You speak as if your mind is a different person…your mind is part of you.

So is a broken arm, but its not helping you much.

What do you propose to do?

That is fine, but you now have to take ownership of your mind.

Your mind is the way you chose to react and respond to the world. Therefore it needs the attention from within imo.

Good luck

I think maybe Briantex is saying that your illness does not define you.

I personally find that this illness is a big part of my life since I have to make all decisions based on if it increases my risk of relapse.

Sz changed my personality for the worse. It made me another person, apathetic, not smart and heartless.

Our brain can be hard to live with at times. There are different parts of the brain that have different wishes for our behaviour. That’s why we often can find conflict of interest in our own minds.

A classic example is giving into doing something sexually amoral, even if it’s just a thought, when there is another part of the brain that is telling you that it is wrong and ultimatly bad for you.

It’s really hard to always go for the good choices. The cartoons are true, it’s like we go through life with a devil on one shoulder and a angel on the other whispering into our ears. But it is possible to ignore the bad thoughts, it just takes a lot of practice and a dose of willpower.

Did something happen to you? Did you get trauma when your gf left you? I mean is it just the drugs chaining you to the bed or are you struggling with something emotional?

I got really damadged when my gf left. I thought I was through with it, but it took many many years to make it really fade away. It hurts when you have a lot of history together and the person you are with decides you are not worth knowing anymore despite all you have been through together…

No, its the sz that removed my emotions and empathy, motivation, energy, enthusiasm, intelligence, caused anhedonia and asociality.

At least I am better now than when on Abilify which caused addictions and hypersexuality.
