Have you told....: ...Anybody that you tried to commit suicide 3 times? Does your doctor know how bad you are feeling and that you have auditory and visual hallucinations? Did you tell your counselor? They need to know! if they did, they would put you on something instead of of or in addition to the Prozac (fluoxetine) which does not usually help hallucinations. Don't give up! tell them what's wrong! get them to hear you!

1st have a physical exam to know if this is due to an illness. If not, you need medication from a Psychiatrist to stop the hallucinations now because this could get worse if you delay. If you have a Psychiatrist and are not confident see another for a second opinion and a Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy for help.
