BackgroundAuditory Verbal Hallucinations (AVH) are a hallmark of psychosis, but affect many other clinical populations. Patients’ understanding and self-management of AVH may differ between diagnostic groups, change over time, and influence clinical outcomes. This study aimed to explore patients’ understanding and self-management of AVH in a young adult clinical population.Methods35 participants were purposively sampled from a youth mental health service. Participants completed diary and photo-elicitation tasks, and the resulting materials were discussed at in-depth interviews. Themes were derived using conventional content analysis.ResultsThree themes emerged. (1) Searching for answers, forming identities – voice-hearers sought to explain their experiences, resulting in the construction of identities for voices and themselves. Explanations were drawn from participants’ life-stories and belief-systems. (2) Coping goals – patients’ self-management strategies were diverse, reflecting the diverse negative experience of AVH, e.g. as distressing sounds, overwhelming emotions, or as threats to agency. (3) Outlook – participants formed an overall outlook on their life with AVH. Resignation and hopelessness in connection with disabling AVH are contrasted with “acceptance” or integration, described as positive, ideal, or mature.DiscussionTrans-diagnostic commonalities in understanding and self-management of AVH are highlighted. These offer targets for individual therapies and further research.
