A Brief Introduction
My name is Roses Gacy. I am a 23-year-old, who happens to have schizophrenia, amongst other things. I will be writing on this blog about what it’s like to live in such a situation and how things are experienced from a “sufferers” point of view, if you want to call it that.
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that affects a person's thinking, feeling, and behaviour, causing them to have difficulty distinguishing between what is real and what is not. They often hear voices, experience thoughts and feelings they would rather not have and frequently struggle with hallucinations.
I also make music, and visual art and I’m overall pretty creative when it comes to transforming feelings and experiences into visuals or audio. I will take you with me on my journey through life. This will include talking about my experiences that are unique, such as psychotic episodes.
This might also include experiences that are common, for example, what I’ve done that week or what I’ve been doing in therapy and such.
As someone who experiences these things on a regular basis, I think it will be interesting for you, the reader, to understand what it might be like from a different perspective.
I hope this will be an interesting path, and I can’t wait to see what the future holds.
