    Todays politics is confusing and negative. This is called “ Postmodernism “. Postmodernism was invented in 1970 with Jacque Derrida. This philosophy says many things. It is nihilistic. It says that objectivity does not exist. It says that words don’t represent truly what they should. Now how useful is this? Yet this philosophy influences college teachers, and the liberal arts. So, if you are confused listening, it may be because the person is “constructing Truth”. Leftists do this a lot because Postmodern philosophy has been integrated with neo Marxism. I have spent the last three years studying politics trying to unravel how I am being manipulated. -How the media is lying to me. Anyway, there is a vast pothole you can fall into if you start believing you should be constructing your “personal reality.” And this is what Postmodern philosophy is. On you Tube Postmodern professors are: Ryan Chapman Stephan Hicks 2018 Daniel Bonevac I don’t have a mental illness. But modern life gives me a tangled web I have to organize. So now I am making clear of what today’s media messages are giving me. So, if you are trying to unscramble how a person treated you, it may be because of the negative influence of Postmodernism on your conversation. Generally, Leftists use Postmodernism and Conservatives reject Postmodernism. Conservatives believe objectivity exists; Leftists reject objectivity and logic. This is by political design. Herbert Marcuse, the Father of Leftism wrote to “reject logic.” Can you see how this would affect generations of people? I hope presenting this “pothole of life” helps you to sort things out. Once I learned about this pervasive negative influence on people I became happier and less troubled by political conversations.

    NAC which is N-acetyl cystine, seems to help schizophrenic people. It is a substance good for many other problems. I use it to stop mucus clearing/ coughing. But it triggers glutathione production. See videos on NAC. This is an amino acid. It detoxifies the liver too. It is fascinating.

    I was just thinking that there is a way to slow my mind and I need to find the one which works best for me. I eat up so many nutrients because I am active both mentally and physically, that it would be more efficient to slow down and use fewer resources. I think focusing on a single thought or concept/idea rather than letting my thoughts flow much of the time, although allowing thoughts to flow is also good, just in it’s own appropriate time. I used to meditate daily and multiple times each day, yet haven’t over the past decade since life events took me in a direction away from this. I’ll continue to attempt incorporating more of this and other methods of stillness and focus. Also today, I decided that I must walk daily to better organize my thoughts and ground myself better while in connection with the outdoors. Remaining indoors too much can induce anxious feelings, so it’s helpful to strike a balance. This sounds like a book I’d like, so will look it up!

    We try again so frequently that it may be taken for granted so often that this is more than a mechanism for learning. I imagine that this happens far more frequently than any amount of roaring that we do. So much of the subtlety of life is underestimated, and we get far more satisfaction from it because this is where we build a foundation, develop confidence, tools and experience. Great message.

    Well, if we could actually cocktail all those neurochemicals into one street drug, I imagine it would be like a rollercoaster ride through the depths of hell and the pearly gates of heaven at the same time. You'd be so high that you'd think you were a unicorn flying through a rainbow, but then you'd crash so hard that you'd feel like a snail stuck in molasses. But thank goodness we don't have to resort to that kind of experimentation because our brains are already equipped with the perfect cocktail mixer. It's like having your own personal bartender in your head, constantly serving up delicious shots of dopamine, norepinephrine, anandamide, endorphins, and serotonin. And when we're in flow, it's like we're at the best bar in town, sipping on the most exquisite blend of pleasure drugs that our brains can produce. It's like winning the jackpot in the neurochemical lottery, and we're all in it to win it. So, let's raise a glass to flow, the most addictive experience on Earth. And who needs drugs when you've got a brain that can mix 'em better than any street dealer? Cheers!

    I just wanted to share with you what has really helped me with schizophrenia. I recommend oregano oil capsules with a minimum 125mg of carvacrol (I have 2-3 times a day, do not take more than 600mg). Also I eat olives in brine (6 each time twice a day). Also I take one fish oil capsule (twice a day at 1000mg) or cod liver oil capsule, in case your wondering both are omega 3 fish oil but cod liver oil has vitamin A. All these things are anti inflammatory which should help a lot with schizophrenia and are healthy. I occasionally take a natural (Naturelo) multivitamin and mineral capsule. I'm not sure if 20mg olanzapine is the best anti psychotic medication but it's what I take. I might try quetiapine and if it does not work out default back to olanzapine. I feel like I am in remission.

    Hello Matthew, thank you from The Netherlands, Europe! I have the same experience in music as you do & dancing too. I danced a lot in my life, one thing I got out of the clearings of the darkness and negativity I am still hearing, feeling is that I feel I am one with the music. I am 12 years fighting 24/7 to get it out of me. What is interesting for me is that everyone seems to believe the illness comes from drinking, smoking etc… I have drinking alcohol for a long time but have not since the illness started. As you have not been drinking alcohol it is impossible that is the cause. Why would it be for one person and not another. That is important information for me. I do still smoke sigarettes but feel more and more wanting them to go too now. I eat biological foods most days but I also have the days I am in so much pain I cannot cook. I need to watch more of your videos’s on when and how your illness started but what I seem to see a lot in common in people with voices (I have those, and they are loud!) and hallucinations is spirituality or religious beliefs. I am out of work for 12 years but Iearned gardening, drawing, painting my house, painting my furniture. It takes a long time but I do it, sometimes I do not even understand how I was able to paint…. I am so happy for you you recovered! I have been and seen many places, including Canada and USA, never any fears or exhaustion, voices or seeing energies or spirits fly, or panic attacks for 42 years. This illness is the opposite of what life can be really like. I hope you still get to do all you want to do. Thank you for sharing your experiences, it means a lot to me. Regards from Dorine. ( I recently found Lauren too, I have so much respect for her!)

    I am schizophrenic and interested in knowing if full recovery is possible. Is it ?

      I feel pretty good these days. I still take the same antipsychotic medication I've been taking since 1994, and I have no intentions of going off it. I say I have "successfully recovered". I met someone out west in Canada who had an older friend with schizophrenia, and he said he felt great, no symptoms. I'm not sure if he was on medication or not. There was an article online called "The 7 Myths of Schizophrenia" that the schizophrenia Society of Canada pointed me towards, It said that many people do recover, and that the disease can sometimes leave later in life. Always stay hopeful. You never know what tomorrow may bring. Thousands of people around the world are working on cures for schizophrenia and mental illness. You never know what they are going to find!
