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.

Question, is Left Hand Path black magic or "satanism?" I prefer white magic, and don't use black magic because its against my morals. Unless there is LHP thats gray magic I really wouldn't be interested.

LHP doesn't HAVE to involve magick of any sort. Many just adopt it as a philosophy for life. Then ofcourse there are those LHP mages/sorcerors that actually do practice magick.
If i may something i will say this: there are no rules in the LHP or any religion really. You interpret it as you will. That means that a LHPathist can practice white magick as oppoosed to black magick (which is to be expected). Don't let anyone tell you what to do

Ha ha ha, you just basically said that LHP is meaningless, as are all titles.

Doesn't LHP mean that, in the end, you look out for number 1 first, then mabey others? as opposed to RHP which focuses on selflessness and the betterment of others first, and yourself second?

To Slayden,

I think that is a fruitful way of viewing both paths.
LHP is the path of the self
RHP is the path of humanity/Gods
