• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I've decided I'm holding out for an amazing friend. They will listen to me often enough that I won't get panic attacks from all the arguing.

God has given me a special ability, I feel, I call Selectiveness. I can usually discern when people are being dead honest with me and when they're not. I just need to start trusting these feelings.

I'm actually crazy smart and crazy perceptive, but I'm also a schizophrenic.

I very well understand your disease, and hope you are maintaining reasonably well on the prescribed meds as given. That is essential! Regarding your relationship with God, just remember that it is also "essential" to understand that no one comes to God-the Father, but by the Lord Jesus (see John 14), so be sure you are trusting and in communion with the Lord Jesus daily. Make Him your best Friend and lord of your life, and pray for a good mind and good health! God will give one a spiritual new birth (read John 3) by putting Him first in your life. I will pray for you. Look up daily!
