I think I will try to write a SHORT book

I have a lot to say through writing.

Stigma is probably my biggest problem. Because:

Schizophrenia, my Brando delusion, and my “sexuality”(i.e. coming across as a “hornball” whose quiet), all have proved damning out there. (People don’t or can’t talk about these things.)

I hate to reward the public with my story, I don’t feel like they deserve it. But maybe it’ll make them think about their own consciences. Anyway I’m currently thinking of catchy titles… and your input could help! This could be exciting and you should feel some ownership since my back really feels like it’s to the wall and I’m going to attempt to fight stigma.

A famous writer here said you write everyday. Do a page at least. It doesn’t matter if it’s bad or good it’s just getting it done. I’d love to write but i’m a slack ass with a heap of ideas!

Seriously. Just write. Your schizophrenic and a lot of it may only make sense to you. That is a problem. If it makes sense to many then your on a winner and good luck to you.

For you. I’ve no idea of a good title but i’d start with “It’s not me…it’s that other person” if only to add a bit of mystery!

@anon92220549 - people don’t talk about certain things but they may like to read about them. I’m excited about this idea. Although maybe it’s the coffee talking.

I would read your book, and I’m sure other people would. You said you have a blog? Is it on the board?

I just finished a poem in 9 parts with symbols and hints of my symptoms. It’s the first schizophrenic poem in my country

Yes it’s on my profile. There’s no ads so I’m not making any pennies on it!

I took care to delete the entries that no longer represent me, before sharing it here.

The drawback with that title(which I do like) is that people may associate schizophrenia with be over sexualized and that’s obviously not accurate. If they read the darn thing they would know that it only correlated to the Brando thing. He went down in history as liking food and sex. Believe it or not I’m not an expert on him. A former Pdoc told me to take a diet of the mind and that hit home for me.

But I think I will read his autobiography now… it will help me add length to the book bc that’s a concern.

Maybe his feels like TMI with the over sexualization talk. But I’m a caged bird and want to sing. Plus I think I’m innocent and maybe I just never brought people up to speed or was comprehensive enough.
