thank you, you as well

Is it true that you said you are happy and proud of your good grade in English? That's a good thing I will say. Whatever the thing is, no matter how "small" it might seem to you/other, I say rely on that "small" happiness. I think your dad is being illogical though, studying for 12 hours? I doubt anyone can do that. Even people without illness will go "crazy" by doing so. How about do a little strategy? Study when your dad is about to leave house and then study again when he's about to come home. That way, he will see that you are always studying?

I know lying to our parents is a bad thing. But if doing what they asked us making our condition even worse, I believe they don't want that to happen either. Besides, if we are getting more and more stressed out, we won't be able to study anyway right? Better to study just a few hours but fully concentrate.

Bluebird, take care of your wounds now please. Make sure it won't bleeding again

I'll be honest I got triggered by the self harm forum and thinking about how it feels. Guess I'll stay away from that board for now.

i like this idea!

I'm sorry you're experiencing that amount of anxiety. I hope you'll feel a lot better once you're on your way back to NY.

I've had a busy day so I'm trying to catch up and read all the posts. This one caught my eye because I'm in some kind of denial about taking meds "for life". The same explanation was given to me about being diabetic, too. Must be a common explanation. I have good days and bad ones, too.
I remember how sick I was and being hospitalized 3 times and I don't want that at all. But I still have a hard time taking my meds consistently because I think it's harming my body long term. My kidneys, liver and brain. I thought it was tainting my blood, too. My pdoc says that the meds don't stay in my blood so that's good. And she says that I have to balance my decision, being sick like before meds or take meds every day.

Since I had the long talk with her I have concluded to trust the process and take my meds because I'm tired of chatter, hallucinations, paranoia, anxiety, depression, delusions, and mood swings. Sometimes I just want peace and quiet. That's not too much to ask for, is it?

I can relate to this with my parents. My Mum just keeps arguing with me. No matter how many times I told her that if I tried to convince her that the sky was green, it would be a pretty futile exercise!

-------------------

I don't agree that 'meds for life' is inevitable, and it certainly isn't like type 1 diabetes IMO where people automatically die without insulin replacement. Perhaps one could argue a case for similarity with type 2 diabetes...lifestyle changes can help a lot, but for some who it doesn't (or who won't/aren't able to stick to the lifestyle requirements) meds can be used short term (type 2 diabetes can be reversible with hard work). Then a very small number with T2D need insulin every day for the rest of their life.

If other ways of coping don't work, or the person prefers to pop a pill instead, then fair enough, I respect their right to choose that option, like I would want them to respect my right to choose not to. But IMO the overwhelming pessimism surrounding sz creates a self-fulfilling prophecy for many.

ETA: I realise this is a very contentious issue, but this is just my opinion. I'm not attempting to tell anyone else how to live their life.

They are still poisoning me. All night long, the bug spray. I am afraid I'll die.

OMGosh! You should consider some zopiclone or a rubber mallet lol

Hug hugsand more squeezeie hugs for Hyper!

Its been a very long day for me. More to do than i have hrs., in the day ta do them.
Im findin out that some of my meds are probaly manufautured in china or inda. Im really pissed about the sorry state of affairs of the way the North American Contient is being runned. B***a*ds effiers. And im sick of the pharmacy playing mind f***ing games wit me!
Hope everybody has a good nights sleep!

I think 12 hours is wholly unrealistic for 2 college courses, never mind in general. I think there are very few instances in which people study 12 hours a day.

Your courses are condensed right? Even so, I reckon doing a couple of hours of solid work for each subject a day is probably adequate.

Hard to know, depends on the workload & you as well... some people can get away with doing less work than others.

Are all your course materials spoon fed, or do you have to look stuff up? That makes a difference too.

Good morning!
I slept well, but of course it wasn't enough lol. I didn't want to get up.
What does everyone have planned for today? I have some work to do later today.
I hope you all have a good day!
