the Path to Recovery Ain't Easy Posted: 04-17-06 00:38am
I'm 17 year old with a mild case of
schizo-why-the-hell-did-i-do-to-have-that
sickness. I have recovered a lot since
last year yet i'm still fearful of
relapse. My parents are'nt very
supportive (even though they say they
are), i'm ok right now but what about in
the future.
Let's all start in the beginning.
You see when I was a kid I was like the
kid who rather be alone and read books.
As time passed by I grow lonely and more
insecure for all my talents involve being
alone like drawing. I became unconfident
everyday till I reached the breaking
point. No need to get in the stupid
suicidal attempts info but here I am now
in my whole country with his whole life
ahead of him.
Last two years I was labled a robot at
my new school and was bullied mercylessly
for I have entirely gave up on life yet at
the next year I fixed myself after I
finded real friends and beaten all those
bullies at their own game because I know
someone believes in me. I had the last
laugh and gained their respect and learned
so much more to life.
I love shopping,singing,writing, and
socializing yet now that i'm on summer
vacation it seems like everyday seems more
like a fight to fight the emptyness that
at one time controled me. What am I
suppose to do now? I have too much people
believing in me to give up......To my
self!
My only connection to reality was the
people who I connected with....I need more
bonding. Someone who can truly understand
I guess. Bah, right now i'm sick with the
measles. My dreams,my reality, my life is
at stake.

My brother's schizophrenic, holds his
dream job...Working in a music store and
has a girlfriend. If he can do it so can
you....Summer's your opportunity to get a
plan going. Stay connected with the
friends you have and make more. Once your
better, get out and meet new people, use
family connections and land a job. If
that's too much for you, make smaller
goals, fulfill them and move on to the
next.....You'll feel much better about
yourself and you'll get out and start
socializing. You can do it! :)
