Getting to trust people well enough to call them a friend takes a lot of work. It’s especially hard when you are living with schizophrenia and think everyone is making fun of you.
Schizophrenia is the devil on your shoulder that keeps whispering in your ear and, no matter what you try, the little demon won’t stop. He hasn’t stopped in the almost nine years I’ve lived with the illness, and he’s not about to stop now. He’s just quieted down a bit. I’d call him my companion but that would imply a degree of friendship, and there’s no way in hell I’m the little devil’s friend.
I’ve seen him write about his struggles with schizophrenia before. It’s good to know there are others out there suffering through the same things and managing to overcome.
That was a beautiful story.
My son loves to go to coffee shops.
A good reason to find him a new place in the area he wants to live in…which is full of them.
Thanks…
look at the preface,to see the way that the author suffer from the schizophrenia
1-he does not talking about sickness symptoms,but he talks about his relationship
with the imaginary entities,and describe how they act and behave with him
2-he describes a behavioral activity of a higher personal entities ,and the matter is not
hearing a voices
3- no one can describe a symptoms of disease as they are a whole higher organism,
and this means that the things that so-called hallucination is a kind of higher organism
(non-human} have the ability to make up inner communication with the mind-brain of the
human to exchange the higher knowledge information
4-the hallucination is not human mental symptoms outputs,but it is the cause of sz itself
=the hallucination in reality is a whole live entity non-human and not a thoughts of human mind,they are independent psychological entities that has been emitted in the human
psychological entity , living together in inner cognitive fighting without stop
=no matter you call hallucination,psychosis or devil,the important thing is the way
that you deal with psychological,mental and behavior of higher organisms,not as a
human mental characteristics"abnormal"
=friendship with illness/ disease or devil "hallucinater /psychosis) is ideal talk
