I have told a doctor that I am almost 100% sure that I have schizophrenia, but I want to ask people with it for sure so I can know. I currently take risperdal, so this is what I was like before taking it.
I stay up days at a time often, usually waking up around 5 or six pm
I talk to myself almost every time no one can hear me
I think groups of people at school have decided to hate me together
I think peoples hair are in my cooked meals
I say the same word or phrase over and over
I would say a string of words that were incoherent
I have a blank stare on my face-blunted affect, often, or a frown when I feel fine
For awhile, the only thing that seemed worthwhile was holing up in my room and watching movies
I lost contact with two of my best friends
I would get a strange smile or frown in my face.
Very clumsy
I would snap at people, become angry, extremely depressed/suicidal, and irritable
I thought every negative interaction I experienced with people was because I am black
I would my best friends were lying to me when I later found out they werent
I converted to Islam and became extremely religious or philosophical-I would give people philosophical answers to simple question
Once I heard the doorbell ringing when it wasnt-my brother told me it wasnt
I and revered as strange by most of the people I know
Bright lights hurt my eyes
I think the world is a cruel harsh place
In my childhood my other thought I had a conduct disorder
Poor concentration in school
I have been diagnosed with bipolar, major depression, and adhd, but my new doctor thicks that these are all related to schizophrenia
Please give me feedback

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Anyways, I'm really sorry you are suffereing with this illness. I hope you find relief from it soon as is possible. Stay strong.
