Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello thanks for asking from HCM

She has been suspected to have bipolar disorder but the diagnosis was not confirmed. She has coeliac disease and is refusing to follow dietary regimen. Her complaints that she is hearing abnormal voices that are conversing to her. Such voices can occur due to some perceptual disturbances like Hallucination mainly auditory hallucinations. Such symptoms should not be ignored and I would advise you to report to her doctor about such symptoms. These symptoms can occur due to some psychotic episode or may be schizophrenia.

Medicines like antipsychotics as olanzapine, risperidone etc are commonly used in such symptoms. Discuss with her psychiatrist for prescription of drugs.

Thanks, hope this helps you
