Anyone figure out how to deal with anxiety brought on by voices. It messes up half of everyday then the anxiety dies off around 4 everyday. Then im just thankful the anxiety is gone then.
Im doing breathing exercises like a mf and trying to have activities to keep my mind occupied. Going to the gym or at least working out everyday helps too
Any meds, hobbies activities anyone recommends?
Maybe mirtazapine for anxiety
Okay thank you! I’ll bring it up to my pdoc
Have you tried hydroxyzine it’s for anxiety
Yes but to deal with drooling from clozapine and was hopefully gonna help with my anxiety.
Thank you for recommending ill have to ask my pdoc where I am on dosing spectrum
I take 100mg 3 times a day
Okay for sure im only at 25mg 2x per day
Maybe music with headphones?
My voices these days are neutral. They don’t create much anxiety. I hope you find something that helps.
My voices and anxiety are understandible. Better to hear no voices and it doesn’t help believing in things that make no sense. Someone told me most of my voices aren’t real. Just want peace of mind. I will try to achieve this.
I found back when the voices were s severe problem i would do something that requires full attention too the hobby for example a fighting video game like mortal kombat also i personally do archery it helps with anxiety
BUT if you dont feel safe with a bow and arrow dont do it
