You said you have schizophrenia. I'm not sure if it's a mental illness or just a different way of thinking. I've known people in real life who were schizophrenics and they acted normal for the most part.

I was diagnosed with it haphazardly by a Vietnamese doctor. I don't have it, I think.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

Dr Thomas Szasz is a famous psychiatrist who argued that there is no such thing as mental illness.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Szasz

One of Szasz’s basic arguments is that mental illness is a myth. He was highly critical of the so-called medical model for understanding human struggles and difficulties.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/reality-play/201209/revisiting-the-myth-mental-illness-and-thomas-szasz
Szasz argues that the word schizophrenia does not stand for a genuine disease, that psychiatry has invented the concept as a sacred symbol to justify the practice of locking up people against their will and treating them with a variety of unwanted, unsolicited, and damaging interventions.

L. Ron Hubbard and Tom Cruise don't believe in it either. When someone demonstrated symptoms of ANYTHING that could be perceived as anxiety, depression, or generally not being happy all the time, their solution was solitary confinement, forced labour, starvation…

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

You can't compare Dr Szasz's critique of his own profession in which he had a doctorate and years of practice to a nutty religious cult.

However, there may be something to Scientology's methods because many members are very successful people.

Also, if you compare Christina's zest for life and creativity to some of the 'others' here who are confined to mental institutions, I'd say Christina's unconventional attitude and independence works for her.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

Hmmm. I'll tell you what's a disgrace. The disgrace is a health care industry which has triggered an opioid addiction epidemic for over proscribing the pain killer. The disgrace is the fact that children are given Ritalin to make them more manageable. There is a Xanax addiction epidemic among teenagers spurred by that same health industry's over prescription to control anxiety.

So follow doctor's orders, right?

Do you know that almost 20,000 lobotomies were performed in the U.S. in the 1940's and 50's to "cure" schizophrenia and other so-called mental illnesses?

Lets not even mention that until 1973 that same psychological establishment called homosexuality a mental illness. There are currently health care professionals conducting "conversion therapy" for gays and lesbians

Yes, we need more professionals like Dr Szasz to criticize and reform the treatment of mental health in the U.S.

As for Scientology, people choose to join that cult. People with schizophrenia and other "mental illnesses" are forced into institutions against their will.

Christina is doing fine living at home. We know the other one in an institution is not so fine.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

I'm shocked that you, of all people, are falling for this shite.

The "problem" is not the drugs, not the guns, not the benzos, not the pain killers, not the alcohol. The "problem" is WHY. That's what people with your mentality never give a fuck about, and yet it's the most important question.

WHY do we have so many people in pain? Linking people who are in chronic pain and need medication, or depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc., and need medication,…are not the same as linking them with "addiction." Shame on you, Gameboy, you should know better.

How do you explain all the people who drink alcohol without becoming alcoholics, or take pain meds or psych meds without becoming addicts? Do you even understand the difference between dependence and addiction?

WHY? Is someone hurting themselves, cutting, engaging in promiscuous and dangerous events to try and not feel? Or to feel? I'll bet you think it doesn't matter. I'll bet you think if we just stop Rx'ing drugs, and hell, maybe even take away guns, and ban alcohol, all the problems will be solved, right? Yep, that'll work.

There are genetic factors that need to be looked at. Most of the time, the addict has trauma in their past, and if THAT, which is the "WHY", is never addressed, the person "self-medicates" through whatever means. You might be dry from alcohol, but you'll get your "fix" through promiscuous sex. That still makes you an addict who has refused to address the "WHY" of it all.

That dismissive attitude is just adding trauma upon trauma and doing greater damage. A lack of education, and a desire to paint everyone with the same sweeping brush stroke creates severe collateral damage.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

I think it's deplorable the way people here treat you and also talk about you as if you aren't even here or that you're not even aware they are talking about you.

Bring. More. Sheep.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

I know!

One of the posters seems to have an issue.

I know it's very acute of you to notice.

I get along fine with people in real life. I think sometimes people are out to get me. I was upset and went off when I read the death threat to someone in my topic… They are pretending to be connected to people monitoring me in private maybe, like someone I like really sent the message. I'm treading some dangerous waters.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

I respect you, Christina. You’re an intelligent woman who can hold her own, and you’re way more of a person than all of the ones who attempt to denigrate you combined. On top of that, I’ve always admired your innovation in your posts and the fact that you’re down to Earth.

Don’t let your naysayers bring you down, and just be yourself.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

Thank you so much for the nice things you said about me.

I feel sorry for other posters who don't have it in them to shoot/aim for something higher. I made my own forum in hopes people would post there who are into posting longer posts of a philosophical nature.

I do try to be normal, kinda like I am personality-wise, just do things to have a good life, cherish treasures in life, etc., like having good parents, turning out to be unique in some way, etc. I try to post in such a way that garners an easy response, rather than make readers toil to reach me. Sometimes, I like to have fun and make it harder.

Thanks for the advice, too, I will try not to have trouble with others and be sorry for if I did/do still for whatever reason.

Thanks!

I think that accurately sums up what a good majority of us are like on Filmboards, Christina. As Margo said down below, it’s best to just focus on those who care about you since those are the ones who are there for you. I can confidently say that most of us enjoy the fact that you’re here with us.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

That's funny you think a lot of posters here are like me because a lot of the other ones are also really weird. I feel more like a normal person than a weird person..

Yea, I will try to focus on what I can.

Thanks! I'm glad you're here, too. I was interested in sports near the end of high school, but my college didn't have football.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

I wouldn't worry about what people here think.
Christina, You are just fine as you are. I enjoy reading your posts. Many of us like you. Don't be upset by some of the things people say here. I have learned that it isn't worth the trouble of getting upset over something strangers say.
The only ones who matter in your life are the people you know…. the people who love you.

You asked a pretty question; I've given you the ugly answer.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

Thanks!

Yea, I am a certain way, and others have certain opinions about my oddball posts and may always hold me to those..

Yes, I am sad and ashamed for the loss of my mom and my dad's likely terminal illness. I care about them, even if I left home for college before and want to leave again to live elsewhere.

So, it is a little awkward and alone, but I can care for myself like an adult.

Christina, I’m very serious. You’ve let your pussy be a well to nowhere for 33 years. The time is now to unlock the cobwebs and moisturize with some dick.

If only everyone were so lucky to have me as their first.

Kiss my black ass! Toodles!

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

I'm flattered, but I don't really want sex. Only to have a daughter (which you can use a book to be naturally 99% accurate I think.)

You don’t know what you want period. I know what you want. More than that, I know what you need.

Submit your will and grace will take pity on you.

I’m going to DM you an address to a Four Seasons Hotel in NYC. I’m going to send you airfare. We are going to spend a night in passion. Your body will not stop tingling for days after I make you cum, Christina.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

Why? Is it because you think someone like Christina doesn’t want or deserve sex? Me coming into her was all a test, anyways. How do you know she’s asexual—which is something I don’t even believe exsists—if you never give her the opportunity to express herself sexually because you assume she can’t understand her own sexual impulses?

She expressed her sexual impulses in my DM.

Re: Oh no! Everyone thinks Christina's mentally ill!

It has nothing whatsoever to do with Christina, and everything to do with you being a married man who is trying to use this forum as your own personal booty call service.

Get some self-respect and take this stuff off of the board. Jesus.

If you want to fool around on your wife, I'm sure there are plenty of websites out there that cater to cheaters and those who wish to commit adultery. I suggest you go find one of those sites, because this is not the place for it.
