Recently went back to my mental health clinic and the doctor there still haves me at BPD. Have been in under a lot of stress lately and has been causing me to be paranoid more and even starting to hear things that are not there but it's usually specific like me hearing my sister or nieces saying mean things although they really do sometimes I might hear them and they can be sleeping or might not be in the home at the time. Sometimes in public I might hear mean voices or sometimes random things but it's typically around certain people or types of people. Has calmed down more due to me back on lithium with my stress levels low and my mind not as speedy. How do you determine when someone is saying something to you or like my sister who will take advantage of it to be immature and toxic. She tends to one of those people who claims I'm faking my illnesses but then says I'm insane or crazy or when it's in convenience to try to get her out of trouble. Should I just ignore my voices and people's comments or this will all go away once my stress levels are lower? And are there ways to tell when your mind is playing tricks?
