This year. I have come to believe that the brain can be really wired and trained. I grew tired of thinking negatively about other people who were close to me. I believe I'm improving. Since I'm learning to back out of those processes.
Congratulations on cultivating patience, calmness and focus to reel yourself back in to a more comfortable place within yourself. That is Olympic athlete level training right there. People underestimate the skill, strength and experience it takes to get to that point. We all have to work with the brain we're born with!!
Im hear voices but mine are on another level. I cant enjoy life and medications don't help. Work makes it worst I dont' belong around people. I have to survive and I'm fighting to win disability denied twice
That is exactly how felt in the start, and even still I try to keep being around people short. I tried to be ok first with myself by myself, and then started slowly getting back into the world with work and all. It sucks getting denied for disability. There are law firms that helped me that I found out about in the hospital to get disability. They get paid lyre from social security administration so you don’t have to pay anything. Maybe try that?
Thank you for sharing ❤ I don’t know if I have this or not but my negative thoughts, compulsive behaviours to soothe the anxiety and levels of catastrophizing situations that literally haven’t even taken place makes me a bit concerned. It became worse after a big break up and financial/job loss since COVID lockdowns. I’m very much avoidant of people as much as possible.
So we’ll put I also try avoid information since it speaks to me. The voices almost seem like personalities in my mind but I never had multiple personality disorder it’s like I was close to getting that. I stay present at work. Once I didn’t listen to music for 2 years. It’s tough but keep it up!!
Thank you for the information n could u please send me the video links that u have mentioned here? Thank you n thank u for the positive note and this will give hope to millions! ❤️🙏

This should get you started Thank you for the nice comment!
I have a bit of a phobia around breathing too and it sounds like you take sharp breaths so if you have that too I feel you I am just hyper focused on my breathing.
I know ECT stopped music talking to me. Took one year to fight for it but hear I am with it talking to me again so again I'm fighting for it. It's heard man.
thank you for sharing, i experience the exact same thing as you. constant voices from the past, people plotting things on me. music and videos dont stop talking. what medication worked for you?
Medications work differently for different people and you should consult your doctor before taking any, but I take Paliperidone. Therapy also really helped in teaching me skills to push things away and focus away from voices. I have lessened my music consumption, tv shows. I do watch RU-vid and learn new things. For music I fortunately can play a little bit of guitar so I try to figure out how to play things. So even though not completely pushed away I try to incorporate it back into my life slowly. Hope it gets easier for you friend. You are strong, just remember that.
You hear music talking? I also hear music talking. I think it is pretty rare even among schizophrenics. I cope by using different perspectives and knowledge. It can at least change my perspective when i hear their words. Also because schizophrenia loves talking so much, i record their voice and mix it with another audio channel. I call it audio mix. I try to make some kind of relations from the overlapped words. When i’m not mixing the audio, i just mute the sound just like you do.
During mania, I could hear voices in sounds. but that has subsided. This is hearing music with lyrics that have a direct message to me, which is why I stopped listening to much music. It took a long time for me to not seek meaning in everything I was experiencing. Before it was so loud that I had no ability to look away from it. But over time with coping skills and medication, I am able to function. Hope it gets easier for all of us struggling with this. Thank you for the comment
