"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, it's just my Tourette's."

That's a question I ALWAYS get, either as a verbal question or as a concerned (or standoff-ish) look. And that's EXACTLY how I answer.

Now, this can do one of two things: Shut them up or encourage them to ask more questions, both of which I've encountered, though the latter is what tends to happen more frequently, which is really a good thing because it shows interest ...

Yesterday I saw my psychiatrist again. The last week I've been having crushing headaches. I thought it might just be stress or side-effects from the meds. But she said it's from suppressed anger.

The funny thing is, the moment she said that, I immediately knew who and what I was angry at: My ex. So I went home and while I was in the shower, I started thinking about why I am angry at her, ...

As I've said before the little animals ...

Well, in the month I've known about my schizophrenia, it seems to have created a trainwreck of events one after another. I'm not looking for pity or anything, I just gotta vent. I trusted my ex-fiancee with my deepest thought, thoughts no one should hear, and she got me thrown in the hospital, and was violent to me again, broke up without saying goodbye, stole my family, my possessions, and my home. The worst thing ...

Hi.

Yesterday evening I got some new alters, aged 9-12 that gave me some new information about their abuse. Well I'm pissed off now...!

Why is it always that it's the victim, the innocent children, that are being accused of BREAKING the family!? I mean...WTF!!? It's the f**king abuser, not the victim that broke the family in the first place! The abuser is just a giant wuss who doesn't want to take the responsibility of ...
