Hey guys. I'm battling from schizophrenia. I'm not asking for money or views or anything, but just for support and for people to hear me out. My psychiatrist said to let people know about your problem, but everyone thinks I'm weird and my family cannot understand or take me seriously. I made a blog about my problems, and I hope we can talk on there. My blog is battlingschizophrenia.blogspot­­­.com . Fellow schizophrenics, you should also come. We can fight the battle together.

@RAPTOR948 isnt it unfair to that person to have to live with someone like this ?

I can make decisions but I need multiple choice. No joke.

@MrTahadar You can't be diagnosed with DPD until you are 18, so nix on the children thing. Also, I've NEVER had a man take care of me. Uhh for better or for worse, I've had to take care of myself my entire adult life and never even been able to depend on women in my life to care for me when I needed it.

@RAPTOR948 That's a terrible idea. What happens to the other person's independence when they have to completely take responsibility for the care of another dysfunctional adult? In the end, if the other person is mentally healthy they will leave the person with DPD, leading to further feelings of abandonment.
