I still cant think. I think ill be better if I could do it… sometimes I cant find the sens of what the others are saying. I cant analyse, don’t have a lot of ideas… this never went away with aps-it was even worse on them…
I know that in the deep depressions the same thing can happen. what do you thin,is it a schizo symptom? how to get through this? I try to be active etc,maybe this is the only thing which will help :/…

I have the same problem on and off. I’m on AP’s.
yeah,its tough… ive accepted it,i don’t complexe anymore but its a strange condition though…
I’ve been in that state… still find myself in it a lot actually…
You could focus more on physical reality more so than the words… like watch one of the fantasias or something similarly…
or oppositely you could find an old favorite book that you have already been exposed to and give it a slow thorough reread… building your confidence and break that layer of confusion by finding deeper clarity in something you already know…
beyond that I’m still struggling with it too… before SZ I had clearer thinking and that is my only diagnosis so I’d be inclined to consider a symptom… at least in my case.
Good luck with this… keep us updated…
I’d just say to take a break from words in any way you can if you find that using them is bothering you… go for a walk or get a dog/cat to play with… keep it simple… I think relaxation and escaping the worrying about it might do a lot to make it better… but that is just an assumption… I’m just a fellow schizo… those would be the things I’d try…
I personally like riding my bike.

thanks azley,ive also got to the conclusion to put less pressure on myself… I was the first at college,i was good at the university but ive always had this trouble a little bit… so you say the best is to stay active that’s right? like I said,i try not to complexe on this anymore, I know its a symptom. but I don’t have an opinion on nothing almost :/… so I don’t socialize a lot anymore…

just take a break 
The world will always be waiting for you when you are feeling stronger… is the blessing of being mentally ill…
yeah,ok 
its strange but the aps never didn’t help me for this or for something else… I should recover on myown now ive never lost my mind in fact,ive hadn’t psychotic episodes, I just don’t feel fine for the most of the time. ihave headaches etc but I spent years without thinking and without socializing… I hope I wont lost a lot of years,i am 33 years old already and I ve never had a normal life :(… I didn’t talk a lot since little,strange thing…but I hope it will get better.
so what you do for your better thinking azley exactly? did you have opinions? I think I am just to oppressed so ive forbidden myself once to think and to feel…I even don’t know if I am hetero or bisexual,so that’s it
i am so fed up… I still spent my time at home. I feel weak, I am scared of others,i oppress my feelings in order to control myself now… on the other hand,i am envious of all the people living their lifes easily. and I feel guilt, my mom screams to me that I don’t go out. and this-since 13 years. anyone else who passed his life between 4 walls since 13 years? ohmygod… I am worried that this will never change 
I think it’s the AP’s. I can’t think. My brother was looking at shredders with me. I couldn’t think one thought. I had to get him to think so I could end up buying one. And they’re going to let me vote for president??? Yet I have a good idea of who I want to vote for - by sifting through what various other people have said and my reactions. It’s a crazy world.
pob darling,i don’t take myaps since 24 days already… otherwise my pdoc was saying thatmy brain is occupied with paranoid thoughts mostly, maybe this is a reason… I lived in fear,selfhatred and suicidal for years, maybe this marks a brain :(…
what to do against it? I am also all alone,just have my mon-i don’t see anybody else from years…try to focus on the reality? what you do for this? me to,i don’t know what political preferences I have and a lot of other things like that…
@Anna10 I worry about you and what will happen to you when your mom passes on, then what will you do and where will you go? You had such a rough upbringing, maybe it is ptsd…Maybe the medicine doesn’t help you but if so what will? Guess I’d just like to see you happy and stable. I don’t have much room to talk, I’m still trying to be happy.
I have problems thinking straight some times, I had more problems when I was in college. I couldn’t focus, and the voices were out of control.
The only person I have to lean on is my partner.
As a child, I was supposedly bright or very bright, depending on who was judging.
As a schizophrenic, I can not do hard thinking without losing it. For example, I learned a lot of astrology, and when I start thinking too much about a chart I’m looking at, I go crazy.

nanny,at a time for longtime I was terrorized by this idea of what could happen to my mom. so I try to be less anguished already…I was too dependant on her,too attached,it wasn’t good either… I live in the same building as her but in my own apartment… I guess ill be just more lonely than I am now but what to do? I still wanna live besides the fact that I am still depressed.
jayster, I am sure you were brighter than me wow I was quite quiet as a girl, even my mom thinks sometimes still that I had some autistic features…I was quiet and a good child and my father was very insisting on the education so I should have been a good collegian an a student… I was the best in French and literature and algebra but in physics and geometry for example I wasn’t that good. probably I had always some troubles :(… I just know that I was on pressure to bring good notes at home…probably this is the real unhappiness… now I forgot almost everything but probably I could live like that also…
but for the every day life its hard to cant think,or analyse,or take opinions,or make jokes- I remain quiet for the most of the time. I talk about somethings but I still have the impression that I don’t believe in what I am saying. but probably with the habit, it will come no?
take care people
