People manage how to live a awsome life with schizophrenia. We have to find some stepping stone where we can stand and not fall back.

Believing that you are always well

Add your own(cant think some more now)

Dont get hopeless becouse you have schizophrenia

Find your true balance

Life doesnt suck , its your imagination worlds is fair to everybody

People are capable of many things - to cope with schizophrenia

Maybe our purpose is not make alot of money or achive great things . But respect schizophrenia

i honestly would give everything i owned away to not take meds and live a more normal life. and go live in the jungle if i had to

But it is what it is, after bad state of psychosis and i come right i always tend to dwell back on it and try think how i could have changed it somehow when i should cherish those sane moments more, the feeling of just one good smile afterwards means so much to me.

I always find myself trying to figure out why it happened and why they came or spoke to me that way the usual plots we hear…

But i sure as hell aint going to let it win. I hate meds but my brain is how it should always have been it just lost a few pills along the way. haha

Keep it real <3

I think we should respect people who are coping with it, but I find the concept of respecting an illness to be a bit strange. It’s a treatable condition, not something to be worshipped or romanticized.

Postive thinking is a good thing, but schizophrenia is a horrible disease that changes peoples lives, and sometimes takes their lives. I’m glad you can be so positive about your condition, it isn’t like that for me. It has robbed me of so much potential and makes day to day living hell at times. I can think like this when I am well, in between the psychosis and the depression, but when I am depressed, afraid and confused, I don’t have the ability to think so positively.
