Wow.. That was disheartening

Once again, was accused of not being schizophrenic.
Why you may ask? This person believes this : "If Cannabis DID cause Schizophrenia then the human race is in luck. We need more people with extraordinary ways of thinking, I’m quite sick of the majority of the human race anyway.”
And I obviously argued with them over this and they sent me another long message saying I wasnt schizophrenic and I needed to go smoke some weed because I was enraging them. Like I am tired of people romanticizing this ■■■■■■■ illness.

I do need to go smoke, because I’m pissed as hell. Had to block them. I can’t be letting myself get wound up over someone else’s ignorance.

It really isn’t worth it.

Eventually people are going to tell me im not schizophrenic enough and Im going to start believing it and then I’ll just revert back to how I was.

I feel so depressed now. Nobody ever believes me when I try to stick up for us.

i learnt a long time ago not to listen too much to other people.
i hear people out, compute the imformatoin, and then calmly come to a conclusion…
there are many people in this world ;
the stupid
the ignorant
bullies
the artistic
the mentally ill
the boring
the inspirational
this world is a mix of the good , the bad , and the ugly.
ignore those who do not add to your life in a positive way.
take care

I’m sorry this got you down…

You know in your heart what you have to do to get through your day… no one else sees what goes on behind the scenes… even family doesn’t see what you see…

You just have to let that sort of thing go and keeping doing what you need to do… to get done what you need to get done.

I’ve been accused by some of the people in my own Sz group of not being Sz for a number of reasons.

The strangest one was… there was no way I could be SZ because I like kids and dote on my niece and nephew. (according to this guy, people who like kids can’t be SZ)

I’ve also been ranted at because different person thought I was brainwashed into taking my meds. I was giving up by taking my meds. If I had any backbone, I would get off my meds and fight this illness like a man.

I’ve also been accused of not having my diagnosis due to the fact that I was able to hold a job. (no one saw how much work it was behind the scenes… and how much help I needed getting to that job)

As far as smoking pot? No more for me… it only makes me worst and keeps my meds from working correctly and makes me paranoid in the end. I know for sure, my high times are over.

Hmm. I would be careful about the pot smoking. It might make you worse.

Smoking is very useful for me, however, I gave up trying to change peoples minds a while ago. Mud wrestling with a pig comes to mind.
