Living With Schizophrenia? Options

Hello, I'm a diagnosed schizophrenic and was wondering if anybody else is, or has experience dealing with a schizophrenic in their lifetime. I started this topic because since I was 16 I've been trapped in my own reality. I'm looking for methods or techniques for dealing with different symptoms like; fear that somebody is reading your mind, talking to the radio or television, hearing voices, and overall paranoia. I'm now 20 years old and have accomplished nothing in my life because I've let my illness get the best of me. The only achievement I've made since my first psychotic episode is graduating from high school. I'm really just looking for ways, other than taking medication, too stop my thoughts or subconscious mind from what seems to me as being "broadcast" to people and technology around me. My main problem is the fear that my mind is being read. Hopefully some of you have some advice for me; other than wearing a tinfoil hat, jk. I'm currently taking Zyprexa and Geodon if you were wondering what my meds were. Thanks in advance.

I only took the top link off a google search as it seemed relevant. I'd suggest you look further into the subject yourself.

Ultimately I think in order to have a successful soul recovery you'd need to have at least the assistance of a real shaman. Ideally the shaman would do the soul recovery him/her self. Soul recovery essentially requires one to venture into the spirit world and attempt to coerce the soul back to the sick person where the shaman would then "mend" the soul back in place where it will merge and heal with the person. After such a ritual the person will then spend a period of time away like on a vacation or secluded in a peaceful environment to fully recover and make sure their soul fragment does not reject the host. This would also require the presance of someone at least able to guide an individual through the process.

I would very suggest you do not attempt to do a soul recovery ritual yourself. If the fragment rejects you it might be lost for good or may never be willing to return. Again I stress the importance of avoiding ritual magick all together and stick to conventional medicine. Then sometimes conventional medicine isn't enough. And if that has failed then I wish the best of luck.

Another suggestion I'd is looking into eastern philosophy and medicine, particularly meditation. So browse the eastern traditions section of this site or search web. If you have a lybrary near by, unless its in the deep back woods of Alabama, will likely have books or access to books on Eastern philosophy. I think eastern philosophy has a more grounded approach towards the human mind, imho.
