A normal life will kill a schizophrenic

[Toshiko]

I know it would me

Just doing my job as a housewife and moving away from my family again.
Trying to do too much - too much for me.

today i had an ego head come up from inside my stomach
i used to think this was visual as well when i was unwell
not today but the memory

i had people calling out my thoughts for a couple days now

I thought my flare up of Exzema was me being poisoned by an invading army

and that sort of thing
break through symptoms but closer to the real thing as I’ve been in a long time

I don’t have extreme hallucinations like that but often think people know what I’m thinking. It probably would kill a schizophrenic, I think that’s why they act like you’re on your own.

[Toshiko]

not visual very often for me
that one i thought other people could see it
I get quite a few tactile mixed with non reality

I have that same feeling where it feels like somethings coming out the side of my stomach. I dismiss it and nothing else happens for a good while.

[Toshiko]

it’s not common when i’m not severely ill
i have had stuff i push off to the side in a way…

it’s good you can function with that stuff on and off… horrible though really

[Noise]

I keep fighting for a good life it might not be the most normal but a life can still be good for a schizophrenic

A normal life would be good for me. I would like to own my own boutique and have fashions that people would buy. I would like to eat healthy and exercise and be a size 2 or 4. I would like a social life and go the gym.

[Cynnelise]

Wow stop stealing my ideas! Stop copying me! LOL Just kidding but I want those same things but I’d also be happy being at least a size 6.

I would like to think it would not kill me to try

Whilst on meds

Ft job, own room or flat, maybe bf… Stuffs like that.
If I can achieve that I’ll be content

I really want a bf in the future!!! Or else I will just be a singleton instead

I agree with noise that my life isn’t ever going to be normal but on some days it’s pretty good. I’m as close to normal as I’ll ever get right now. I have a job and close friends and a gym card and I am looking pretty and feeling good. but I have a lot of limitations and setbacks that really depress me. One being the possibility of another episode.

I hate that I’m so dependent on others; aside from that, my life is pretty okay.
