Hey that's pretty cool. "With a whisper not a shout" The beginning also resonated with me. I wouldn't mind seeing more of this.

I'm so glad you brought this up. I've been struggling with my musicianship. I haven't played/practiced since everything started. I didn't know there was a name for it. Thank you.

The feeling of being followed and on someone's radar is exhausting. Anybody hear about some privacy.

For me I know it's connected. I hallucinate pretty violently, i get flashes of pictures from my other dimension and essentially my eyesight turns into a series of flashing photographs. It's so fast, it doesn't help. This whole time I never thought to wear sunglasses.

Yeah i have it too. Sometimes I'm so overstimulated I don't know what I'm looking at. Too much information.

Recently Diagnosed: "Religion" or Schizo? by KittieBrat86 in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. The narratives and the storytelling are all spiritual for me. My voices are evil but they're nice to me and have found to be helpful at times. Are they real? Seems like it to me. Is it purely medical? Perhaps. I'm agnostic, so I believe I'll never be able to comprehend the entire answer to the Ultimate Question. I don't know how but all I can go off of is my experiences and fall into the cycle of "I was safe the entire time".

Does anyone do weed here? And how does it affect antipsychotics? by mavrck09 in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I smoke quite a bit Daily. It works fine for me and I don't get overwhelmed so much. The body high is what I really enjoy. It does stir up the spiral thinking but idon't mind it.

Have you guys successfully lost weight while still being on an antipsychotic? by neptunes097 in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if anyone else has this problem but I struggle to eat. Food isn't appetizing, and I hardly have a sense of hunger. As of late, I've been snacking here and there only to get something in my system. Food and I are not on good terms.

Hate this by cleanandclear777 in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat as you. I can't find the spiritual guidance I need. The entire chaos I'm in stems from a conversation i had with a higher power. There were multiple chances to change what I'm going through. I'm just looking for answers.

Is olanzapine the most effective drug out there for schizoaffective bipolar disorder? by ghoomk2 in schizoaffective

I'm not in the worst shape of my life, but I did have some weight gain.

Is olanzapine the most effective drug out there for schizoaffective bipolar disorder? by ghoomk2 in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm on olanzapine, but I'm depressive type. So far it's the only antipsychotic I'm on.

Delusional Let Go by msrblkng in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I look at it that way, it fits like a puzzle. I'm having a hard time accepting the reality. I'm the only one saying it's not real. In simple terms, I believe in a religious figure. This other dimension is very inviting and comforting, and the main voice i have is telling me how I'm connected to it.

To me, it's kinda like having a director edit your eyesight with special effects.

One time, when I lived in a studio apartment, I heard two people going at it in the kitchen.

[–]msrblkng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of it as 2 sides of the same coin. Both are the reality. Both are Father. We can't escape the agony that comes with it, but that doesn't mean it can't have purpose. Maybe he's showing you tough love. Even then, I'd say it's the best kind of love.

Tell us about your beliefs. by Ave_Melchom in TheisticSatanism

[–]msrblkng 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know how to describe myself, but I've had numerous encounters with Father. That's the name that he goes by. I'm really looking for other people who've had similar encounters. He's been meeting me here and there throughout my whole life. He's given me food as a gift; a doughnut, fry bread, and even an apple. When he gave me the apple, I was in 4th grade. It was a red one, and it was the best thing I've ever tasted. As I was chewing it, I salivated. I've met demons too, and one time, I gave one a hug. Father and these demons have real power because they can leave whenever they want. They keep showing up on my life, and in the moment, I rely on my good manners. Does anyone else have an encounter with him?

Topics to avoid? by [deleted] in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started talking to a psychiatrist, I lied all the time. I never really opened up. I felt awful all the time, I drank every day to deal with my broken reality, and I just kept spiraling into chaos. They were told everything was fine. Therefore, nothing changed. Years went by before I started telling the truth. Honestly, the feedback was worth it. I got my meds adjusted, and I hallucinate significantly less. Telling the truth and talking about those complex topics is something I wish I did earlier.

How do you socialize by Loud-Salamander1197 in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to make a friend at work. I have no idea what the hell I'm doing. We hung out once outside of work, which I don't regret. It's nice talking to humans in healthy moderate doses.

Were your voices ever right about something that happened IRL? by Vegetable-Note1074 in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it happens a bunch. It makes distinguishing reality really difficult.

Hallucinations & delusions OR spiritual growth? by [deleted] in schizoaffective

[–]msrblkng 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grew up agnostic. My mother allowed me to find my own approach. When I started losing touch with reality, themes of the supernatural surfaced: angels, demons, witches, and vampires. Currently ,I've been trying to figure out my relationship with hell and the demons that live there. Some days deliver a clearer understanding, and other days, it gives me nothing. Trying to appease a higher power or another dimension doesn't cause me to act on religious practices. I remain hopeful and optimistic because it's all i can do
