As for Tassie @lokifish I've barely seen/heard about RO. I found about it through a Google search. Also many f2f services have never even heard of RO.

My CM rang back @ Jess1-RO we made a plan for tonight. Also in the outpatient appointment I've been given extra meds to try to calm things down until my psychiatrist returns from leave.

Things are really hard atm. I'm trying distractions and waiting for my CM to call. Might do some colouring if the voices will let me. Any other hints would be great

@Jess1-RO it's also helped me bringing this thread back to life. I had forgotten some of the strategies and I was caught up in the delusions associated with my voices and feeling stuck. And if this helps other people by reviving this thread I'm very glad about that.

I hope the distraction helps @annabethxchase You should totally post some of your colouring in the colouring thread. (If you want I can find it and revive it for you, I've been meaning to that myself)

Watch YouTube or Netflix - engaging your senses can help, especially humourous things. Keep busy - put as much attention as you can into what you are doing and it can help to focus on something other than what they are saying. Do puzzles/ hard mind consuming games or something (eg count back from 1000 by 7) - consuming you're focus and not giving the voices space Hugs and spending time with loved ones - just a reminder that you are loved, you matter and that people care about you.

@annabethxchase I'm sorry youre going through this, but you're so strong and even if it does feel like it you're doing an amazing job. I hope your day gets better. I totally get the voices and figures thing it's so hard to deal with. What's your strategies on coping with that.

I'm so fucking angry. I turn up to ED asking for help and the psych reg just says it's all in my head, the aliens aren't real, I'm not going to hurt myself and they can't help me.

@linkinpark13 it was my usual work out. I have an exercise regime that I do 3 days a week. Everyone says it releases endorphins but I just don't feel it. Now I'm trying to watch Netflix but the voices are being re loud.

I've been trying my strategies (music, Netflix, Xbox, computer, magic) but none if it is helping. I feel like I have to give in.

@litgym it's a good explanation because it's what happens with you. For me I prefer to call it perceptual disturbances rather than hallucinations because like litgym they are so real to me. I see and talk with strange members of an alien species that exists as pure energy and float around the universe. I'm lucky to have both positive and negative aliens. The bad however hurt me a bit like what happens with litgym or they manipulate the world around me or the people close to me to hurt me. It can get quite confusing.

@litgym how have you managed them in the past. I'll find this thread I made a couple years back regarding voices and stuff it has a lot of techniques on how to cope with perceptual disturbances
