Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I have this voice in my head but not like a kill yourself or a pressuring voice but it repeats a certain word or sentence over and over and over again. I can t stop it no matter what I do. When I try to stop it, it repeats something else. this has been going on about 3 years but it started to get worse about a month ago. Am I mentally ill?
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. This symptom may not be due to schizophrenia and mental illness is a remote possibility unless you treat it properly. Your symptoms are due to hallucination. Do you use any substances which creates hallucination? Hallucination, if not due to substances, is a mental disorder. Understanding it and ignoring the symptoms are best course of treatment. If you become obsessed and anxious about the hallucination, they tend to return with full force. Consult a psychologist for psychotherapy.
If you require more of my services in this regard, please post a direct query and I shall be happy to provide you psychotherapy tips. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
