Kate talks about what it's like living with Schizophrenia, and offers some advice to others also living with this mental health issue. Is it Time to Change our attitude towards schizophrenia?
@MassagePatriot quite possibly but I wouldn't get to far into that. thats like accepting halucinations as real and that could make things worse wouldnt it?
hi kate!!, i too have paranoid schizophrenia.i've been living with it since the age of 23, but must say i wasnt compltely ok before hand.if you have a teenage kid and they act in any "really "abnormal way( apathy,sleeping alot, depression-even if mild,a dramatic fall in their grades,problems(real problems) with the other sex) have them checked out with a psychiatrist.even three visits will make sure that any potential problem can be prevented before it gets serious.good luck to you all!!
@PROPERTYOFMRCULLEN To be considered Bipolar and Not Schizophrenic, you have to carry a mood disorder/problem. Having both the symptoms of schizophrenia and Bipolar is called 'Schizo-affective' (or Bipolar 1)
how do you know the difference between schizophrenia and bi-polar and can you have both? Just wondering because i was just diagnosed bi-polar 1 yet i have many symptoms that arent covered by just Bi-Polar 1 alone.
Thank for helping me learn some more about Schizophrenia. My mother is Schizophrenic, I just recently met her for the 1st time and I love her for who she is and she is doing well like you.
Thanks for sharing. Advice is always needed/accepted. My parents don't accept. My brother has no comment about it. My son, thinks I'm normal but meet the clinical definition. Tonight we watched Amitiville Horror. He said to me he knows I hear and see things others don't. I said that I think it's all ghosts, angels, demons and stuff I'm percieving but a reality to me anyhow. He is really sweet about it. He has a severe disabling form of ADD and we support each other.

Schizophrenia is not a dis-ease it is a gift. Yes all gifts have their curses. You are a 5th dimensional being. Learn to evolve and find your light.
