Me either. I know they can get pills to make the hullucinations and *voices* go away, but it would be so hard.

Someone said something the other day that still has me smiling: If you saw a burning bush and God spoke to you from the bush and told you to do something you'd be given 300 mg in today's world. Don't even get me started on a talking snake that is Satan who wants you to eat some fruit. My mammaw has spoken to the air/herself/spirits ever since I was a toddler...I'd walk into the kitchen and she'd just be having a full conversation with someone. She never tried to put anything in my papaw's cornflakes though, so we just let her talk. Speaking of Schizo: 'Vampire Slayer' Shoots Man In Face www.local6.com/news/2921701/detail.html

Is that what your brother is on? My grandmother switched to that medication but just at 75mg and I read that some people have to go as high as 300 mg. She's still nutso-- she's convinced that my grandfather is a monster who is trying to kill her (she actually covers her head with a sheet whenever he walks by), my aunt is trying to kill her by putting something in her chocolate milk, and the lady who does the weather on NBC gossips about my grandmother. Oh, and did you know that they named a flavor of bluebell icecream after my grandmother? Because she's so famous and the world absolutely loves her. Ooooh, and Oprah is sneaking in the bushes trying to take nude photographs of my grandmother while she's taking a shower... because that's how Oprah made her billions of dollars by selling pictures of my grandmother. CRAZZZZZZZZZY LADDDDY. You sound like you don't care about your grandmother, the way your acting all sarcastic. It's not her fault. She OLD! The brain dosn't function like it used to.

My brother has autisim. You think I don't know what it's like living with someone with a diabillity? Try living with someone who everyday has at least one break down. I love my brother alot, but it's hard. I also have a deaf grandmother, a grandmother who had a stroke which impairs her speech, a depressed bi-polar best friend and a diabetic father, who never seems to acknowledge how hard I try to get over my personal problems. I realise that you love your grandmother, but I only meant that the way you said it sounded to me like you didn't care. But obviously you do. It's a computer thing. It's almost impossible to tell what in what tone someone is saying something. So, before you tell me to screw off,(which you can go do yourself, thank you very much) think that maybe I hadn't understood in what context you said that in. And I know life isn't peachy keen. Just because someone hasn't gone through the exact thing that you have, dosn't mean they don't know things like that happen. And I do. Beleive me, I do.

Then again you are from the backwoods from Tennessee so I'm surprised your entire family isn't that way. No hugs for you, palooka.

I don't dislike you! I don't always agree with your opinions, but I respect you. I'll let Kobo keep Bob, and I'll save swans from become a kindergartener's glue stick. I think if you commited a crime and your mentally ill, you should have to serve soem time, but go into therapy. It seems fair. You get punished for what you did, but you get help.

Syd Barret. he was the old frontman, as said earlier, i think.
isnt schizophrenia also called double headed? or is that something else... it was a trivial pursuit question and i cant remember if that was right or not..
