What happens when you realize the foundation of everything you knew about yourself and life in general is shattered? How do you cope when it’s found that your own mind, and even reality itself, is playing tricks on you? Is it even possible to adapt to a bizarre, unforgiving, and even horrifying mindscape?
These challenging questions and others will be explored in this book. This autobiography tells a tale of a young man as he struggles to function in life while experiencing very unusual circumstances. The tale explains his experience while battling some of the most disturbing psychotic thoughts.
This is a story of wonder, extreme challenges, and eventual plateau into some form of success. This book not only demonstrates the problems and stressors common with the illness called schizophrenia but also highlights methods, techniques, and useful solutions to some of the most challenging and slippery mental conundrums that one might encounter during psychosis.
Initially, the author had never learned or known much about the debilitating illness known as schizophrenia. The author grew up in a relatively normal household and lived a relatively unremarkable life until his first major psychotic episode. It was a complete surprise to him to be diagnosed with such a serious illness that he knew nothing about. Now, it has been over two and half decades since that first harrowing encounter with mental illness. At this point, the author is now battle-hardened and experienced with mental illness. Hopefully, his hard-won knowledge and experience in dealing with such things will help others overcome their own demons and educate mental health professionals in an effort to have greater insight into their patients struggles.
