Schizophrenia Spectrum and Psychotic Disorders

In the void of self, a fractured mind drifts,
Untethered from reality's moorings.
Emotions flee, leaving an empty husk,
A ghost trapped in flesh, yearning for connection.

Time blurs, memories fade like smoke,
As the self dissolves into nothingness.
In this twilight realm between worlds,
We are all lost children, searching for home. #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #BorderlinePersonalityDisorderBPD #BPD #Schizophrenia #SchizophreniaSpectrumPsychoticDisorders #DissociationDisorders #dissociativedisorders #quietborderline

Hope... That ethereal creature that has nested in my soul. Its song echoes ceaselessly, wordless, yet I hear it. Sometimes a whisper, other times a scream of despair.
In my darkest moments, when the winds of fate tear at me mercilessly, its voice becomes clearest. As if defying the storm that tries to silence it. That small, unassuming spark of courage that warms me when all else fails. I've heard it in the coldest corners of my mind, on endless seas of solitude. Even in the face of the worst, it never demanded anything from me in return. It remains, selfless and loyal.
But is it a blessing or a curse? This hope that won't let me give up, forces me to fight when all I want is to rest. Its song pierces my dreams, never letting me forget my desires and aspirations.
Sometimes I wish I could silence it, pluck out those feathered wings. But I know that without it, I'd be empty, cold, devoid of purpose. So I let it sing, though its melody can be painful. For this hope, this thing with feathers, is part of me - my strength and my curse. #Schizophrenia #SchizophreniaSpectrumPsychoticDisorders #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #BPD #BorderlinePersonalityDisorderBPD

My adventure with the Nietzschean Dreamscape is downright wonderful🙄! Every morning, as I rise, I feel like Friedrich Nietzsche facing his own "Eternal Return." As I enter this surreal world, my thoughts dance in a chaotic symphony, tripping over the remnants of reality that insist on challenging my logic.
Imagine being both the creator and observer of your own narrative, like Nietzsche toying with the idea of the Übermensch while breaking the metaphorical chains of social expectations. But my Nietzschean Dreamscape offers no such freedom, at least not without cost😐. I teeter on the edge between ego and id, watching these two forces battle for supremacy in my mind.
This constant suspension, this oscillation between reality and a two-dimensional abstraction where everything simultaneously is and is not, forces me to reflect on the very essence of self😐. Nietzsche might be proud, perhaps even offering sardonic remarks about my creation of a personal philosophical realm.
I'm unsure if this is true freedom or merely an illusion, bordering on constant conflict and dichotomy. But one thing is certain: the irony of my situation lies in its extraordinary simplicity - I need no prophet to tell me I've been in the Nietzschean Dreamscape too long. #Schizophrenia #SchizophreniaSpectrumPsychoticDisorders #MentalHealth #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #quietbordereline #Psychosis #DissociationDisorders #BPD #DistractMe

Working on making the present moment your friend is a practice embraced by many who seek mindfulness and inner peace. By accepting and embracing the present moment, individuals often find greater contentment, reduced stress, and increased resilience. On the other hand, resisting the present moment can lead to frustration, anxiety, and a sense of disconnect from reality. While resistance might provide temporary relief or distraction, it usually doesn't offer a sustainable solution. Ultimately, learning to befriend the present moment can be a powerful tool for personal growth and well-being. How many people work on making the present moment their friend? On the other hand, how many people resist the present moment? If so, does it work?

Speaking of thanks for all, I was hoping we could acknowledge everyone who comments below. I know it seems like a small gesture, but many people here have never opened up to anyone before and being open and honest with strangers can be quite scary. So, if we could show our gratitude by giving their comment a simple reply or heart, I’m sure they would really appreciate your team support. What do you say?
