[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 690340, member: 1550"] I am on SSDI and can make $1000 a month (still not rich but it helps) and nobody checks up to see if I see a doctor, although I try very hard to keep this in check, never skip my medications, go to therapy and group therapy. But I never have been asked about it. I have a rather severe mood disorder, learning issues and every anxiety disorder under the sun. If somebody has a mood disorder, like me, we are not psychotic and are able to be rational and get help. If we dont get help, the fault is our own. We know we are ill. P Schizophrenia robs you of the ability to get help as much of the time you are psycotic...hallucinating and not really in our world. See "A Beautiful Mind" a movie about the brilliant John Nash who had schizophrenia and had no idea that he was sick. It is the Stage IV Cancer of brain disorders. The patient is too sick to even know reality from the voices and false images from his mind. It is like being on psychedelic drugs without drug. And we have no real help for them unless they get arrested. It is a real intense issue to me because it is so wrong. [/QUOTE]
