ok, lets get this right, you people DO NOT tick me off, its the normal people that get me down sometimes. when people find out you hear voices they instanly lable you, for example, someone found out about my meds and he went and told his friends iv got a scew loose, the worse thing about it is he said it in front of me. i do keep my meds as sercert as possible. just hate people like that. whats your experinces when someone finds out your on meds for schizo?

man that sucks, I havent been on meds for long but that is one of my fears. People can be so stupid. They really have the problem. Everyone has issues. Atleast we can admit ours and get help. Sometimes I think with my meds I am more sane than "normal" people.

People who have never dealt with it just don't understand, and people are afraid of what they don't understand. That guy was very rude to you and I'm sorry. I'm not schizophrenic, but my brother is and he has people laugh at him some times too. When it matters to him he explains what it's like to live with it and how the meds keep it at bay. Other times he just scratches them off as ignorant and goes on. Life is too precious to be worrying about what someone else thinks of something you cannot control. There's nothing to be ashamed of, remember that. It's an illness, and it doesn't define who you are inside. So if someone treats you badly because of it, it's their loss, not yours.
