I felt great the first few days and then it all came back. I can’t even sit outside for a few minutes without delusions that I’m being watched and the neighbors are criticizing me. Auditory hallucinations came back full swing and I’ve been having a new visual of a female that stands in the hallway and stares at me. Sigh
Dealing eith the same stuff rn. Makes my mind feel like it’s somehow this massive dome that expands into other people’s space. I try to ignore it and be confident but they just get more nasty with the things they say til I totally flip
We need a utopia for schizophrenics that isn’t cyber-based lol.
I agree. I have an odd sensitivity to frequencies
It isn’t where you live, although it is that to a certain extent. It is the fact that you have schizophrenia. You take it with you wherever you go. I found this to be true in my new situation after I moved to Maryland.
How long have you been diagnosed?
54 years! XXXXXXXXX
Is there any advice you could give about feeling alienated or feeling observed?
These two mind-states are common to schizophrenia. I feel alienated and feel observed too. You can do something about the first one by leaving the house and getting out in public. The second one is probably not true. It is a delusion. Try applying your reason to it. Keep plugging away at it. It will gradually lessen in importance and might even depart forever.
Thanks alot for the advice. I had made alot of progress and was living basically symptom free until some things happened im working on it. Thanks for the support
@martinhersey1 I’ve lived all over, I know it’s unconditional. I just felt like this place would have less triggers.
Sometimes it takes some time to adjust to your environment and it to adjust to you. One thing I realized is that when things like that happen I start analyzing everything that makes me different from others instead of focusing on what everyone has in conmon and the good I have to give people.
It’s easy to be bitter after getting fed up with bs but it’s alot more satisfying to still be at one with yourself and giving loving vibes to your environment.
