LOL! Yeah I'll send you mine too. Plus "pedigree" papers from the psychiatrist! OK for instance I hear voices and during the worst part of my illness (12 yrs. ago) I believed that things were happening that really weren't. I believed that my parents were trying to sabotage my social life by spraying odors into my room and I also thought they were stealing things from me. I believed that my best friend's "moms" were evil snakes that took the form of women and were holding her hostage and trying to ruin our friendship. There's alot of other crazy delusional thing that go along with it, like government conspiracies. It's an uneasy feeling like people are bad things trying to get you. I hope that gives you a little insight.
I'm not on any medications, I manage in other ways. I convinced myself none of it was real, but by doing so I now have avoidant personality disorder. But I'll take being an *ss*le over being crazy any day.
*Note* She should see a psychiatrist or atleast a phychologist to help her get back to normal. They will know what typ of treatment she needs.
Please give me the points, and I'll email you my life story.

excuse me. Schizophrenia, not Schitzophrenia (no "t").
"Surviving Schizophrenia" by Dr. E. Fuller Torrey is a very good book on the subject.
