Does hearing voices mean you have schizophrenia? 🤔
It's important to understand that hearing voices is not always a symptom of a severe mental illness like schizophrenia or psychosis, as has been traditionally thought.
According to the approach of the movement, many people who hear voices are not in psychiatric care, and their experience can be less distressing than that of those who are. The real challenge is not so much the experience of hearing voices itself, but how one copes with them and the support received from the environment (family, friends, community, society, culture, etc.) 🌱
Remember, not all voice-hearing experiences are the same, and we should not rush to label someone just for having this experience.
