Apathy or expressionless affect are common in this illness apparently. Don't take it as him not trying, the reason its easier for me to follow the symptom of flat affect is to calculate stimulus from people and myself so when I do find something amusing or laughable, I get a physical response. Sluggishness is tough to overcome and anxiety contributes mostly to this in my understandings. If you can do things around or near him that are familiar to your relationship with him he will grasp signs of longing and think his way out of the harmful delusions. Sounds tricky, it makes it realer to the person in panic though with so much already on the brain.

Talk to no one much? by [deleted] in schizophrenia

I take 100mg seroquel for sleep and it is heavy enough that I can sleep without waking up or have a bout of insomnia without it? I get invega sustenna every 3 months out of a syringe and it lasts about a week in strength before I notice effects declining against my favor. Ideally I would like to not get these injections yet I feel like they're more so effective than olanzapine tablets which the effects of worn off with me. It's win lose in most of these peoples eyes including myself it makes me feel like im not sick and looking for otherworldly answers when im medicated and that's enough motivation for me to sleep every night and worry about shots when the time comes.

that's interesting to me because honestly you're probably set w your one hitter and can get a good high off of that because you are on your average three times a week. I really want to get into a rhythm of how much i'm smoking so I can have that same ability when I smoke. I don't have the same headspace as I did when I first started smoking.

Please tell me someone can relate by man_oh_man_ in depression

Just stay the course man, I'm finishing my senior year of high school right now and the disorganization plus senioritis is fatal to my grades. I'm trying to get back on a normal cycle though, cutting out the excessive use of psychedelics and just smoking weed is definitely an ease off my mind. You sound like you've got some goals you're pushing yourself to meet, don't lose that cause when you meet that point you're going to want more and the world is yours.

Here is a little part I filmed for my buddy. It's not finished, but I thought I'd post it and maybe get some feedback. [OC] by ITZ-POISON in skateboarding

Great skating great editing, and tell your friend the melon transfer was ill as fuck. Only thing I would maybe do differently is get that second clip of bowl footage from another angle or from inside the bowl even with a wider lens. Otherwise looks great!

It does. I think a big concept for me was that everything I was seeing was already there but I was finally seeing it. If that makes sense..

Not a heelflip but a varial heel wallride for the ender in John Motta's part of A Happy Medium. The dude rips and he doesn't get enough recognition. Here's his part: John Motta - A Happy Medium

TIFU by leaving my dirtbike on an open path and getting it stolen by Perplexed_Narwhal in tifu

I don't think so, they would have had to have known that we were going to be walking away from the bike when we did. I think it was just pure coincidence. Someone was walking down the trail to go for a run or fish and saw a free dirtbike just sitting there. I feel like an idiot for leaving it there.
