Voices are bad

I've been in hospital for a while now and it has taken me a long time to earn eight hours leave which is what I have today. Unfortunately it is going badly because of the voices - they are really quite loud and demanding today and it is making me stressed. I just want them to stop and go away but they won't. I want my medication to work because it feels like I am stuck in a nightmare.
My voices are really getting to me today. Because I recently had an argument with my mum they keep saying that she hates me and I find it very upsetting. There is also one which keeps saying that it knows everything that has been and everything that will be and that it will kill me. It's making me feel really low and suicidal.

It's great that you're doing well enough to have leave yesterday, but sorry to hear your voices were bad. That sounds really scary, and it must be frustrating that they've gotten in the way of your leave day.
Voice Collective have a really good website if you've not seen it before - including a set of coping strategies; places to go for help; and Voice Collective Groups.
If you can, it might be really helpful to try and talk to your Mum and see if you can get things feeling a bit better with her. That will hopefully give the voices less to work with, and should make you feel better anyway.
Hope things turned out OK
