How can schizofrenia get cured? I hate those "voices", it sucks me to my subconscious.

Dear 2muchworry, there is no cure for SZ. Maintenence is best to cope.. ..meds, therapy, diet, excerise, sleep.

The scientists do not how SZ starts. I believe my SZ is genetic, abuse as a child, and drugs.

As far as voices go, try not to listen to them, push them out of your mind. I have heard voices for many years and cope quite well with them.

If you are unmedicated, you must find away to get meds. I understand you have little money.

You are not a failure. This illness is not your fault.

I wish you the best.

Dave

Hello 2muchworry,

Please, I want you to take heart and know that people with schizophrenia can have good lives.  The SZ often strikes when we are young [I was diagnosed when I was 22 years old] and we're just starting out.  Understand that, in your twenties, you have your life ahead of you and it's too early to rule out progess, growth or change for yourself.  Recovery is a process, and it can be slow, yet it possible to recover to the best of your ability.  Refrain from setting impossible standards you can't achieve.  Expect a better tomorrow in a realistic way.  Keep the faith and the hope that it will get better. 

Like Dave said, if you can't afford medication, there are programs that can assist you with payment for drugs.  Try www.pparx.org to get free or low cost access to SZ meds.

One thing I did when I first started out in recovery was a technique called "act as if" or fake it til you make it in slang terms.  Even when I didn't believe there was an end in sight or that there would be relief from my illness, I chose to believe I could have a better life.  I "acted as if" I could do things that were beyond my reach instead of telling myself I couldn't do them.

Again, as I said, there is hope.  Things won't turn around in a week, a couple of months, or a year.  They will turn around in their own time.  You are Christian so your faith could ultimately carry you through.

I wish for you all the best.

Regards,

Christina

People say Joan of Arc was schizophrenic. She heards gods voice and was able to lead france to victory through God's guidance. I have voices in my head. I know there is no cure. I also know however right from wrong. There is no vindication to harm another person. Trust yourself before you trust the voices. Surely the devil could call himself by gods name with the intent of doing ill. Trust yourself first. 

how ever we all got to be on this earth being who we are, humans half the worlds population believes we were created by 'god' but the true explanation to why some of us gets schizofrenia directed especialy to those which gets theirs thrue trauma and severe child hoods, is only to get their 'fill of life' it adds to the emptyness, it fills what they couldn't have, where it made their perspective on this life quite depressing 'god' gave these people an alternitive, a chance at experiencing the true wonder of being alive, but because they can't experience the romance the happiness, we have to vere off to a different style, by believing we are something special, and when we meet other people like ourselves we find the brethren, something in which we believe is higher, like having super powers super high iq's special talents for certain things, all those things fills the blackness, but somehow all the people who is perfectly normal, with no worries at all, think that we are the lost, the worthless, why must having dreams or trying to be special a form of psychosis, which all the normal people fail to realise it's the schizofrenics who are the greatest music artists, poets, painters, comedians, actors this is because of their supreme difference in their perspective upon what all this is, the normal people cannot reach the hieght of creativity in which the "schizos" can, because of their ultimate level of output which they can do because they are the way which they are, so please, stop crushing the schizo's like they're in psychosis, that there's no cure for them, that they are the worthless outsiders, you people are cruel, very very cruel, schizofrenia can be cured, all it takes is love and affection, and a freedom, and a fill at which we always saw our neighbours have, how all other people live so happily but we can't have that, it's hart braking, it's supression, and depression, it's hard stuff, maby most of them has never experienced the emoticons we go thrue, that ultimate pain, schizofrenics, do have something special, it's the freedom of being able to master any task, any artwork, any study, because of their so called "schizoprenia" it is driven by it, why must people make it such an awful serious thing which it's not, what one needs is what's missing, the black holes in their minds, love will fix them, the affection, i cry alot at why this world has to be so cruel and cold to people like me, the other day i cried tears of joy, when a female friend of mine gave me support at my music producing, it's it which i can't have because of my awful living condition this isolation, i'm trying to escape this hole by becoming a star, and i only have ancient equipment, my eyes are wet of mild tears as i type this, at the same time, the art work makes me feel like i am something, the way the world goes on about schizofrenics burns me right in the core of my emoticons, raising my depression, the cure for it is hugs and love, and support, not drugs, if the cause didn't occur from drugs then the cure doesn't have to be drugs, because it's threw constant psychological supression, now by reversing it will definetly reverse the schizofrenia, but i know a schizofrenic which in my theory became like that thrue too much queen like treatment when she grew up :? so she became too idle, so automatically the mind will create things to cause excitement, but now it's like she's the depressive type schizo, she's allright, and very wealthy, but for her to really escape her type of schizofrenia she will have to experience what it's like to have to do things all by herself, and to have it hard, but she's fine the way she is, 
but i dunno, my one friend said i have schizofrenia, i don't hear voices or see things, maby i've got bipolar :? but i don't understand why they mix up the symptoms like that :? i'm just not aggresive. it's kinda stuff like my theories above :? or is there "no hope for the schizo's"
i have another theory :? for the people who hear voices of two voices arguing, that's caused threw years of parents screaming and shouting at each other, because by knowing you can't really do anything about it, you can only sit there, and 'hear' it, then when grown up, it it plays in the minds of the poor victims, because it's seriously an ill experience, it's saddening and very irritating, maby creating a cd which will talk about love and understanding of a happy relationship will cure that, "i love you, i love you more sweety" it's reversing the cause and effect, but then again one can't have too much of it, because then again it'll go the other way, i just hope all this can help, and i'd like to remain anonymous
