    Bear in mind, even if you survive your mental health issue, persecutions will follow?

    Hi there, So yes Mark 10:30 makes it very clear, that what we suffer for God and His kingdom will be rewarded but that even being rewarded, there will be persecutions that follow with that rewarding. It's like someone learning to ride a bike, if they have an accident on the footpath - running...

    Schizophrenia is a neurological capitulation. My capitulation is from mind to memory.

    Hi there, So I worked out how to describe my schizophrenia in layman's terms: it is a capitulation. There are many ways to describe a capitulation, as there are many types of schizophrenia - the point being that knowing the particular kind of capitulation for what it is will help you relate to...

    Don't let them tell you, they have seen your future - illness is for a season, not every season

    Hi there, So yes, I have struggled with a diagnosis of my schizophrenia, for years. One thing that made it particularly difficult, was that the treating team (the psychiatrist and his nurses) would say "you will have this condition for the rest of your life", as if the Day I reach Heaven, I...

    The role of the Holy Spirit, in mental health

    Hi there, So I just want to work something out for myself, with regard to the Holy Spirit, in mental health. I take myself as an example and question what it is that caused me to have a mental health condition. What the Spirit says to me, is that "I advised that you develop a mental health...

    I'm of two minds, about whether I want a mental health condition, in *Heaven*?

    Hi there, So yes, you can tell I'm an old hand at this, from the title. I have been on the ins and outs of schizophrenia for a couple of decades now and I have to say it hasn't all been roses. It started out with my sense of meaning slipping from reality and became a full blown delusion about...

    Take it from experience: you don't want to just beat your psychosis, you want to tame it

    Hi there, So yes, a word of hope here: it is possible to tame your psychosis - in a manner of speaking. Initially, schizophrenia (for example) can be very wild and unchecked, but with proper self-care (meditation, diet, medication - to an extent - exercise), you can reach a point, where you...

    Recently, I came to the conclusion, that I have "dysintellexia" - a thinking disability

    Hi there, So yes, for some time now, my doctors and other people in my life, have been saying "you have schizophrenia, that is why you don't make sense". But actually, my condition goes deeper than a simple "schizophrenic" diagnosis. I have dysintellexia - dysintellexia is the inability to...

    Schizophrenia, in principle, is an extension of your personality. It can be trained.

    Hi there, So just a little insight I have managed to get, after all my years (17 years) of schizophrenia: Schizophrenia is in principle, an extension of our personality. It can be trained, and it can be mastered. By trained, I mean we can practice meditation to the point that our cortisol...

    Does Jesus love unconditionally? Jesus says, "No"!

    John 15:9-10 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. How does one spew forth doctrine that Jesus loves unconditionally if the above...

  11. Who Are We?

    The Lord Jesus led me today to read the transcript of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union Address of January 30, 2018. I got about half way through reading it when the Lord said to stop, and that I had read enough, and that it was time for me to write what the Lord thinks about it. The...

    How does one stop anticipating the worst and not give in to fear?

    Main problem I feel like I have a loss of control over my thoughts. I try to replace overly negative fearful ones with positive ones instead but a voice (in my mind) keeps telling me ''what if this fear is true? you should dwell on it to stay on guard'' and I can't seem to let go of my fears...
