  • I know somebody who has schizophrenia and he writes the same as you do. People in his family would tease him about it when he wrote on facebook and i would always find that to be mean. The thing is, this guy is not stupid in any way, actually he is very smart, its just that schizophrenics have a hard time organizing their thoughts when they write. The person i know is older than you too and living with his parents with no job until recently. He gets assistance from the govt and his own apartment and has come a long way since. He probably will never be able to hold a normal job, but he is learning to be independent. The first step is you need to see a doctor. There are other government assisted programs to help people with your problem become independent. Good luck to you and i am rooting for you to get the help you need.

    • oh wow thank you so much i would love to ask you a few question's please.

      and sorry it took me soooo long to write back.

      how old is this guy.

      and in your experance how do you relate him from his family i mean whats the different's you see you say he smart but his family pic on him whos the better one in all this.

      well to me it's like i been through so much nagativity and had not much any true positive experance in my life to make up for all that so my mind have a lot of regret and everything pain sorry and its running like a train.

      even now today i still have problems doing good thing's for myself like talking to a female i like are.......well to make it easy i'm not taking care of my feelings and though's and its hard cause they running around everywhere so i kinda gave up.

      i know what i think and belive is wrong like i want a girlfriend but i dont want one cause i think ima be hurt also with friends are just anyone and this happens cause of me being hurt from my family over the most littlest things like spilling milk and cause of this i over react over the littlest things in my life.

      and i know i can't compare new people from old people but the feelings is just to much for me that i'm scared to express my self.

      i been going through life just being told what to do are being insulted.

      really i just gave up on life.

      the biggest regret i have is thinking about others b4 my self.

      • He is 31. I think his brothers kind of did pick on him but only because it's hard to recognize that it's his mental illness that makes him act the way he does sometimes or do the things he does sometimes. For example, he would pawn his mother's jewelry or anything else that he thought had value even thought it wasn't his. He constantly throws temper tantrums and destroys stuff around the house too. He is very messy and does not know how to do his own laundry or even clean up after himself.

        Truthfully, i think that most of that bad behavior happened whenever he would decide to stop taking his meds because he thought he didn't need them anymore. If there is one thing I could tell you it's take your meds as ordered by your doctor no matter what. Because whenever he would be doing well, he would stop his meds and then everything would go to sh*t.

        As far as the issue with women, he went a very long time without a girlfriend, probably more than 10 years. For whatever reason, the past 2 years, he had 2 different girlfriends and one of them is serious now supposedly.

        It is nice to see him somewhat finally getting his life on track even without a job. He's got an apartment and a girlfriend now, which is more than i ever seen him accomplish and I been in the picture 7 years now. I have never had any personal problems with him but my brother in law's wife does all the time (shes only been in the picture for like 3 years including dating) she will always find a way to start something with him and she even started with me, so we tend to steer clear of her. Other than that, i think its only a matter of the family needs to understand that sometimes the things you do is because of the illness.

        • its kinda different with me like i can clean for my self and wash my own cloth's and stuff but i have not had a girlfriend are sex for years like 3 years and trully i never had a girlfriend that i really liked alot. and when i do get a girlfriend i be scared to tell other's that i'm not scared to be alone and people know it but i am scared to have a girlfriend and people knowing it.

          like the last girlfriend i had in 5 years was 2 and both of them i try to keep them a secret among my family but not my nephew.

          i wish my family help me with getting a girlfriend are getting a job are getting help.

          biggest regret i have is my sex life i gave up so many beautiful women so much good sex its not like i dont want them and its not like i dont want sex in fact its killing me. its just i think ima get judged wrongly and besides my emotions are to sensitive i got to fix on that myself.

          its sad cause i have 1 bro and 3 sister's and none teach me about women and sex only one my young sister but that did't turn out well only cause wat she was teaching me was sick to me.

          i hate my family so much sooooooooooo much.

          • You should probably see a doctor and find out what medication is right for you. Once you find a medication that works, you go with that. Also continue to seek help with the housing and all of that. The first step to getting your life on track is find a doctor and be put on meds.

              • I have no clue if he was scared tosee a doctor when he started having problems, but I can imagine so. I'm scared to see doctors too and so are a lot of people but if you really need help and trying to fix it by yourself is not working there comes a point where you have to admit to yourself that you need professional help and need to seek a doctor in order to get the help you need. Think of your brain and your mental well being as just as much a part of your body as anything else (which it truly is). If you had a broken leg, you would need medical treatment, correct? You wouldn't just keep on living with that broken leg would you? You have to do what is best for you in order for you to better your life.
