I hate cards, if this belongs in life I have no idea, I just wanted to tell a little story.

It's been an odd year for me, diagnosed both physically and mentally disabled/retarded, with schizophrenia. It was difficult coming to terms with it, especially telling my parents, who worry quite a lot.

So this year I thought I'd do the kind thing and buy them a card that reads "Merry Christmas from the both of us"

God I hope they laugh.

I'm thinking of doing it myself just to make xmas more interesting. Maybe i can get 2 lots of all the good food :D

i'm sure your parents will be cool about it unless they thank you for he card then 5 mins later you asked them about what they thought of the card hehe.

hope your christmas goes well though :D

...probably 'cos I don't understand it. And things that you just can't understand can be pretty scary.

I find the whole idea of schizofrenia scary myself...

Lucky you!

He's fine now thanks. Practically perfectly normal. Interesting to see how, you like him, have spells of depression associated with the mood changes.

When I don't come on here it's because I CBA.

I don't understand your case. My brother has to take many drugs to keep him normal. But for you I didn't quite see what the doctors thought the symptoms were. I mean you seem perfectly cheerful on here and I wouldn't assume that when you're "out of colour" you just refuse to come on, so..."

My moods don't bounce around that much anymore, but I do refuse to come on here, or do much of anything when I'm in a bad state. I'm on heavy medication, and it certainly calms my brain down.

I'm only a borderline case. I find it difficult, but I can tell when things aren't real (I think), which is quite lucky. I'm sorry to hear about your brother.

It's something along the lines of I'm psychotic, but I know it.

It's only a temporary thing. I think I'll just keep changing my name for a while. For a no reason in particular.

I remember you talking about this a couple of months ago. I didn't understand then and I don't understand now.

My brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia, but with him it was a clear cut case. He seemed to just be a completely different person all of the time, only rarely being his regular good natured self.

I don't understand your case. My brother has to take many drugs to keep him normal. But for you I didn't quite see what the doctors thought the symptoms were. I mean you seem perfectly cheerful on here and I wouldn't assume that when you're "out of colour" you just refuse to come on, so...



(They'll give you a nervous laugh at first, then retell the tale for years. I did it as a joke once a few years ago.)
