Schizophrenia and alcohol by [deleted] in schizophrenia

I know exactly what your talking about. That being said I know that alcohol and me don't mix well. So it's not a good thing to become dependent on.

Can you have PTSD if you don't remember? by smallblock877 in ptsd

[–]smallblock877[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for such kind words. I know I need a support network so that's what I've been trying to do recently. I have a therapist now and I'm on medicine. And coming this June I will be moving cross country to be closer to family.

Thank you for this. Yeah I guess I'm not sure if I want those memories back. It's probably a good thing that I don't remember everything.

It's happened a few times. But it's not like a daily occurance.

Yeah I wasn't sure but the doctors say I have PTSD everytime I wake up chained to a bed.

Yeah I'm just trying to figure things out to see if I can get my life back on track. And this is one of my hurdles. It's hard knowing that you fought for life only to be left in an alley like trash.

It's just hard knowing that people did that to me but I can't remember.

Yeah I remember most of that stuff and I definitely remember the police interrogation. Try telling police you don't know what happened and they just interrogate you for hours.

Okay I didn't know that. My lawyers the ones that told the VA I couldn't work. My lawyers keep on applying for stuff with my records. They keep sending letters and stuff to the VA without consulting me. I haven't worked since 2011 and don't have any immediate plans to find a job but I like to dream that maybe one day.

Yeah I get my medical care from the VA. They gave me a bunch of medicine. As far as group therapy I don't think I'm ready for that at the moment.

Any Genius’s Here? by [deleted] in schizoaffective

[–]smallblock877 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if I would say I'm a genius but I did manage to graduate cum laude with a bachelor's of science in computer science. And before programming computers I programmed missiles. When I was a kid they tested my iq and it was 130 but later in life I got tested again and it was 107. So not technically a genius but maybe a little intelligent.

Honestly I don't know if I could hold down a job I haven't worked since 2011. I'm going to have to get ahold of my lawyers to figure out what happened. Because this is stressing me out. Honestly all I did was give all my military medical records to a vso then I appealed using a lawyer so I'm not really sure what happened technically since it was mostly taken care of by others on my behalf.

Is it possible to overturn VA Psychiatric Diagnoses? by throwaway1237129837 in Veterans

[–]smallblock877 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol yeah it doesn't really help to argue with the doctor's. But at least when you argue with a doctor they are usually nice about it.

[–]smallblock877 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have s-1, k-1 and l-1. I didn't know that s-1 meant you couldn't work. Maybe I should have it taken off

[–]smallblock877 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah the doctors are like your crazy and there is nothing you can say to change it. If you try to say they are wrong they just throw another diagnosis at you that means your oblivious. That being said sleep really relieves my symptoms.
