Can someone who went through symptoms identical to schitzophrenia and diagnosed with it for over 2 years stop having hallucinations and delusions without medication? Or would the diagnosis be wrong and it was another mental dissorder?

Lincoln liked to tell stories. One story he told was about a dream. he dreamed that he was sith a group of ordinary people. one of them said about the president,"he's a common looking man." lincoln heard this remark.
he looked at the people in the group and answered, " common looking people are the best in the world that is the reason the lord makes so many of them."

i think common looking means citizens right ?

me to meet with him after church which I went to do but as I entered the church... he was being led away in handcuffs. Why did I dream this? I need to say... my Bishop is 38 years old and attractive. This is not the first time I had a dream about he and I. The dreams are about attraction. Nothing sexual. Thank God for that.

I am friends with a girl that has no self-censor. She says whatever comes to her mind without giving thought if it can offend someone. We were hanging out yesterday and I wanted to stand in the open where guys could see us and I could flirt. She then began to tell me that I am the most "on the prowl person she had ever met" and then asked me if I had low self esteem. I told her that I was confident with my looks and liked to be seen, flirting with boys is fun. I was then pointing out a guy I have a little crush on and she said really rudely, "that is like so 12 years old". I think that is a little weird, most people just want to have fun, I have never met anyone that can't loosen up and just have fun. I think maybe she has her own issues so she has to be critical of others to make herself feel better. Do you think I should say something to her about it or ignore her until it happens again?

I've felt like this for 4 years. I am extremely moody, hypersensitive, insecure, jealous, envious, resentfual, I sometimes go in rages of anger, fear and anxiety and extreme worry. My current living situation, with my parents and younger teenage siblings isn't helping but make these symptoms worse. I feel as if my life is in a rut. I'm working a temp job, I have a degree, and no money. I want to improve my life, which is what i'm working on now, but in the mean time the emotional mood swings don't help. Sometimes I stop the process of improving myself from time to time because of intense feelings of jealousy, envy, and dispare. I don't want to accomplish anything in my life based on pety feelings.
When the mood swings get really bad, every little thing agrivates me especially the company of other people ( my family who lives with me.

So I've been browsing some resolved questions here on Y! Answers and an interesting question popped into my head. I tend to think deeply about a lot of things, and keep to myself a lot of the time; I'm a definite introvert. I know that several authorities in the psych field seem to think that introversion is a strength. I don't agree with this... I mean society ultimately defines right and wrong, correct? I think it is only a fact of this society that this is so. Therefore, I'm defective in this sense.

I'm shy but I'm trying to come out of my shell. But I have one problem...like a said above, I think deeply. I often retreat into my mind, and let the thoughts run wild. I have scored a few friends but I can't shake this depressive feeling. I just want to "get with it", get out of this habit of self-absorbtion, and be more extraverted.

So! could this habit make a person depressed? Is there a surefire way to remove my introversion? Please tell me.

I would like to use self hypnosis on myself to improve on things in my life.like being more social,getting rid of the fear of oral reports for school,motivate myself to participate in class, motivate myself to do all my school work, confidence in dance class,my self confidence etc
what i do now is i find a quite alone time. and sit in my chair. and i breathe deeply. (right now im focusing on the oral speech thing) i breathe deeply inward breathing in self confidence and boldness and social skills and breathe out the shy in me and the self doubt. i do that and think of what i want to achieve and i become in a relaxed state.idk if its hypnotic state though

i can hear everything around me.if i wanted to I can still breifly think of something completely random.how do i know if im actualy hypnotizing myself?when i open my eyes i feel rested and relaxed. i feel confident and like this bold person.how often should i do this too see more results and completely change myself?

I have been having these horrible nightmares. These dreams concern my best friends. These dreams are similar to the ones I had right before my girlfriend died. I had dreams about her suffering right before she died. I have almost no memory of them but all I can remember is her in pain and suffering and then I could not get her and these images out of my head until she died. My best friends in my dreams die. I have been having these dreams for over lets say a week in a half. I don't want them to become real! Ever since I have been getting these nightmares, I have been overly protective and concerned. Do I need help? Am I having these dreams because I am way to close to my best friends.

It all started with a situation last November.. when a lot of self-esteem/ confidence issues had been building up, and a guy who I had a mini-crush on that'd danced with me and given me attention ended up thinking my best friend was hot. It killed me and triggered a four month depression of self-hate/ mutilation and confusion. I felt used by that guy for one night and people had always told me that I was prettier than my best friend. However, by four months, I had started coming out of that phase, and I also found out that this guy who I'd thought used me thought I was hot but he and my friend sort of had this thing now. And I didn't care anymore!

But after these few months, I can't be the same. I feel a whole lot better, but everytime someone thinks my best friend is hot or cute, I get filled with this anxiety and get put into that depressed state. I think it's an inferiority complex I developed but I don't understand any of it or how to get out of it. It only happens with her too!
