So the voices are temporary right?

Like I have been hearing them for years and shit but it was usually minimal so I thought it was normal but now I'm on meds because they are no longer minimal ever since I found out my best friend died via suicide this week and I went to the ward 

 

But they should eventually go away and everything should go back to normal right like 

 

I keep having to fucking check what's real it's exhausting 

I feel like a loser 

I can't do anything easily 

I'm so damn tired

 

(Edit: this is me expressing my experience and how I feel and has nothing to do with turncoat nor am I judging her)

 

That's not even all of it I'm just embarrassed to discuss everything I'm struggling with. 

 

It's kind of my fault for having a suppressed crush on my best friend despite having a girlfriend and now all the feelings are surfacing

Short/medium answer: your mind has a powerful subconscious process that can detect patterns before an auditory hallucination occurs which acts kind of as an early warning system. However these pathways take time to develop and there is an + or - offset when it comes to errors your conscious mind can make. "a particular form of prefrontal inhibitory control (your brain's process to inhibit thoughts) may allow auditory signals to be relatively functionally autonomous and difficult to control effectively. " 
"Further support for the role of emotions is derived
from links between dissociation and hearing voices. 36
Many studies have also reported a specific association be-
tween hallucinations and childhood trauma, prompting
recent suggestions of a ‘‘2 hit’’ model of AH in which
a combination of cognitive deficit and trauma lead to
a high risk of hallucinations in adulthood."

In other words the voices may reduce/increase in intensity based upon how well you can regulate your emotions and preexisting factors. Sources:

Being comfy reduces the severity, so at least for now focus more on weathering the storm.
