I was always was told i was sensitive. And how many artists are szs? i mean really. I know they say we are egocentric and immature but i had a revelation. people only care about people who care about themselves. How many of us can be that self serving honestly. im not talking about not returning calls cause you cant get out of bed or getting jealous for love like a child but actually how many have us walked away from a hurting person truly in need?
We are physiologically predisposed. Either genetics or hormone levels throughout our development.
Has nothing to do with the soul.(they don’t exist)
Now, I do agree with this. I have been diagnosed with sza, though. As, a child, I wanted to be a journalist. My father told me I was too sensitive for that occupation. But, then when I graduated from college; he “forced” me to work as a “prison guard” in a men’s prison. Well; he first tried to get me to work in a women’s prison; but, I refused. Boy, did I endure “hell” after that. I do believe all that contributed to my already established sza that I came down with when I may have been between 3 and 7 years old. Sensitivity is a strong predisposition to "severe and persistant mental illness.

I respectfully disagree. We are souls and spirits who happen to reside in a body.
Schizos should know better than anyone that just because you sense something it doesn’t make it real.
Anyways you can believe whatever you want.
More people will agree with you than me.
Unfortunately only one of us is right. Take care now.
I’m pretty sensitive and pretty schizophrenic. But I wonder if I’m representative of schizophrenics?
I’m a nice man. I’ve met a number of schizophrenics who are a lot nicer than I could ever be! So I’d guess “nice” and “sensitive” are a subset , if anything.
I mean, cause we too many bizarre and violent crimes committed by schizophrenics, right?

Since African Americans in the US are the majority of szs that act ally has to change to suspicion to environmental issues.
Dark skinned Americans see a totally different side of this society. A much harsher one.
I’ve never heard that statistic either.
Are you saying black folk have sensitive souls? Lol.
Nah sz doesn’t discriminate.
I’m not saying that. But if you google it studies have been conducted in the US about which race has the majority of szs. Since that conclusion has been relised there is push back on the genetic front understandably.
There is no single cause of sz. It’s a very complicated illness effecting a very complicated machine(the brain). Each case is vastly different from the next.
Our primitive ass brains haven’t evolved to handle the stresses of the modern world.
Just knowing the population of this planet alone might be enough to drive someone crazy.
So many people. So many thoughts. So many behaviors. So much life and competition.
I would just stick to trying to figure out your own illness. That’s all you really gotta do.

My priority is to get to the bottom of this illness because it permeates ever aspect of my life and I have not been happy since my meds kicked in.
I don’t like meds. Still take them.
Drugs… Drugs are terrible.
If you are implying young drugs did this to me that is inaccurate I was put in special ed in third grade only to be torn out by my mother cause she didn’t want a “retarded” kid but when I became an adult she didn’t want to feed me so she tossed me in a strip club.
I don’t think drugs would do it alone.
How long have you been sz?
8 years now though I have a prior history of hospitalization.
Ignoring the possibility it is just genetic…
For me it was pot/stimulants/hallucinogens…
A â– â– â– â– â– â– up worldview. Aliens/illuminati/God (fuck David Icke)
Sexuality/identity issues (fuck the straight and narrow)
I also was thinking a lot about the potential of telepathy. Trying to talk with my mind and such.
Ahh it’s a fucken mess. Or at least it was. I don’t really think about it anymore.(fine you all win your straights)
As for me though I don’t like labels at all.
Anyways getting personal again.
I do believe there is some element of controversy that is real to it. So I should just shut the â– â– â– â– up and learn to accept the world as it is.
I just don’t know what to believe anymore. Its a twisted world.
Yeah I only believe in what’s in front of me. And I don’t give a ■■■■about standing up for the gays any more.
Still hate how the hetero folk constantly remind them they’re different and they just have to accept that is their life. They all even end up taking to the same judgmental stance as the heteros.
Should be a private thing.
I put myself in a political position where no one would agree with me. It drove me psychotic.
I think my therapist is gay. Does not bother me. I want the world to be happy and prosper. But I guess we all have different ways of rationalizing how that will happen.
