Hey Ismael, I saw you in the Depression group too, welcome. :) I think a lot of people have more than one 'diagnoses'.. we seem to live in a 'diagnostic' era!

Don't let the 'labels' get you down!.

Hey Zachary, welcome. :) Others like myself here are also not schizophrenic, but supporters of people with schizophrenia and related mind states. You're most welcome.

Hello all!  I must say I 'm not diagnosed with schizophenia, I do though find it very quite interesting.. and i certainly have experienced (i would say) similar happenings.  SO, thanks for letting us join, much love.

Unfortunately schizophrenia has a history in my bloodline, and something a few mediums and palm readers (lol whatever) have said could come out in old age. Some of the problems I’ve grown up with were more around forms of Autism (PDD / ADD) as a solitary and over-imaginative kid dreaming of other worlds and alien messages for earth, which I can talk all about with passion, but even now can’t explain where the information comes from. I wonder how much the psychologists got from our chats, if anything.

 

My interests in geometric shapes can be seen as either intuitive or just a form of obsessive disorder, and it really doesn’t matter to me. I say good madness is worth listening to if it helps us rise to a better understanding, and usually the labelled ‘crazies’ are shut away because their ideas challenge the structure of the psychical world and beliefs we’re raised by.

 

Life is always a challenge to push passed our problems. Even now I still have a bit of the excitability and speech fails, and it takes awhile to prove myself when those screw up first impressions of me. Living with sceptics is easy, because why care what they think? Living with psychic readers is the hard part; I always have to prove to them that I’m not afraid to speak my faith, but also not too bold to admit I may be somewhat schizophrenic.

 

I really think schizophrenia and the hallucinations of other people in the room is something that needs more open attention, rather than being just a part of the condition. I’m sure in many cases these figures are actual people there in spirit. Bipolar just might be the closest form of higher understanding there is.

I've known I was damaged for a great number of years.  I am damaged somewhat because I was an early Indigo (74) when very few understood and my parenting was nearly catastrophic.  But I have recently sought help but I am maintaining the direction and control of the treatment (fortunately).  My malfunctions have impeded my ability to connect with my true center so I decided I was not going to be a victim of my past, or my own skewed perception any longer.  REMEMBER ALL OF US HERE "DAMAGED DOES NOT MEAN BROKEN!!"  We just have a little more difficult time getting out of our own way.

This is not a label/illness I've been burdened/blessed with, but I know many who have, and so I wanted to create this group for them, and all who have an interest personal or otherwise in the subject matter.
