[QUOTE="Otto von Bismark, post: 558848, member: 12905"] Yes, thinking of you here. My son heard voices while on a particular medication. He is afraid of having that happen again, as it was frightening. Since that time -- about a year ago -- we have been called to his school because they have found him talking to himself. We see it fairly often at home, too, but only when he is alone and does not think we are watching. He said he is just "talking out loud" but it looks like he is having conversations with someone. Scary. We are waiting for a neuro appointment, as he has not been able to tolerate psychiatric medications at all -- makes him hallucinate more, he says. I can tell you to ask a lot of questions to the docs you see....the first thing three docs wanted to do was put him on antipsychotics....before they even did testing. Also, I second the person who mentioned anxiety....after it happened the first time -- which was a horrific screaming, he said, my son was so afraid of it happening again, that he walked around expecting it to happen, and that made him anxious. It also helped when we talked in depth about everything -- every sound he heard, if he saw anything, what he was doing when he heard, how it made him feel, what he did after. Talking about it in detail made him feel better. I hope it goes well for you guys. [/QUOTE]
