Thank you I am glad you are doing well too Christina.  I think for me it was the voices that did it, but now I am in some ways glad I hear voices.  That is really a strange thing, but it is true.  The voices are not bad and are funny and tell me to go to school and everything else and learn.   I know now that is me now and not people following me and stalking me.  At one time I thought it was people.  Actually my brain actually made people names up and I even saw people that weren't really there and I would actually hallucinate people talking about me.  I hallucinated my family talking about me too.  I thought they were trying to kill me.  Really they weren't.  My brain was making stuff up.  Funny though when I confronted my family about the stuff.  They knew I was nuts.  My brain stopped hallucinating things about them.   I really wonder if my brain knows what is real and what isn't, because I think when I hallicinate it knows that stuff isn't real and people are not talking about me and I haven't hallucinated in quite a while.  Thanks to my brain.   It showed me once when I was taking my mediation by the way that I can still hallucinate people talking about me even though I am taking the medication.  I seen two girls talking the one day and John (one of my voices) said something like you still don't think we could do that because you are on the medicine?  And I didn't think my brain could, but it did just to show me that it still could.    That I think was the last time I hallucinated anyone talking about me.  My brain once did a remember that and one time had a person talk about me and say stuff that made me scared that I actually knew and then quickly stopped it once I remembered it from months ago when I still thought my schizophrenia was actually real people and that people were after me.   I hope someone reads this and understands just because you hear voices does not mean anything and they can actually make you a better person depending on what those voices say.  Mine tell me I should learn and go to school which I will probably end up doing.
