Schizofrenia

been paranoid all my life. have strong phobias and obsessions.. dun remember how it's called

I have to log out now. But, BE, keep talking to someone. It helps me a lot.

i know i need help dude!!... i've recieve help... i have to take like 11 or 13 different kinds of pills each day, they are so many that i've lost track of what is each one. i recieve therapy once a week. i've been locked and left isolated in metan clinics SO many times. i was locked in one like two or three weeks ago. 🙁

see ya naz and thank you

I know this is gonna sound weird, you ever try meditating?

never...

sometime it's hard to still my mind, you know what i mean???

i'm sorry BE. i think everyone's right. you need some help.

I do. Like I said, I've been there before, never that serious, but still there. Wish I knew what to say, cuz it seems like your mind is fond of working against you 😬

my mind likes to play tricks on me, all the time

i know my life suck, but i dont complain all the time, i just live my life one step at the time. my daughter is of alot of help.

i've had all this problems before i even i was born

thank you all who post here , for their words and time 😉

i dont beleive u.

???why not???

ok well if you checked yourself in before and that didnt work i think you should try someting different like spearhead said maybe you should try meditating...or...i know this may sound cruel and i'm being totally serious but did you ever try shock therapy?

my mom want the shock therapy buy the rest of the family wont let her (lucky)

Shock therapy!!??!! NEVER!!!! Trust me on this one... as a recovering schizophrenic (we're never cured, always recovering...) I can tell you that ect is the last resort of the psychiatrist who is at his wits end.... it doesn't wok, and can make things worse... its usually suggested by the same people who say "Have you thought about a lobotomy..." just learn to say no to the voices... every morning and evening, tell yourself that you are strong, even if you don't believe it... it will get better...

BE, ever see A Beautiful Mind? Not only is it a good math movie, but John Nash suffers from Schizofrenia. It's a pretty cool movie. His wasn't as bad, but he did believe that there were hidden messages in magizens about a nuclear bomb. Do get help, not only for yourself, but for all those you love.

Actually, Spear has a point. I meditate occasionally, it really helps when I'm feeling stressed out and crap. I don't know that it would help with a serious problem, but it's worth a try. You don't have to try to quiet your mind, just sit down in a nice quiet place, and "listen" to your mind. Don't try to change what's there, just be aware of it. Ask yourself, how are you feeling, what's going on in your mind, what does your body itself feel like, etc etc. Like I said, I'm not sure how far it would go to help somebody like you, but it's worth a try.

And yeah, if you haven't seen A Beautiful Mind... The guy tried all the medication that was out there, eventually he just quit because he figured the problems with the medication outweighed the benefits of taking it. Then he just... ignored the things he kept seeing. Seems pretty hard to do though...

BE I am 13 fixin to be 14 and I am kinda like you I see people when I am alone in the house. I even talk to them. I sometimes hear voices when no one is around. It is really creepy. My mom got this email that asks a question. The only people who got the answer right were people in a mental hospital. My mom got the answer wrong but I got it right. The qeustion has a story with it and goes a little something like this: A woman went to her mother's funeral when she sees the man of her dreams. After the funeral she talks to that man. When she got home she realized that she forgot to get his phone #. So she got scared that she won't see him again. The next week or so the woman kills her sister.

Question: Why did the woman kill her sister?

Sorry to hear that dude. My second cousin has schizophrenia quite badly - it has NOT been a pleasant life for him! At the age of sixty he is still totally incapacitated. Better let your parents or guardians know that you are having a troublesome time at the moment.

Oops, sorry man I hadn't checked your age in your profile 😮 Didn't mean to sound condescending or anything.
