Do you think sz make you unique ?
yes thats why i named myself this
It makes my life â– â– â– â– with negative symptoms so no, I am not unique.
But you could be unique with negs
Does dying during birth make you unique?
You are not dead are you ?
I think there’s something unique about people with schizophrenia, but I can’t put my finger on what it is.
Maybe we are more noble, hm I dunno.
It doesn’t make me unique, but it does make me distinctive.
No. But both are relatively rare in industrialized countries and both have horrible outcomes.
We’re all unique in much more important ways than our illnesses.
A lot of things are rare… millionaire are also rare
The point is that defining your uniqueness with an illness is not a good way to boost your self-esteem. Illnesses are bad, and if simply having them makes us unique, then it’s not in a good way. Focus on your positive qualities, and don’t think of your illness as one of them. I’m sure you’ve learned a lot about life from having this illness, as we all learn from hardships (if we’re open to it). You could focus on that.
Sza used to make me unique because no one understood me and what I was going through. Except maybe my doctors. Anyway, I am no longer unique. Now, I am more like everybody else.
I thought I was unique… until I found this forum
I don’t know. Maybe. People seem to think I’m interesting and that the way I approach life is interesting. How much of that is my disease and how much is my personality? I don’t know. I can’t really tell where one ends and the other begins.
I’m very unique.
Just like everyone else.
It makes me unique, but not in a good way. Overcoming it would be ideal.
I think it does make us unique…prolly sounds crazy but I somehow feel like we are all CONNECTED in some sort of way …: I feel that we all Have/see/feel a deeper meaning to things going around us. I feel like I am a participate in this world but refuse to be caught up in it. Kinda like being on the outside, looking in but into a deeper realm. I think there is really something behind all that sickness/mental illness …or so they call it… I think we are gifted…I think we are cursed but I think we are blessed…I feel like I am not blind like some… I am not asleep … I am woke… I am alert …I am wise …
I refuse to settle for the basic defaulted mental operating system installed by upbringings & a social conditioning … I challenge myself to embark on a higher level… a higher understanding… I don’t want to just understand I want to OVERSTAND… typo
I get the feeling that “we are all connected”, but it’s pretty overwhelming feeling it 24/7. The thought broadcasting phenomenon can be stopped with the right medication though, thankfully. NMDA antagonists like Haldol or Abilify are the key.
I feel that we have a purpose … That there is a method behind all this madness …
Ultimately, you are the master of your destiny, thanks to free will.
