  This is a blog about another proactive coping skill that has helped me immeasurably over the years.  It deals with refusing to let yourself become self-stigmatized.   How many people with schizophrenia have heard their psychiatrist, therapist or personal advocate [whether a family member or a treatment professional] say "You've... Read moreChevron

Coping Skills - #12 - Recreate Yourself

   When I first developed schizophrenia, I lost track of who I was.  Confused, I no longer knew how to present myself to others, let alone what to expect from them.  Because of all this, I experienced a devastating loss of self esteem which was greatly complicated by the fact that just about everyone I knew began to treat me... Read moreChevron
