So I found out I am schizophrenic. Where do I go from here?

LMFAO!!

DID YOU GET TESTED FOR TOXOPLASMOSIS?

Do you have family that can be there for you? Sibling?

psychiatry is a scam.

Why don't u ask yourself that?

yes

OZZY OZBOURNE ONCE TOLD ME , "ONCE YOU REALIZE YOU`ER CRAZY,IT DOESN'T MATTER ANY MORE."

I'd just ask my sibling to keep an eye on me, make sure I'm okay and take my meds. Going off meds causes the most amount of issues. Take care of your health first always.

Stay home,home,save your money,money.

Where do you start? Get help. There is medicine for that condition, and you should take it regularly and be good about it. This isn't a punishment, it's a medical problem.

Don't be embarrassed about it, simply take the needed steps. This isn't your fault and not something you did wrong. Still, that said, only you can do what is needed to make corrections.

Also, if you know you blur the lines between fantasy and reality, find a friend who will make corrections for you, and act on their words, even if it seems wrong. If they tell you Santa Clause isn't real, then run with that, even if you secretly KNOW that's wrong.

It won't be easy, all the time, but there are things you can do. Don't give up. You've got this.

Clozaril aka clozopine. It really works and will give you your mind and life back.

You honestly think a modern day quack has all the answers for reality? They probably think all the facts are conspiracy theories - meaning they are the delusional, out of reality whackos man.

Tread carefully, the woman I fell in love with was labeled crazy, dissociative identity etc and it turns out she was an MK survivor and still suffering from electronic torture.

Look into Dr. Abram Hoffer's "mega" vitamin therapy. Basically he found the 1000mg of niacin 3x per day (the kind that produces a flush) along with 1000mg of vitamin C 3x per day, B-100 comlex vitamin and omega 3 fish oil cured schizophrenia.

You are not schizophrenic. You may have been diagnosed but it does not change a thing. Maybe you have schizophrenic behavior or thought patterns and if you want to change it you can.

If you weren't schizo before the meds, chances are you will be after a regiment or two. Pharmaceuticals can exacerbate the issue. The answer is you are unique, in fact we all are. Even those other personalities within' ourselves. Everyone has them, some more profound/pronounced than others. If you trust the pseudoscience, then by all means, resort to sorcery.

Do something original put your brand on it to remember who you are

Horrible advice.

Do not start meds.

Well you’ve already GONE crazy so you can cross going there off the list.

Have you tried drinking excessively?

OP Diagnosis continues to be based on the psychiatrist subjective evaluation of patients behavior, and what. patients say they are experiencing. I am not saying you are not, but I would not be so willing to accept a subjective evaluation. There are spectrums of schizophrenia. Also not all delusions are attributed to schizophrenia, it can also be attributed to Bipolar disorder. There is no single symptom essential for the diagnosis of schizophrenia. If this turn out to an accurate diagnosis, then I would apply for disability.

Seek out beauty.
All the best museums and galleries of the world are on the internet most of it free to visit online.
Many of you are depressed, because no beauty in your life. Sharp edges, grey or disharmonious colors, cacophony rule your life, whether you are rich or poor.
What is called art here is not art, it is there to depress you.
What is called music here is not music, it is there to depress and bewilder you.
Go back to the art of ancient ages, 300-3000 years old, there you find joy of life, there you find the real human qualities

This ^^^

He was actually sane years ago when he went by the screen-name "Patriotic Black Man".

Then a few years ago, when the liberal bias started taking over his personality, you could tell he was slowly losing his mind (which is typical for 'liberals').

Now he's more of a hivemind liberal, which makes sense along with the schizophrenia diagnosis.

That's not a bad thing unless the intent is harmful.
It's helped many inventors and artists.

If you aren't having bad and horrible thoughts but just fanciful thoughts, what's the problem? Even if you do have negative thoughts, that can be changed.

Well there are exceptions of course. One might be too far gone and actually insane, or one might not want to believe they have the power within to do so. But as someone who grew up manipulated to believe I was no good and worthless, I was able to overcome that negative thinking. I didn't do it alone. I asked for help from a higher power (to me that is God).

But I had to be willing to change. I had to be open to being helped. It was and is hard, and I ask for help daily. Because the me here is limited in what I can do alone. But nothing is beyond God.
But i honestly feel even if you don't believe in anything, just asking within with real sincerity and intent will get you to a better place mentally. And practice gratitude, it is a key.

If one needs external help via counselors or medical doctors, you have to do what works best for you.

^^^ this.

There are no meds for schizophrenia.

Counselling and a job is the recommended action.

Daydreaming is not schizophrenia. Not even close. Go talk to schizophrenics on medication and they will tell you what their real hallucinations are like.

The fact is like many of us in the world, you probably have seen to much of the world and so you daydream, because reality sucks. That it doesn't really mean you're crazy, it just means reality sucks.

Other than that you are probably a little lazy, that is when the world starts really caring if people are crazy or not. When someone is not productive then system wants to get to the bottom of it.

So get a job and daydream while you work, no one will really care. Get a job involving creativity and you might get paid to daydream all day long, of course then you usually have to write it down or record it.

The difference between crazy people and eccentric people is usually lots of money.

This happened to my cousin at the age of 23. I feel so terrible for my aunt and uncle cause they're still dealing with it.

It would be nice if anyone here has a cure. I will relay some of the ideas I've already seen here.

He's the violent paranoid type. He's pulled a knife on my aunt and uncle before cause the voices told him they were trying to kill him with meds.

It's such a terrible disease.

Like being a midget or autistic? You get ridiculed and put down. You find something, anything about yourself to love and you hold onto that, and you care less about the noise and put downs.

We are not supposed to have wonderful lives. You see bipolar women get celebrated, bipolar men get killed.

Most of glp are tripping on video, stories and pretending they are original
