What's It Like for You?
Sunday October 28, 2007
The experience of schizophrenia cuts a person off from the shared, assumed background of experiences that allow most people to communicate. Even standing right next to a loved one, a person with active psychosis experiences and perceives things their loved ones don't and can't. The Internal Experience of Schizophrenia describes how an individual with schizophrenia often experiences the most common psychotic symptoms. I hope some of you with schizophrenia will be able to use this to help others understand your experiences a little better.
