What meds are you currently on? Are you on an antipsychotic?

Yes I'm on Risperdal and Lexapro. But neither seem to be helping in my dilemma.

It's really important that you make sure you get it through to your pdoc or t that you are still having these voices. Have you talked to your parents about it?

I agree that you need to be persistant with your pdoc. Keep being persistant and he might realize that something IS wrong and do something to stop the voices. *hug*

Hi happy1,

I would have to agree with the others. Go back to your pdoc and tell him you won't leave until he helps you. Keep trying different meds until you find one that works for you. I take abilify and that helps a lot. Though there are many other drug options available as well. You might want to ask here what has helped other people to give you an idea of where to go if your pdoc doesn't know. Maybe even switch pdocs if you can't get this one to listen.

Love and Hugs
Tara

Thanks Tara. I've tried Abilify and that was the worst drug for me. I think I want to try Seroquel (since i've been on abilify, geodon, and risperdal). I guess I'll keep trying to convince him that im not getting any better...

Thanks.

no drugs involved, heare the voices, then in a place you are alone heare each voice. this is hard but you can do it.hear the voice and listen the goto the next voice, do the same.
