Real Life

I've been away from my blog for a really long time. Its NOT because I forgot about it or because I was tired of writing. I been dealing with something in my life that I thought I would share with you. I suffer from schizophrenia. Which means I hear voices that aren't really there. I hear them 24/7. In my case they mimic my thoughts. Think of it like an annoying echo. Like when little kids copy what you say to bother you. They also comment on anything I do which is usually followed by an insult. And since I hear them 24/7 it feels like I'm being followed. It feels that real.

This is what I've been battling with since I was in highschool. After highschool I was fine but it recently returned. I stopped drawing. I stopped reading. And I stopped writing. But don't worry. I see a therapist once a week and I've been getting better. Slowly but surely. Enough so that I feel well enough to get back into doing the things I like to do.

So now you know. I hope I shed some light on the illness to everyone reading this. If your view of me has changed for the worse then I guess this is where our friendship ends. I'm still the same person you got to know so don't judge me. I guess thats all I have to say. So on to the next...
