Category Archives: Schizophrenia

I recall a few specific incidents after the move to Missoula, some aspects of how schizophrenia affected school, and how it caused me to develop panic disorder, which I am still recovering from. I mention the comfort of music and a memory of my first friend in Missoula.

In this part, I expand on my experience with my romantic relationship around the mid-point of my major psychotic episode, especially during an exotic trip with him. This includes how the voices reacted to him and how that affected me.

In this third installment, I explain why I quit the volleyball team, how schizophrenia stole soccer from me, and a brief bit about my withdrawal from my social groups.

My second piece about being diagnosed with schizophrenia includes some more of my memories before I was diagnosed, about symptoms and expressing the issues to my mom, and then the beginnings of how the worst symptoms affected my relationships with others.

The first part in my first topic request on my experiences with schizophrenia, mostly about being diagnosed. I talk about hallucinations and initial symptoms, which could be common warning signs in children and adolescents.
