14 yr old hearing a voice

by real1992, Feb 20, 2009 05:56PM
Hi my son is 14. He has been on Prozac 20mg for over a yr. He mentioned about 3 wks ago that he was hearing a voice but could not tell me what it said. A few days ago he told me this again. He said the voice sounds like a demon and it is telling him to hurt himself and others. I took him to a mental health ER on Wed. He saw a nurse, a therrapist and a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist upped his Prozac to 40mg. He also said that males at this age who have depression symptoms sometimes experience this. He started the 40mg Prozac on Thurs. morning and says the voices are more frequent. Does any one have any suggestions or know how long we should wait for the Prozac to "work". He has an appointment with a therapist on Wed.

I know this may sounds a little crazy but have you thought of seeking out a demonologist?  If not that then maybe someone in that type of field like a medium?  I've heard that you can place cross under the individuals bed without thier knowledge and perhaps judge by their reaction.  If they don't notice it at all or don't seem bothered while in their bed then you could maybe rule out an actual demon.  I know it may sound crazy but what could it hurt, good luck.

As a Christian I do believe in angels and demons. I know we have to be careful not to be "seeing demons under every bush" but I do believe there's a spiritual world out there that most of don't truly understand. I can't say I've ever heard of a demonologist and we don't want to scare the kid but you can even pray for him without him knowing it. Prayer certainly can't hurt and maybe you could do that as well as seeing about adjusting his meds or trying a new medication? Just a few things to think about.
My daughter had this happen when she was around his age but she had gotten into some dark things, too, so I do believe it was more spiritual with her. She had to get to the place of letting God back into her life and turning away from the dark things.
Like I said, that's just one scenario. It's possible that he just needs to adjust his meds or try something different. I wish you both the best. I hope he can get some relief soon. God bless.
