Hearing voices (hallucinations) is a symptom of schizophrenia or related psychotic disorders. These voices are not “God’s voice,” but part of the illness. It is important to continue treatment and follow-up closely with your psychiatrist, as medicines sometimes need adjustment or combination for better control. Do not stop or change medicines on your own.
Next Steps
• Meet your psychiatrist soon and inform them that voices are persisting despite current medications.
• Carry your current prescriptions and past treatment records.
• Ask about the possibility of dose adjustment, or additional supportive therapy.
• Ensure regular follow-up and do not miss doses.
• If voices tell you to harm yourself or others, or if distress becomes severe, seek emergency help immediately.
Health Tips
• Stick to the same doctor for consistent follow-up, as frequent changes can delay improvement.
• Take medicines at the same time daily.
• Avoid alcohol, drugs, and sleep deprivation, as they can worsen symptoms.
• Recovery takes time — be patient and maintain hope.

That’s unfortunate. There might need to be some changes. However, a detailed discussion in the form of a consultation will be required to review the situation.

Hearing voices despite taking medication means your condition is still active and needs closer monitoring. These voices are a most likely symptom of illness.Sometimes, medicines need adjustment or a different combination to work better.
Next Steps
• Please visit your psychiatrist soon to review your treatment and adjust medicines if needed.
• Take medications exactly as prescribed—do not change or stop them on your own.
• If voices become commanding, distressing, or if you feel unsafe, seek urgent medical help immediately.
Health Tips
• Keep a daily record of when the voices are stronger and share this with your doctor.
• Maintain a regular sleep routine, avoid alcohol or drugs, and continue healthy coping practices.
• Involve a trusted family member so they can support you in follow-ups and medication monitoring.
