My story.

Postby TheManyFacesOfMe » Sun Mar 03, 2013 9:17 pm

Ive been Schizophrenic since childbirth. i had horrible nightmares from an early age, and saw vampires and that sort of thing from an early age. when i was only 4 years old. I recently developed Bipolar 1, and I have BPD As well. I fear rejection, feel empty all the time, and have Constantly changing opinions of my self image, among all the other traits. So can anyone relate?
I survived psychiatric medications without getting bad side effects.

While I'm not Schizophrenic, I do have BPD and Bipolar disorder. I'm also very scared of the rejection, I do feel empty quite a bit, and my self image and hatred can fluctuate from one extreme to the other a lot. That's all I got though, sorry! :(

The closest to schizophrenia that I have is that I can become very paranoid and through stress I actually get hallucinations. I am very sorry that you have to deal with that because it's really tough seeing, feeling, and hearing things that aren't there but they seem very real.

It's part of BPD to feel empty and in a sense like a complete reject. But if you ever have some problems, feel free to come over here. We're here for support.

I don't have schizophrenia per se, but I do see demons, evil, and aliens everywhere. But that's because I Know Things. I also see angels and signs of God/Jesus too. They are things I seldom talk about, and most certainly would never tell a doctor, because they'd just "diagnose" me as having "paranoid hallucinations". I know sometimes I have auditory hallucinations, but I think everybody does (thinking somebody said something when they didn't, thinking you heard a phone, that sort of thing.) I was diagnosed with BPD, some mild form of depression that starts with an A (it has a long, weird name I don't remember), I know I have OCD though it wasn't diagnosed, and suspect I have Aspergers.

I do have constantly changing opinions. Of myself, and everything else around me.
