Living with the voices
Rosane de Albuquerque Costa, Wanderson R Nepomuceno, Danielle C F Da Silva
This book is born from two perspectives: on the one hand, the desire to be able to offer psychotic listeners a less invasive and more effective treatment for auditory hallucinations. Our aim is to provide readers with a history of psychiatry, its evolution and how some treatments were even cruel. Today, with advances in medication, it is possible to care for a voice hearer in a more humane way with the use of specific medication. However, even with these advances, we know that psychosocial care is just as important as medication. Therefore, we present the results of a group of psychotic voice hearers who benefited greatly from the self-help group. The other perspective has to do with the fact that many people hear voices and are not psychotic. They can live with their voices very well. We believe that the experience of hearing voices and living with them without the use of medication can help us understand how psychotics can find ways to lead their lives productively even when hearing voices. Happy reading.
