This is crap. As someone who has suffered with schizophrenia and heard voices for over 7 months when I was symptomatic and after 1 month of meds became completely &quot;normal&quot; again. It&#x27;s been over 7 years since then and I&#x27;m still just fine. I can tell you that if you hear voices you should go to the emergency room at your nearest hospital. They have mental health workers there that can evaluate you and get you treatment - most likely in the form of a 5150 hold. They will give you meds to stop the voices (if your lucky, some people don&#x27;t respond to the meds).<p>The reason you should deal with it immediately is with every &quot;episode&quot; you have you get worse, eventually hitting a baseline where you don&#x27;t get any worse but you don&#x27;t get better either. My sister has the same thing and is permanently screwed with the meds barely doing anything for her. If she would have delt with the voices as soon as she heard them and started taking meds for it she may be just fine today - shes not and never will be because of trying to &quot;Learn to live with voices&quot; crap. Just a heads up... maybe this will help someone.
