, talking to people almost always makes it go away.

That was my original diagnosis 23 years ago, tho one of my dr disagreed with that specific diagnoses-for whatever reason- im not sure why. Its been a rough ride for sure for me. religious delusions/ideations, conspiracy thots/ideas, delusions of graduer, etc, etc. A number of meds tried according to one one of my current doc has been tried on me- piportal, stelazine, consta, but mostly risperidone used with various results. best remedy was denying the existance of spirits and spituality- this has helped many times, tho meds MUST be maintained to continue! I have read up on Many religions and have found faults in many of these- contradictions within. both textual contradictions and practical contradictions in these. best co existing pharma resolve is an antipsycotic along with a sedative- im most Sane when notably sedated! altho some meds wear off of effect after initial use....sadly. One advantage was to TRY to prove against ALL delusions/ ideas. if ur voices tell you one thing then try to disprove that- if successful then it helps relieve its power over you.

Hello has anyone ever heard of EMF broadcasting and Gang Stalking as an alternative explanation for what I and others above have at times actually in real life experienced.
