Today I read "Most do not return to their prior state of mental function. Yet several long-term studies reveal that about one-half to two-thirds of people with schizophrenia significantly improve or recover, some completely". A couple years ago that was 20 to 30 percent that recover, and before they even said in the hospital that "I will have to take the meds for the rest of my life".
I have always thought that I am not mentally ill. I have always thought that someone makes those voices that were controlling my thoughts and making comments to them.
Don't you think it is entirely possible that I never was "schizophrenic", but just a political prisoner, and that the leaders of society have decided, in the last couple of years, that they will "incarcerate people in that mental jail" (that it is...both the "illness" with the "voices" but also the meds) over less time now than before? Like, it's not necessary to f*** up their entire lives, 10 years is enough?
