Hey ghost. You certainly have alot on your plate! Try not to be so hard on yourself for freaking out a little. I certainly would be!
As for the voices, it sounds like its from the lack of the anti-psychotic. I don't know the scientific explanation for it, but I truly believe this sort of thing has a physical cause. And going through such big changes would naturally exasperate it. Those voices are saying terrible things because you're so stressed. I have a problem with having awful images come into my head of something tragic happening to my loved ones (usually my 6 year old nephew). It actually makes me cry sometimes. I don't really know the logic of us seeing or hearing awful things like this, I'm sure there is a scientific explanation. Its definitely not because we 'want' these thing to happen. Its just our brains expressing our stress somehow.
You have a whole new world opening up to you. Of course this much change is scary, but think of all the good and exciting things that will come from this. I mean, a great new job with a new start in a new state, you and your girlfriend getting back together, you have the world at your feet! Such exciting possibilities. I hope you get your medication soon, but in the meantime, try your best to just enjoy the moment. We're all routing for you!
