For me the major turning point was receiving ECT treatments for my sz. Once the positive symptoms stopped I could work on changing my life for the better. The negative symptoms are the hardest to fight but I’m making headway. It’s a fight every day but I love my life.

Herd mentality - pretending to subscribe to what the herd subscribe to.
For some of us it’s impossible to not allow our free spirit to shine through.
Best example I can give is working some place where 90% of your colleagues subscribe to an organized religion and you do not; in turn you find that less of your honest mistakes are overlooked and more suspicion and negative attention is directed your way until you, inevitably, find yourself terminated from employment (indirectly because you simply were not voting for the same team the majority did).
That’s racist…I live in the bible belt…most people know I’m a pagan but they leave me alone…but I do understand faking normie interests to blend in better…
Actually (more appropriately) “fascist” Fascism = (in general use) extreme right-wing, authoritarian, or intolerant views or practices.
But even more to-the-point
"(in general use) extreme right-wing, authoritarian, or intolerant views or practices mostly intolerant of alternative views and practices." heh heh

I suppose I could say the Noble thing, and credit my success to hard work, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and always looking on the positive side of things.
But screw that…it’s really my good looks, rich father and long shlong that has gotten me this far in life.

I don’t know… whatever success I had came mostly from a good estimate of what needed to be done and then doing it. I just wish I would sometimes do a bit more than necessary.

Being a stubborn ■■■■■■■. I was voted the employee the most likely to show up for work the morning after dying given my work habits at last year’s staff X-mas party. That zombie apocalypse everyone worries about? It’s a cinch I’ll be part of it.

Actually the fascists were extreme left wing or in the least centrist. The nazis were the national socialist party. They even were big on the environment thing. The part that everyone usually hates about them is that they believed in eugenics.

Ah, I was just running with Google’s definition.
Either way I’m referring to the type of authoritarian mindsets (most often found among Right-Wingers, Christians and Islamists) that want a say in everyone’s matter and tend to herd together and find underhanded ways to exclude those who choose to live their own lives freely with no concern of what others think of them.
If you pretend to fear insulting that herd’s ego and pretend to subscribe to everything they do, you find yourself getting further faster in the game of life.

lol - it is just as frustrating. ha ha
My failure is because I don’t have enough money for health supplements but I’m also a winner.
When I was younger I created a Physics theory and named it as " Fundamental Theory Of Existence ".
Here it is… [ http://xyis1.blogspot.in/ ].
Now I am healthy because of Medication and Health Supplements and food but not successful
why because I only use health medication once in a while only when I’ve money.
If I have enough money I would eventually/sooner-or-a-little-later become a winner for sure/with-certainty.
Schizophrenics are told and Doctors in general say they are waste of money but my Life proved otherwise. I’m the proof that they work. Only if I had a job.
