Since I was drinking a lot with friends at 12 years of age and then became a fundamentalist Christian and suffered hallucinations and delusion, which kept me on the straight and narrow, I have to be honest and say that my life may have been much worse.
I always say how I had to drop out of art college, etc and that’s true, but if I go back further then it might be true that without the strict directives of my sz induced fanaticism I very well may have gone down the same road as the friends that I suddenly disowned at that time. I may have gone on to take and deal drugs like they did. I may have gotten pregnant young. I may have ended up in jail.
I was prone to extreme ways of thinking. Maybe the sz saved me. We’ll never know.

I think I’d also have gone on to going for a PhD in mathematics. At least I had been on track to a top grade maths degree before I just got too psychotic and too drug addled to function well
