Twenty one years ago I suffered what others called a breakdown. Naturally I ended up in a pyschiatric hospital. I have had five of these "episodes". In one I was locked up "for my own protection" for five weeks. In the last I chose to go to the pyschiatric hospital in a suit with a box of cigars. This helped the "patients" far more than the lobotomising drugs, the electric shocks, the basket making or the patronising talking down of the pyschiatrists!. I am patient with the twenty one years it has taken me to come of the shit they prescribed to me. I am patient with the ridiculous labels they tried to attach to me like schitzophrenic, schitzo effective disorder, paranoid schitzophrenic, obsessive, mood disorders, manic depressive, bi polar, manic and so on and so on. I am patient with the ridiculous term disease to describe something I experienced that they cannot explain. I am patient with their delusions which help them to cope with the fact that my brain is trying to fire up and theirs is not which is why I became able to hear and see into other dimensions and realities, why I became telepathic and knew what they were thinking, why I became highly clairvoyant and clairaudient, why I experienced other entities and presences and spontaneous knowledge came into my head which was very scary and freaked me and other people out which brought me to them and why I experienced an explosion of creativity and free thinking and changes to my living patterns. I am patient with the fact that the fear in others and the desire to shut me down coupled later with the suppressing effect of the drugs made me depressed as it would because my brain was trying to evolve and they were trying to prevent it from doing that. I have always believed that what I experienced was real and not an illness which is why in the last twenty one years I have learned to control it, understand it and have read the manual so now I am free in every sense with all of the amazing benefit and non of the handicaps when you are trying to understand what is happening to you!! I want to free everyone!!
