Hi

    Helen:

     

    For many years, I thought the voices I heard were demonic.  I even thought Satan himself was talking to me.  I'm still not entirely convinced that they were not what I thought they were, but even if they were, my medications have sent them all packing.

     

    I thought the devil had created an entryway for my demons into my mind.  I couldn't keep them out.  And then he started letting everyone in.  I lost track of who I was and thought that I become everyone that I heard speeking.  It wasn't multi-tasking, but it sure was multi-thinking.  Crowds scared me to death.

     

    Since they're now gone (thanks to my medications), it really doesn't make much difference what they were or were not.

     

    I move on with my life very much as I always have, but now I can find peace when I need it and friends like you to talk to.

     

    Keep writing.  It helps a lot to talk about it with others that have been there.

    Hi Helen, I have paranoid schizophrenia and beleive also that the voices are spirits. Sometimes I hear a roar of thousands of voices from above booing or arguing against the unclean spirits and devils so it's encouraging to know I have a heavenly host of support. Unfortunately the demons are loud and like the sound of there own voices but I stay strong with prayer. Well actually I'm a complete mess and I somehow survived an overdose as well as driving my car into a light post at 120kms but I'll never lose the faith.

     

    I started hearing voices after taking methamphetamine 7 years ago and staying awake for 3 weeks. Then they kept me awake with many months of very little sleep. My life has now changed greatly since my drug using days and I'm drug free but I still constantly hear voices. What am I supposed to do as the prescribed medication has never helped?

     

    I'm on largatil, phenergan, piportal injection, antidepresants, orphenadrine and sleeping pills and something else. I really don't think that all these meds are helping, though I need the sleeping pills to sleep.

     

    I fear being incarcerated in hospital if I don't come right which is where I've just come from after the suicide attempts.

    Hi Daniel. I am also a paranoid schizophrenic.  I know what you are going through. My heart goes out to you.  You are suffering badly. I am on largactil and clopicsol. Even though the medication has closed the door to the voices in an extent i still struggle some time with voices when I try to go to sleep. I believe the devil knows my sleep is important to me so that is what he will try to disturb. If i choose to I can communicate with the voices.  Put your trust in God and live a clean life. I find that taking ginkco biloba, Omega 3 and 6 and ginseng helps me to sleep better.  I have been taking it for a week now and I have not taken a sleeping tablet for the last week. Please contact me again.

    I am currently working as a teacher but my memory and concentration is poor. Do you work?

    Hi Helen. No I lost my job as a printer because of all the time off work in hospital. I also sense evil faces behind my face which I can't stand. In the past it's been a real smug expression but more recently it's hate I can sense on my face.

     

    Now I'm a gentle natured person with a kind heart so sensing these wicked features drives me crazy. Also sometimes one spirit who I call the joker laughs at quite sick things which is a worry for me because his emotion sometimes overpowers my emotions and I find myself grinning when I should'nt be.

     

    All this sounds completely crazy to those who don't realise the effect demons can have on people and I should mention that most people would'nt even notice these facial features on me.

     

    I could tell you some stuff that makes me sound even crazier like when I slumped to the floor paralysed after they twisted something in my spine and used needles against me. But fortunately I could walk after prayer. I used to use intravenous drugs.

     

    I have been on clopicsol as well but I developed a rash and it made me feel like my brains were being fried. I hope you are okay on it but I don't recommend that one if it's the one with the other name zuclothenpixol or something but I'm no doctor. Although it seems psych docs seem to prescribe indiscriminately, it's a bit of a lottery and if your under the mental health act they force you to take them.

     

    About 6 years ago I found myself locked in a police cell and I was about to jump off a table head first into a concrete urinal to make the suffering stop but a policeman stopped me. Talk about evil, these demons and unclean spirits just laughed and continued tormenting me. These wicked spirits will be on there knees before Father God by the sword.

     

    I'm from New Zealand where I'm sending this out from my mum and dads place which is where I am now after spending 6 months in hospital.

     

    Well I shall keep you in my prayers Helen, God bless you.

    Hi Daniel

    Thankyou for sharing so much with me.  I have also noticed that the demon can make me say something that does not come from me.  My thoughts can also be affected.  I dont know if its the illness or the clopicsol but I am unable to concentrate and remember names.  I think its also frying my brains.  Sometimes if someone explais something technical to me it feels asif the understanding of the concept simply wont go into my brain. 

    My story is somewhat different to yours.  I have never taken drugs.  My ex husband a pilot was very evil.  While we were married he often said to me that he was going to drive me to insanity and then take the children. And thats what he did.  He tortured me emotionally and abused me physically untill there was very little of me left.  He is a very influential man and bribed my attorney not to help me so I walked out empty handed in my divorce. He had me abducted and beaten up and locked up in a cell with rats and cockroaches. He succeeded in what he wanted to do. In 2002 he broke down a door and entered our home with a socialworker and police and with a invalid order from a court that had no jurisdiction in the town where I was staying.

    It took years of attempts to get my children back. Eventually I was taken to an institution and left there for 3 months.

     

    Now I have a new life, I work but its diffycult. 

     

      I am also softhearted and a born again believer. Please contact me at btroux@absamail.co.za

    Hello Helen,

     

    I hope you had a happy holiday.

     

    I know a number of people whose voices centered around their faith, who "heard" scriptures, and so on.

     

    A lot of people who have schizophrenia are also Christian and their faith can see them through the dark periods.

     

    I wish you the best in your recovery.  I was on an older, cheaper medication for 20 years and it worked well until this past April.

     

    You are wise to stay on the medication.

     

    God bless,

    Chris

    Hi Chris, I am a paranoid schrizophenic but I have been stable for the last 3 years. I find that if i concentrate on the voice it suddenly makes an comment.  This comment is usually a mocking one. I am struggling with my memory and concentration and it is diffycult to function in my work.  I know that through the illness the devil finds an opening but i resist it.  The medication has helped in a large extent to minimize the voices. I sometimes struggle to sleep.  I take largactil and an clopicsol injection.

     

    Yes, I had a lovely holiday with my daughter who is 15 years old.  I lost both my children to my ex when I became sick.

     

    I have read that the voices can be of an upper level or a lower level.  I think that means that they can come from either God or Satan.  I think with schizophrenia they are more of a negative nature and evil, mocking taunting or telling the individual to commit an act of an evil nature.

    When eleven, I started seeing the devil riding on a whirlwind trying to sweep me up into his powerful control.  I would have to lie down to keep from falling it made me so dizzy.  Over time, the whirlwind stopped and I rarely had visuals of the devil, but I continued to hear his voice telling me I would have to pay for my sins.  Because I was a child, an dfrom a Christian family, I thought it was shameful to admit I was conversing with the devil.


    I actually didn't tell anyone about this until I was 37, at which time I was started on antipsychotics.  When I tried Zyprexa, the voices and the devil went away and now only very rarely do they return.  If Zyprexa was able to "exorcise" the demons, it seems to me that that would indicate the voices could not have actually been the Devil talking to me.  Satan would not stop talking because of some medication.

    And if I don't take the meds for a few days or weeks, the voices come back.

  4. You cannot be a Christian and schizophrenic at the same time
    Charlotte Creamer
    Saturday, March 22, 2008 at 07:12 PM

    By the very definition of "Christian" -- which is, that the spirit of God is with you -- there is no way that a spiritual illness like schizophrenia can have any hold on you. God's spirit is way stronger than every demon in hell combined, and the very fact of God's presence in you would preclude demonic presence. Demons can't take hold of a Christian's spirit because God won't let them. So you can't be a Christian and have a spiritual illness like schizophrenia at the same time. Remember Jesus' encounters with demons in the Bible (where the demons were tormenting people with what we today misinterpret as "mental illness")? Jesus simply shows up, and the demons bow down in total subjugation before him -- because the spirit of God is with him, just as the spirit of God is with all true Christians. And Jesus doesn't need "holy water" or crucifixes to exorcise the malevolent spirits -- he simply tells them to go. And they do.

     

    So if you REALLY want to be healed (and not just be a life-long drug addict with your meds) then ask God to help you. Ask him from your heart, not from you mouth. He'll probably ask you to forgive everyone who's hurt you, because that's the condition of God's mercy -- he will forgive us our sins to the same extent and at the same time we forgive those who've sinned against us. God's forgiveness results in God's healing you in Christian conversion. If you want to be healed, TRULY healed, it's up to you. Just ask God's help. And take his advice. He loves you. And he's waiting to help you. But he won't force you. Again -- it's up to you.

     

    I speak as someone who was delivered from demons 10 years ago. In a split second, I went from being a self-professed lifelong atheist to being a child of God and a disciple of Jesus, simply by the power of God's spirit exorcising the spiritual entities I wouldn't even admit had taken hold of me.

     

    God can heal you, too. Just ask him.

    These are usually sadistic people that are defined by some philosofers as existential failures. These are people that try to intimidate you and terrorise you every single minute of your life. Think of them as crybaby's because they are. Don't think of them as devils this could be percieved as a compliment by their regressive mindsets.

    Try to stay awake during the night. Meditate and sleep at least five hours but not much more. This would mean that they are in control of your emotional state, but you will be in control of their lives.  Use affirmations and stay or become a virtuous human being.

    Personaly I believe that I'm "the Awakening spirit" since they don't have control when it comes down to sleeping. The will still fight you every single day, but the fact is their impotence will be obviously unobscured. Once again they sleep when you sleep unless you sleep to  many hours every day. 

     

    You are the dominant factor in their lives. Believe, because this is good advice. They calmed down in my live.

  6. Hearing voices
    Prophetess
    Thursday, May 15, 2008 at 05:32 AM

    Yes, hearing voices, is  Satan. We all have weaknesses and Satan plays on them. It may be hearing voices or just a born-worrier.   It is absolutely 100% of  the devil. One thing to remember all of you, who has problems in the mind.  I can promise you;  that it is not you that's crazy,  it is Satan driving you mad. Or trying to drive you mad. Sometimes he succeeds.>>>Jesus however, defeated Satan at the cross. This means that now that you are saved you have the living God to help you to defeat the devil. However, it does not mean that your life will be a bed of roses.  Praise God.
