    Following God's Call

    Does anyone have advice on how to better hear the call of God and his messengers? I do have faith in the spiritual self, and healing. I want to be a light-worker, or help heal others. I feel guilt for things I've done in the past, or misguided intentions or actions. How can I put myself on a...

    Diagnosis Change...

    I don't really have negative voices, for the most part. Like, when I stopped taking my medication I heard a female voice that said "You have schizophrenia, take your medication" and I argued a bit, but then it went away. I imagine I could have a debate with a voice if I tried but for the most...

    Jesus makes no distinction between the sane and mentally ill, we are all sinners

    This is a wonderful topic and thread! It gives me hope. Jesus did die for our sins. I was thinking about that last night, how I've thought about it but never really quite grasped it and I'm trying to. I am searching for direction, but I love God and I know God has saved me many times and...

    Am struggling on medication, anyone notice brainwashing?

    I don't think schizophrenia has a cause, other than intense suffering and the human state. When I was seventeen I was off the medication, and noticed things happen at sch an acute rate that were detrimental to me, that it's almost as if the world is being assigned a perception that doesn't fit...

    Can a career in art glorify God?

    I recently had a dream that told me I should have followed my heart and studied art for an Art degree. I am going back to college, however I would have to change majors to art if I choose and I don't know if I can do it. It sounds competitive but I want the challenge. I also find the best way I...

    Voices Act Like Angels to me

    I'm a confirmed Catholic. I believe similar to what you describe. Although I'm not sure if Saints can be Angels, but I like to think so. Maybe it's just my imagination or intuitive mind. How could anyone differentiate between God and the human collective consciousness? I have studied Carl...

    I am helpless to help my mother

    I wish I could, her Bipolar has been untreated since she was about 30 and she's 46. She is now spending money all the time, talking to herself all the time, nightmares, seizures or "head shocks" etc. It has become what looks like schizophrenia or schizo-affective untreated. She has regressed...

    Schizophrenia is a malfunction, not a disease: this needs prayer

    I think we all are immortal in our own way. I've yet to prove or disprove this theory. I think good and bad people have purposes and that madness cures existence. From Sylvia Plath's enigmatic poems to Van Gogh's impressionist paintings. One thing I have noticed many people with schizophrenia...

    I'm wondering about BPD

    I guess there's no easy explanation. I just wish there was. I want a rational reason for things, not all this up in the air stuff. I haven't regressed, went to college, etc. and proved to my doctors finally that I wasn't a different person and that I was often more upset in the doctor's office...

    I'm wondering about BPD

    So, I know labels can be misdiagnosed and often are due to human error. I have always been against or fear the label BPD, it sets off thinking about my mother who was diagnosed with it, with multiple suicide attempts when I was very young, and then became psychotic. Now she is displaying very...

    Quit recreational drug & alcohol

    It was about 6 months where all I did was abuse substances. My therapist was constantly bringing up substance issues with drinking, so I did it because it upset me when she assumed I had a problem. I felt like it didn't matter whether I did or not because she'd always have that written down. I...

    Antichrist delusion

    I don't know, I couldn't say why you feel horrible. It's probably because of mania. Not many people understand mania and schizophrenia. It's difficult to reach out to people. I remember the times when I was ill, many people were there to help me through it. An older woman who was a friend of my...

    Voices Act Like Angels to me

    Thanks, I'm glad this was helpful to you. The thing is, when I've heard them they are often very quiet--not like a whisper but a distinct thought, that comes from an unknown source but often feels like Angelic. After the Sandyhook tragedy, for instance, I had a vision of Gabriel and the other...

    Voices Act Like Angels to me

    This may be a strange thing. Often you hear tales of schizophrenic voices as destructive entities which tell a person to do harmful things to themselves or criticize them. I want to explain something that no one hardly understands. My voices help me. I found affirmation in this after reading...

    Seeing

    "Seeing What's Unseen" Well it had happened again, as it was meant to. The curtains closed, and I met Shakespeare as his Juliet. There were footsteps, tap tap clomp. I fell backwards, afraid of what might have been there. Lurking, amidst the shadows were teeth all white...in that prismatic evil...

    The Outsider

    The cave was ridden of life and within its cold shadowy murk lay an evil. A monster that was fed by the blood of wasted innocence. Every night, the demon would leave his cave in a ravaging search for young blood. The only one who could save mankind from the wretched demon, was an outsider. He...
