Auditory hallucinations in a 16-year-old are usually linked to conditions like: -Schizophrenia (early onset in some cases) -Psychosis (can have different causes) -Severe mood disorders with psychotic features —Your brain is going through something right now, and that’s why you’re hearing these sounds. The medicine is there to help calm it down, but it can take some time to work. Eating well, sleeping properly, and staying calm can also help your brain recover. You’re safe, and we are here with you. –Rx: 1) Ashwagandha lehyam – 1 tsf BD after food 2) Aimil Relaxo Tab – 1 tab HS 3) Aimil Tonic (Amycordial) – 2 tsp BD Diet: Milk, almonds, walnuts; avoid junk & caffeine —Advice: Proper sleep, reduce stress —Continue psychiatric medicines

Take ayuredic Brahmi 1tab daily after food calms mind Shankhpushpi 20ml equal quantity of water improves brain function Saraswatarishta 20ml equal quantity of water for memory & stability Use low dose, after consulting doctor Diet (very important) Give Warm, fresh home food Milk with turmeric at night Almonds (2–3 soaked) Ghee (small amount) Avoid Junk food, cold drinks Excess mobile/late nights

Hello, I understand your concern- this is a sensitive situation especially for 16 year old First, a reality check -Hallucination (especially auditory) are usually part of conditions like Psychosis, or early Schizophrenia. -Medicines like Trifluperazine, Olanzapine, and Aripiprazole are the main treatment -> Food or Ayurveda can support, but cannot replace psychiatric care Effective Ayurvedic support plan 1) Diet- focus on sattvik + nervine nourishing These help stabilize mind and support brain function -warm milk with ghee + turmeric at night -soaked almonds 5-7 peeled -fresh fruits= banana, apple, pomegranate -whole grains= rice, wheat, moong dal -cow ghee small amount daily Avoid strictly -junk food, cold drinks -excess tea, coffee -packaged/fermented foods -very spicy, oily food Food won’t heal hallucination directly, but improves medication tolerance + brain stability Internal medications For mind stabilization -Ksheerbala 101 vaarti oil= 10 drops in warm milk twice daily =helps calm nervous system -Brahmi ghrita= 1/2 tsp morning with warm milk =improves cognition, reduces mental agitation For stress + sleep -Manasmitra vatakam= 1 tab at night =classical for anxiety, hallucination tendency For sleep (important) -Saraswatarishtam= 15ml with water after meals twice daily External therapies -oil massage with ksheerbala oil =reduces vata main imbalance in such condition Lifestyle often overlooked but critical -fixed sleep time before 10:30pm -no mobile/tv before sleep -gentle yoga or walking not intesne -alm environment avoid argument/stress Important safety notes -since no improvement in 2.5 months, psychiatrist follow up is urgent -dose adjustment or medicine change may be needed -watch for side effect of trifluperazine= stiffness, tremors, excessive sleepiness If these appear-> consult immediately Ayurveda + diet= support system Psychiatrist treatment= main treatment Improvement may take weeks to months, not immediate Do follow Hope this might be helpful Thank you
