seriously, after, serveral months of hearing people talk about their problems at a support group meeting i soon realized, if, they didn't have their illness they wouldn't have alife. this misery gives them something to do, something to give them an identity.

  it was almost like they wanted to hang on to what made them the way they were and they didn't want to let go of it or else it would be like who will i have now to associate with. they needed a common ground to walk on, although they talked like they would like to change, but, that created anxiety.

  then as i started to share my life story with them in detail it was clear their life situations weren't that bad and as i went on to talk about how i got to where i am today, and what i had to over-come and doing it without medication cause i had no clue medication would have helped , they wanted to change their life and do more then gt up do the same things as yesterday and walk through the day with an excuse as to why i act this way and everybody knows and has to accept it for this is who i am.

  i am afraid people with and without a mental illness has no clue how separated their personality is from their character which can lead to serious problems in a person's life. people tend to believe who they are today is the person they were intended to be when they grew up. unfortunately, they are far from the truth and when i put some things into the equation to get them to think about their childhood and compare it to day they soon realized, their life experiences has made them somebody else.

  your personality and your character were really good friends in the first few years of your life. but, as your mind soon realized all the many fascinating things at in the world and what people had to say and the bad and good things and the school of hard knocks, the ups and dones and things you may only know and not want to talk about have caused you to lose contact with your personality.

  so, what might be taking place right now with you, could be the feuding between your personality and your ever changing character. the only way to find out would be to and i'm serious, you have to turn off the tv(put a blanket over it)stop listening to the radio, stop reading magazines and the newspaper, stop listening to bad or nasty talk or gossip, and never say a lie again no matter what. try and be helpful to other  people and compliment other people's work or something they have tried to do. one more thing you cannot assume anything anymore, LIKE WHAT IF, YOUR NOSE SMELLED CHOCOLATE, BUT, YOU ASSUME ITS AN ORANGE, WHAT IF YOU TASTED A APPLE AND THOUGHT IT WAS AN ONION, YET, WE SEE OR WE HEAR A PART OF SOMETHING AND WE ARE SO SMART TO KNOW OR ASSUME. you have to learn to let THE ANSWER come to you. having an open mind is what allowed your mind to tell you its chocolate you smell, its an open mind that allowed you to taste an apple.

  look, we had everything in the right place when we were born, it was all clear and understood as to how things worked. but, along the way you had to go an rearrange things to satisfy what you didn't like and your brain started producing stange chemicals creating what you have today.

  a true story, a mother sits crying and her 10 month old baby comes over to her and puts her head on her mother's leg to comfort her. this baby's mind and brain are working together. what made her do this on her own but? as the child grows and should the mother start talking to her in a way to get the child to wonder about things even an adult may not understand this child will end up confused. now all she need are some bad things to come into her life and she could end up with having mental issues.

  studies have proven that thinking can produce chemicals, so what are you thinking about as you go through each day? what if, for every pill you took a certain brain activity would work the same as the pill. the problem with this has to do with it is much easier to take a pill.

  you may start by creating new habits, compare today to yesterday and this week to last week and month to and year to year should you find nothing is different, to fix most of your problem you may only need to find new things to do or stop doing certain things.(I MOVE THINGS AROUND IN THE KITCEN AND MY BEDROOM TO MAKE ME HAVE TO THINK ABOUT WHERE I PUT IT. ARE YOU LIVING IN A HABITED WORLD FROM THE TIME YOU WAKE UP TO THE TIME YOU GO TO BED. I ALSO TOOK OFF THE REMOTE KEY LOCK TO THE CAR AND WENT BACK TO DOING OTHER THINGS THE OLD WAY, MY FOCUS AND CONCENTRATION HAS GOTTEN MUCH STRONGER AND IT HAS HELPED GETTING ME TO THINK WHICH SOMETIMES CAUSES ME TO FORGET ABOUT MY PROBLEMS. GOOD LUCJ WITH THIS, I CHALLENGE YOU TO DO THE SAME
