My new therapist complimented me a lot. She said “wow you’ve had a tough life” I say “it’s not over yet”. She says “yeah but you’re doing pretty well now it seems”. She kept saying my sza and struggles are a gift. She says “you have a message to deliver to the world and you can do that message. Just continue with your music. You will be a success one day”. She also said “do you realize you’ve seen more than many 70 year olds [im 27]” i say “well there’s a lot of things they’ve seen I haven’t” she says “but I’m talking the BIGGER picture”.
I’m not posting this to stroke my own ego but because we, as szs, people with psychotic illness, are alike, in we’ve struggled a ton. And we have a message to deliver the world. There are many platforms. Not just music or stuff. But we can change the world! We can make it better for the next generation. And my therapist helped me realize that we have a gift and every human does if they put their mind to taking advantage of that gift they’re given!
