Good News!

Just shot some hoops with Bro. We went to the driving ranges but they were closed. I only read a few meanings into some signs on trucks.

It felt good to get outside again. I’d say I’m only about 10% now into my delusion!

And my wife comes home from the Hospital tomorrow!

It’s coming together…baby steps. :slight_smile:

I’ve burned up most of my vacation leave, so it will be a long stretch over the work year without too many breaks.

It is what it is. Schizophrenia has almost destroyed my life, but I’m coming back at it as hard as I can.

Just had a visit at Mom and Dad’s place.

Didn’t read into anything on the drive over. I think I’m slowly coming back to my old self.

Thanks to all of you for your concern. :slight_smile:

This delusion has taken a heavy toll on my family.

My girls have been at my sister’s place for two weeks…my wife is in a psychiatric ward…my brother has been staying with me for days on end…I’ve missed a lot of work.

I need a slap in the face. I’m the star of my own little family, and that’s good enough for me. I have to focus my attention on my daughters and wife now. I’m tired of chasing shadows…tired of doing a cryptic crossword puzzle with no answers. I’m fed up with the delusion and slowly starting to screw my head on straight.

Somebody else can try and save the World. I just want to hit a bucket of golf balls, and return to my old life.

My delusion is telling me if I just make one move, millions of people will benefit from it. I know this sounds crackers.

However, my family is dead set against it. They feel it will cause a mountain of unnecessary hurt to others and to my own family.

I have no car, phone and I’m not allowed to listen to the radio. This forum is my only outlet.

I’ll decide what to do when I get my freedom back. This should happen over the next couple of days.

Can you tell us more about this move your delusion is wanting you to make?

I feel if I right an old ‘half wrong’, it will unleash an avalanche of goodness all across the World.

I understand that’s crazy talk. But this is my delusion talking.

I feel as if I’m standing on a cliff above the ocean. I can either moonwalk away, or take a leap of faith.

It sounds like you’re starting to get back in touch with reality again. I hope this continues for you. It will be nice to see your wife again. Maybe you can make her some welcome home signs, as a creative outlet.

The Emergency Department gave me a Hospital bracelet the other day.

I haven’t taken it off yet. I’m keeping it on for good luck.
