Is it right to be called crazy if your are schizophrenic?
I personally think its not. It hurts to be called name and its even worst when your best friend doesnt like you because your schizophrenic and she calls you crazy infront of your face.
Has this happened to anyone???

my ex used to call me crazy and i got so defensive.
it makes me feel like it isnt mine to own anymore.... like somehow theyve taken something from me, then thrown it at my face....
does that make sense?
i just think nobody has a right to judge or name call.

well, it is and it is not.

I think its totally dependant on how you feel about being called crazy.

I call myself crazy all the time. I also call myself sanely challenged heehee

I think though that if they are your friend, then they should know how you feel.

((((((hugs)))))) sorry you are hurting.
be strong!

<font color="purple"> I am sorry that you are hurting... (((((((((milly)))))))))) For me personally, I am not offended by being called crazy, I refer to myself that way often, to me its like being called creative. I dont put much power in words for the most part. When people revert to name calling they are expressing their insecurities because they dont understand and are afraid or even frustrated. But for some people words cut deep, I just happen to not be one of those people. </font>

I feel the same way as Serenity, I know Im mad as a hatter, but most people that care about me have trouble accepting that. I really dont care, but other people seem to view mental problems as a huge deal and something to be ashamed of.

Basically,people just dont have a clue.

no its not, but people only do it because they really dont understand what is going on with your illness. they are so niave that they become blind and are unable to understand that that term can hurt.another thing is is the basic reason for bullying and poking fn at other people: it is to make them feel bigger than they really are by making you seem and feel smaller. it is the superiority complex. honestly, you shouldnt let that get to you. people will be people, all you have to do is concentrate on being you. best wishes.

(((((((((((((( Milly ))))))))))))))

That person is not your friend! Friend don't call each other hurtful names or demean each other in front of people. Yes, friends disagree sometimes, but they don't do bad things like that to each other. I highly suggest you rethink being around that person.

Hugs,

Jan
