People are great!

Everybody has been treating me real nice lately. It makes me feel good; it’s almost
like a spiritual experience, lol…

Feeling liked is probably no big deal to most of you guys. But for me, it’s a huge deal. I basically checked out of life when I was about 11 or 12. i withdrew and stopped talking to people. It was very hard on me and the few friends that i had treated me like an animal and laughed about it. Well, not all the time I guess. We had some fun times.

Anyways, I’ll stop posting so much about being liked. But for most of my life, being liked was a foreign concept. Now I’ve come full circle and both women and men are pretty nice to me and I enjoy talking to them.
Lately, I have been having the peace of mind that I have literally been craving for 35 years with paranoid schizophrenia. Not a euphoric, false high or anything. My symptoms will significantly lessen sometimes and I find peace. Stick with it folks, it could happen to you.

For the last two weeks I’ve felt great! People are being nice to me too.

Sometimes I say “am I a sellout” for forgiving the masses…for giving up using …am I a sellout for being not “bitter” at people who treated me poorly in the past. Then I tell myself “forgiveness is a good thing”

Not to mention “reforming” to “their ways” that they consider “right”

I don’t think I was wrong while psychotic, just sick

If mtdew wanted to fund my med usage with cash…I would sell out…

Back on subject…I’m glad ur having good days and people are responding in a positive manner gj…

I’ve always secretly wanted to be a rodeo clown. I’ve never told anyone this before so keep it under your hat.

But seriously, I don’t know why I’m feeling so good lately. I’ve always heard that people with schizophrenia often experience a loss of symptoms or at least they lessen in intensity as they get older. That’s probably it.

You deserve to feel liked. You’re a very likable person.

I don’t underestimate the importance of feeling liked. I rarely feel it so I know how special it is.
