Visit the following websites for more information on voice
hearing.
The Hearing Voices Network - www.hearing-voices.org - this
organisation supports voice hearers and campaigns for
their rights. In particular they dislike the term
'schizophrenia'. Some members of the organisation
suggest that it is useful to understand and engage in
dialogue with the voices. Although our model does not
support this view, we greatly respect the work this
organisation is doing to support voice hearers and to
challenge prejudice and conventional perspectives in
mental health.
Schizophrenia.com - www.schizophrenia.com - Many articles
on pre-natal trauma related to schizophrenia, including
tips on pre-natal care to reduce pre-natal trauma
related to schizophrenia.
One in One Hundred - www.oneinonehundred.co.uk - general
information on schizophrenia.
The Royal College of Psychiatrists -
www.rcpsych.ac.uk - this gives a good
overview of the range of symptoms associated with
schizophrenia and a summary of medication often
prescribed. In our view, it does not yet reflect more
recent research that points to prenatal trauma as being
primary in the hearing voices problem.
Mind - www.mind.org.uk - a leading mental
health charity providing guidance and support to people
with a range of mental health challenges.
