What in the world makes you think you could "try to control it? "
Have you ever had to watch a family member or friend ,neighbor, homeless person "try to control it ?" I think not !


I know somone who had it bad and only in the last 5 years found the right meds. He was able to control it for months at a time by taking off into the bush and meditating...and using all his willpower which he also trained up to force it into submission for months before it started to come back...then he would start the whole process over again.

you cant control schizophrenia its the worst form of insanity that I have ever seen. They pump you full of Thorazine and Adavan and welbutrin and a s**tload of other drugs that I dont remember, basically the only way to have real control over it is to essentially become a zombie.


I dont think its a scary way of thinking, I think its a naive way of thinking.


Well when poeople had it 20 or even 10 years ago and had no proper meds at the time. Cases where people managed to control it as much as half the time stated to emerge. So there is case files proving that people who had it could to a certain degree control it.

This is proven in medical history although it's rare it can be done.

Well, I do have many voices, see things others don't, have uncontrollable muscle spasms, diminished emotions and trances. To be honest, I hate it. I'm going in a few days to get properly diagnosed but I can tell you, it's not fun. I go back and forth as this has been on-going for years. It likely is a form of schizophrenia. Hearing arguements where you're sometimes not involved, being told what to do, having others comment on your actions or other people's actions and most commonly, having numerous voices yell and insult you... it's not fun.

It's not like an over-active imagination as for me, I cant always control when I go back and forth. Usually in anger or stress but also when I'm relaxed, bored, tired, etc... .

And to be honest, when you tell close friends of it, some tend to leave as people don't take it very well. You're seen as being mentally unstable and when you go into trances, you have no clue of anything and when you come to, it's usually in a completely different place, sometimes others are injured or they stay further from you.

It is something I'd love to have taken away.

It is hard for someone that has nor lived thier life dealing with whst you have described here with your post and may not understand exactltly how you feel but I do understand thats its not something that can be taken lightly or just ignored and hope 'it goes away, I can see where it would be very hard to have to tell close friends and watch some of them leave with a look of 'fear or whatever on
thier face thier face . I hope the ones that don't leave will be a comfort in some way to you while going thur with being properly diagnosed and finding the right mix of meds. This is not my thread and me and another poster got way off topic and went pretty silly for a whilre here ,, I want to say I am glad you posted here so maybe when people read the title and then come to your post it will be helpful to them to understand it is not something anyone living with it would 'wish' to have in any form . I hope your treatment go smooth and helps .

that's an interesting post, some would find it quite insulting that you wish to have this condition, which is certainly quite debilitating.

it's often a condition itself to have such desires and admiration, its connected alot with 'amputee-envy'
people who have a strong desire to remove limbs, it happens with a lot of conditions, some have a very strong connection to people in comas or paraplegics.
and wish to become one.

its quite freightening, some of these conditions are ones that a great deal of people would rather die than have to live through.

you got to see it from my point of view.
I have good control over my mind. Enough to erase the effects of alcohol or pot within moderation. My obsession lies with understanding the human brain.
The progress I could make just experiancing this for a while would be emmence.

Not saying it's fun or good or anything like that. Im saying yah it would be horrible an 1 hell of an ordeal to go through but the jurney through said undisireable mental illness would be....to me at leat...invaluable or priceless.

Ive never met anyone with the kind of control over there mind as i. To be able to go from drunk to sober....high to sober... through sheer will and concentration.

I want to test the limits of my trained abilities is all it is.

no way,
sorry dude but you can't go from drunk to sober through willpower.
you can become more alert and focused than normal,
like what happens say if you're drunk and somebody has an accident, you kind of kick into action.
but you're still drunk.
