Post Guidelines (Work-In-Progress - 8/10/2022):

Content warnings are required in post titles if discussing topics that could potentially be triggering, please use common sense and best judgement for this.
Use title tags if possible to help people know what you are posting about (Example: [Venting], [Advice Needed], [Resource], [Discussion], etc.).
If you are posting information to help others, please try to make sure it is evidence-based treatment; homeopathic/naturopathic treatment and spiritual guidance is absolutely fine, within reason, but please note this in the title or body of the post.

General Community Rules (Work-In-Progress - 8/10/2022):

I will tone police, if you are being an ass, i will shut you down. I will not allow a breakdown of decorum in this support focused community. If you want to scream about how terrible psychiatry is or shit talk anti-psychiatry, find another community for that. or make a new one.
This is a positive and supportive place, treat others like you want to be treated, give someone the benefit of the doubt, and help where you can help.

Usual: voices have no meaning, no voice, repetitions of certain phrases, few seconds, Idling. The following are special recent cases that stood out.
Encounter one: unintelligible conversation with an inanimate object (Tomato), thoughts, whispering voice, meaning: sabotage of someone I know, few minutes, Idling.
Encounter two: stapler in right hand, pin in left backhand hand, no memory, Idling.
Encounter three: conversation with mirror(?) reflection(?), rhythmic beat tapping with nails, nonsensical, meaning: fight(?), few minutes, Idling.
Encounter four: unintelligible voices, a need for isolation, emotional weight with no link, 2 days, Idling.
Recent encounter: unintelligible voices, attempts at detaching fingernails, few seconds, Reading a book.

I feel like help is an illusion.
