I like to think i am special and i was put here for a reason, i hope i will be able to fulfill my full potential but i think that it is limitless and i can only get higher, everyone has a limit but i think these can be exceeded and i can deal with more and more as time goes on and i get use to knew things.
its only possible on my new meds, i found a new freedom, my previous meds stunted my brain and i couldnt get past the chemical labotomy,
whats wrong with feeling that i am special? we are all special are we not? we all have a reason to be here and i believe that, even if you dont know it, you still have a reason for being alive, maybe you just need to realise.
Schizophrenics represent 1% of the general population. The disease is a burden to those who have it. There is nothing special about being mentally ill. Majority of schizophrenics are homeless, live in poverty and are unemployed. Normal people perceive schizophrenics with a certain stigma.
We are special to ourselves, our families and our friends. That’s all we have the energy to care about. I am not particularly special to the man on the street but I do expect him to respect me as I, he.
You are special @daydreamer because you are unique. There is no one else like you in the world. What you contribute to society it is special because you are so unique. Always feel that you are worth something and can contribute much to your society. Take care of yourself.
Your illness doesn’t define who you are. It is part of who you are but isn’t your whole identity. To say that you can’t contribute anything to society because you have a mental illness is negative thinking. You can still contribute even if you are ill.
Schizophrenics are known to be poor, not wealthy. There isn’t even a dozen famous schizophrenics compared to those famous people such as actors, politicians, athletes, businessmen of whom may have cancer. Schizophrenics are a special case where we collect disability money because of the high unemployment rate among us.
We all have alot of potential no matter what is wrong with us. We can even teach others merely by example. We have the power to change lives no matter what is wrong with us.
Yes, I agree. Schizophrenia is a part of me just as being amputated with one leg or bound in a wheelchair is a part of other people’s lives. I don’t know about contributing to society but how I see it is, we still survive, live our lives and continue on as people.
We can live by example. We can still help others in little ways. It doesn’t take much to contribute in small ways. Helping others is an opportunity we have as human beings that nothing else can do. We are unique and special no matter our illness.
the illness can take its toll and people can be in a bad situation but it doesnt mean they are not special imo
we are all worthy in our own way, we all have the right to exist in our own way, its our one fundamental right that we need to uphold, dont be beaten, you are special
