When I was fourteen years old, I have schizophrenia. It all started when I was in high school. I have hallucinations and I thought that I was bullied by some of my classmates. I heard something negative about myself and I always cry. When I go home from school, I cried again and I was started to freak out. My parents think that I was crazy because they don't hear something. They know that I was hallucinating and they tell me that I need to consult to a psychiatrist. At first, I said no because I was scared. My parents forced me and then I let them consult me to a psychiatrist. When I was in the hospital, I started to hallucinate again and I started to become crazy. Then I cried again of what I heard about myself when I was hallucinating. I thought that I am arrogant and ugly. That's what I heard from my hallucination. And when I was next to being consulted, I entered to the room of the psychiatrist. At first, I was scared but when he talked he was a good psychiatrist. He asked me about some information about myself then my check-up was finished. I've been consulted once a week every Saturday. When I was in school, I have always been silent and don't make friends because of my disorder. I have always been alone and don't make friends. On the day of my check-up, my psychiatrist gave me 3 types of medicine. The psychiatrist said that I need to take it before I slept. Then I follow what the doctor has been said to me. I had a difficulty on my disorder so I need to control myself from anger. I help myself to my disorder so that to get myself back to a normal person again and so I did it. I have no hallucination and I'm not angry anymore. I have been in consultation to the psychiatrist for almost 3 years and I still continue my consultation today because it has the possibility to go back again. I have been going strong on myself and I learned that I need to make friends so that to be a normal person.

It's good to have goals to focus on. One main goal in your life, a few major steps in-between, and then daily goals while you're taking care of the steps.

I'm sorry to hear all of those things you had to go through. I understand that life can be difficult, but always put your trust in Jesus. He knows you and what you are going through at this moment.
