perhaps the normaloes wonder what it's like to be schizophrenic? someone
should construct an epic novel complete with companion music and art.
something to blow their normaloe minds. the problem with most books on
schizophrenia is that they aren't written by schizophrenics.

schizophrenia has no linear progression, thus conventional novels and
biographies can't possibly relate the experience.

Nor is schizophrenia a neat package.
I personally prefer to use the 3 syndrome approach, that is any
schizophrenic may have any one, two or all of the three main syndromes.
Psychomotor poverty syndrome.
Disorganization syndrome.
Reality distortion syndrome.

My novel is about my experiences with Schizo-Affective Disorder and focuses
allot on my hallucinations, paranoia, delusions, depression and the like.

It's going to be a little bit like "The Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath in the
sense that I'm writing about myself but it seems like I'm writing about
another person.

It's called an Auto-Biographical Novel.
