Hey guys!! Do you ever have days when you think it’s really possible to go the other direction with your illness?
Like today I realized most of the time when I’m paranoid there is nothing really wrong and nothing I need to fear about. Yea maybe some people dislike me and may even want me to suffer but maybe I don’t have to live in that world or accept the identity of a bad person who deserves to suffer.
Ive made Soo many bad mistakes in my life that I am haunted by that alone apart from the mental illness. I’m starting to think if I change my behavior and stop letting others and my own sick mind torment me maybe I have a chance at remission?
Do you guys ever wake up and feel like there’s nothing wrong and maybe you don’t have to be the person your illness or other people try to force you to be?
That’s a great start. Keep working on it and you’ll get to the point where the positive symptoms are more amusing than annoying and have lost all control or influence over you. It’s a matter of developing the habit of not taking them seriously.
