Ask A Schizophrenic

[Marshal Matt Dillon]

Ok here is a serious question.
Do you believe other mental illnesses should be afforded special rights over your condition? Such as males pissing in the female restroom.
Why can't schizos being afforded the same rights as when they believe they are president?

I appreciate your honesty.

Here’s what I believe. People don’t really have a right to be dangerous. If they are determined to be dangerous and unsafe, they need to be put in an institution, until determined safe and stable by their doctors.

If someone believes, quite falsely, that they are president - that’s dangerous to themselves and others. They don’t have a right to walk around that unstable, in a free society.

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

I'm a schizophrenic,

And so am I...




Yeah, I know... DID is no a diagnosis commonly associated with schizophrenia. It's a decades old poem from Oscar Levant.


I suppose you know what sort of blow-back your candor will potentially generate... be that as it may, you may want to consider asking a Mod to delete this thread...

Will keep that in mind - thanks.

I am a diagnosed schizophrenic.

Ask me nearly anything and I’ll respond. I won’t be offended.

The purpose of this thread is to clear up any misunderstandings about mental illness.

The mental health crisis is a national security issue.

I’m ready to do my part, to help fix the problem.

Ask away.

How many iterations of you are registered on USMB?

 

[Marshal Matt Dillon]

How many iterations of you are registered on USMB?

LOL - just me.

......

 

[Marshal Matt Dillon]

......

LOL - schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder are two different things.

Here's my last experience with the last schizophrenic i know.
Four years ago a dude I knew from high school knocked on my door trying to sell me mulch for my flower bed
I told him I didnt need his services.
I finally got him to leave me alone.
I sold him a trailer for cheap and he wouldnt go away.
He left the trailer gate in my garage for at least 4 years.
I put the ramp in my driveway for the last three weeks.
He finally picked it up today.
I was about ready to tell him to fuck off.

Sorry you had that experience. Sounds like he took advantage of you.

What do you think of Joe Biden ?

 

[skye]

What do you think of Joe Biden ?

So what do you think of Biden?

 

[Marshal Matt Dillon]

What do you think of Joe Biden ?

I think he should step aside, due to age and stress. Give someone else a chance in 2024.

Ok then. What do the voices in your head tell you?

If they tell you to vote for Joe Biden in 2024, tell them to shut the hell up.

That’s actually funny, Galt. Thanks for showing up for the party.

Do you like President Trump?

 

[Marshal Matt Dillon]

Do you like President Trump?

I like everyone. Like Will Rodgers.

I like Trump’s determination and perseverance.

I had an aunt that was schizophrenic. She was scary beyond all imagining. She got much worse as she got older. Tried to kill me twice when I was 6 or 7, and my mom gave me a knuckle to the brain for "tellin stories". I don't remember how she found out the truth, but dear aunty was off to the farm for shock treatments soon after that.

They never did help her out much. Times were harder before the meds they have today, I guess.

 

[Marshal Matt Dillon]

I will be back tomorrow. G’night and thanks to all who replied here.

Actually he didnt.
Him being a nut job I knew where he was coming from.
For some reason he wanted to keep in touch with me.
He got fired for harassing a girl he worked with a few years back from a company he worked for.
The dude is a nut bag.
I live in a gated community where the streets cleary say Private!!!
Google isnt even allowed to map our streets.

 

[lennypartiv]

but silence is not silent!

there is something called the voice of silence.

Is that comparable to the cone of silence?
