"What is she looking at?" said Josh in my head. I tell myself its nothing but Josh and Emma are telling me otherwise. I start getting frantic and breathing heavier, and I can tell that the gorgeous girl on the subway can tell. "She looked away! Why must you always screw things up? You could have had a chance if we you just got the guts to stop freaking out and go talk to her," Cole screamed in my head. By the time this argument in my head was even halfway finished, the pretty girl had gone.
Hello, my name is Tyler Haberly, I am seventeen years of age and I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. My parents both died from the illness, they both drove themselves into a bridge because they thought they were being followed. Who knows what the voices in their heads were saying.
"Look! There she is!" I thought to myself, or at least I tried. Josh and Emma yelled that I would scare her off, but Brooke encouraged me to talk to her. Just as I started to get up enough courage to go up to her, Cole popped into my head, "Shes going to hate you. You're sick. You're disgusting. Don't talk to her, you'll just screw it all up."
Every day I have this constant battle in my head and although my schizophrenia is still filed as a mild case, it affects me a lot. I slowly feel the illness getting worse with every sun rise and set, and it's slowly affecting my relationships with the few people that I have left.
