Message | Hi. You have interesting ideas and seem to be a very deep and introspective person. It's funny, how similar we are. It's hard not to notice "groups" of people's thinking and behavior, even worse when you're the one being analyzed. I also have schizo something or other, schizoaffective. I noticed that after I developed my intuition and practiced visualization every day for a few minutes to half hour, I began having an increase in cognition but also in pos/itive symptoms, which points to a deficit or learned pattern of behavior possibly?
Anyways, I had a vision of an african man who cleared my subconscious of this "darkness" which was giving me nightmares and paralysis. Once it was gone, I realized that this attachment had been kind of like a pool of obsessive thoughts or behaviors.
I think a lot of us can be cured through pattern reintigration and psychology, not just meds. Meds should be the start, then weaned off, then rehabilitated through therapy...but this chronic illness model is exasperating. I never know if I'll recover fully and I'm told I wont even though I'm in the high functioning spectrum...if there is a spectrum for schizophrenia I would be in the high functioning...
Autism, OCD, and Schizophrenia share similarities of pattern deficits and repetition. My symptoms started like that...walking in circles, moving my hands, pacing, etc. I think it may be possible that it IS a combination of different unknown cognitive habits or deficits. |
