Hi there.
A few years ago, I was diagnosed with psychosis. I lived with a voice that crawled in my skull like a parasite. It would tell me about my worthlessness, its' wish for me to die, and generally nasty things.
However, recently I've noticed that the voice has stopped. And I don't like it. I miss it, I suppose. It's starting to get to me, to the point where I've started telling myself the things that the voice did. I haven't told anyone, but I think my parents may have noticed my notebook and its' scribblings, among other things.
Is this a symptom? Am I doing something that is expected or am I an anomaly?
Any help is appreciated.

I probably shouldn't post on something I don't know about, but would it be possible for you to get used to not having that voice anymore, it may be the best thing for you if you can just forget about it.

The voice was just a monotonic, robotic voice. Like I said, it was a negative voice and I didn't like it at the time, but now I miss it.
