I know what you mean. I have also seen my fair share of shrinks and psychologists who just were not for me. I personally think that having a good relationship with your mental health provider is crucial to getting better.
As far as lessening the voices / getting out more, I so understand how "What do you do?" can be a dreaded question. It's definitely not my favorite question. Especially when I didn't have a job. Maybe think of something to say ahead of time, like, I'm between jobs. And remember that the world isn't focusing on you. Plus, a lot of people are in that boat now, with the economy the way it is.
Lastly, are there any mental health organizations in your area? If so, they my provide a more comfortable way for you to get out of the house. Good luck, you can do it.
