So your back to normal, what’s next?
My friends have insisted in the past that I’d be the one to get rich. This thought was revived today by a buddy of mine. They really don’t consider my Sz a problem. They see me as the same person I’ve always been.
Sooner or later your gonna have this ingenious idea they tell me.
Don’t really know.
It’s odd though, I have this debilitating illness and they still consider me more able then themselves.
I’m blowing smoke up my own arse. Boofing pride.
I hope it’s true.
This illness has no hold on me anymore. It’s like everyone is always talking ■■■■ telepathically and I’m over it. I have no ego. I’m gonna open a recording studio or something.
Sometimes people we know can see stuff about us that we can’t see in ourselves. I didn’t get back to work in 1983 on just my own volition. It was through a series of small steps instigated by counselors and family.

I’m convinced it’s all in my head and now I’m normal.
Well Bryan, I hate to rain on anyone’s parade but a serious disease that has been present for a year or two or more is not going to disappear overnight. But my schizophrenic friends all seemed normal to me. Yes, it’s all in our head by definition. It would be great if you got better but few people recover completely. Maybe you are making strides in your disease and improving, in that case, good for you.
Yeah dude. I’m just enjoying the upswing. Sometimes it can blind me. For once though I’m living hallucinations or not. The dose of realit you have provided is crucial.
I don’t expect for it to go away overnight…
Wish it would though.
Thanks for being a friend man.
Schizos are people too. I would have never known if I wasn’t one myself.
Yeah, I have many moments where things calm down and my disease does not feel so severe. I enjoy those moments too.

Trying to make the best of it I guess. Thanks for the perspective though. Made me a little less excited but refined in solidarity all the same.
Life goes on. Symptoms or not.
I can’t make the hallucinations go away, but I can realize they are only in my head. That is the power I have found at this point. It’s why I’m so excited.
Hey, if it works, then more power to you!

I’m getting to the point where I don’t even think about it anymore. I can’t remember if I was having symptoms or not. I don’t pay attention to it anymore.
Normal… functional… not normal… what ever it is…
I bet you could open a recording studio.
What you went through will never leave you… I don’t mean the symptoms… I mean the memory of this illness and what you did and how hard you worked to get back out of the forest.
Maybe your brain will say… If I can kick Sz then how hard would it be… getting a recording studio started… just to see how far it goes?
If it grows… you could ask yourself…
Well I was able to get Sz behind me… how much harder then that… would it be to try and sign more bands to my recording studio?
