A new recovering strategy

Health and Recovery
1

Ok… So … I’m trying a new strategy out for me. I truly have never tried this yet, but been thinking about it. We are told we have a sz and our brains are creating the delusions and thoughts. The problem is that we are not sure about what is told to us. So when you hear a voice, you think, I can’t have this voice created by my own mind. And yet, most people hear voices too. The difference between healthy people and us mostly is that our symptoms are a lot heavier. But otherwise we all may have pretty much like the same kind of symtoms.

I started a thread many months ago about God related stuff. I still think there was something wise about that thread. Have you also been having this thought how God should know your thoughts? I don’t want to argue about this, but lots of us think how our mind is not in privacy. Then back to this theme again…

I have learned today that there’s one important idea I want to try out. Because nobody likes to have too much trouble to learn, i.e. we hate to have ridiculously big book teaching to be cured - I thought: Ok, then there’s only few things maximum I will apply/think.

  1. I am having a private mind and my delusions happen because I am a bit paranoid about stuff.
  2. I stay neutral and need to stop pushing myself. Taking it easy and stuff.

So, this is what I’m going to try. I need to accept that my mind is making tricks with me. This is a very important step to take. I have made conspiracy theories about my illness and haven’t give myself a chance to get cured. And if I don’t drop out my beliefs about conspiracy, how can I ever recover??

My sensor to sense privacy needs a vacation. And I can’t hold my cards of possible unusual beliefs for eternity.
There might be hope for me. AND you.

PS, my sz started 13 years ago.

THANKS FOR READING!

so, do you not think you have schizophrenia?

I’ve heard other people say this to me too, that lots of people hear voices,
and there really isn’t anything wrong with it.

Who are these kinds of people, really?
I mean is it from trauma,
homelessness, drugs,
DID, bullying?

My voices were not just a voice here or there,
they were about 12 voices all at the same time.

I think I have a schizophrenia, but I also think that kind of not.
My best bet yet is how I take this all really. I can think I have a chronic disease and represent this “sz race” but I think it’s wiser to have more mellow label of my illness. Sz may launch itself from numerous reasons and propably it’s a sum of all the things you mentioned. I think my plan can be a success - worth to try anyway.

You refer to us as a race, that interests me.

No sz is a disease, we might as well call everyone with down syndrome a subspecies. But really, since a sz can marry another sz and have a normal child that guarantees that we are not a “race”.

Btw anthropologists have come to a consensus that “race” is a social construct and not legitimate science. It is percieved by humans because we need ways to describe the differences we see between different people, that is all. “Race” does not exist.

Have you guys ever thought outside the box? That there’s a possibility that there’s a bigger picture to all this? and that all this that we’re going through is just temporary this short life? deepndark you have your beliefs right? But maybe it’s too much info for some people to take in all at once.
I believe that God really exist and so does Satan (the fallen angel) We were created in God’s image and he knows us better than anyone, even better than we know ourselves. In the very beginning when God made man and woman, Satan who tempted the woman to eat the one thing that God has forbidden them to, the fruit of knowledge of good and evil brought sin to this world, which is why woman endures pain while giving birth while men would endure labor by the sweat of their brow to get food and shelter etc.
Genesis 3. This world where there’s pain and suffering it’s not only for us sz but for the norms and down syndrome and everyone in this world. Sickness and diseases are all apart of it aswell. There are people who are born deformed with missing body parts but are still able to live a normal life. Yeah being sz is not so good but I think our weaknesses is this life can sometimes be our strength, I mean we are battling with our minds here. Our thoughts are what shapes us the way we think is neccessarry to help us make choices right? God gave us freedom of choice. Also good and evil exist aswell. What do you guys think happens when we die here? I believe there’s only 2 options for us in the afterlife. Heaven or Hell.
No matter what choice you make in life no matter which turn you take remember that God always has our best interest in life. God is love and he wants us to be with him. :heart: My brother use to train me to help me loose weight and he’ll always ask “Do you want to live?” and I would always say “Yes! I want to live!” :blue_heart: it’s hard to loose weight argh! But anyways… I wanted to give you guys my perspective in life, Life is like a roller coaster sometimes, and sometimes it’s hard to make the right choices in life but Ive learnt to follow my heart instead of my head.
Peace :green_heart:
