Well this is a bit late, but better late than never…
So, as planned, this month went rather well! Though I’ve had to adapt for the new dairy free diet, as mentioned in a previous post, but that has actually given me a new boost to really try with it. Continue reading “January Weight Update..”
When I first saw the psychiatrists about my psychotic break, we were told that we should expect a three year recovery. Since then I’ve now been diagnosed with Schizophrenia, and sixteen months on I’m working way ahead of that three year schedule. Yet somehow, this isn’t fast enough…

It has been a bit harder this week, my mum baked a banana and chocolate cake which smelled delicious- but of course I couldn’t have any. Plus I did forget one time, getting a Galaxy chocolate bar from the supermarket! Sadly didn’t realise till afterwards, so did have a stomach ache after; but here is some of the tricks and gorgeous foods I’ve had.
I have had the great pleasure of being nominated for the Liebster Award by the lovely OneDizzyBee. Although I am sorry that I’ve been a little, and by that I mean a lot, late to doing this post; but have had a lot going on so couldn’t be avoided.

For as long as I can remember I’ve really want to take my education through to degree level. After having to leave college because of mental health, I have to admit I began to doubt whether I would be able to do this. However as previously mentioned on another post, I found I really missed studying so started my OU degree. Continue reading “Start of my OU Journey”
As many of you are most probably aware, I have been having issues with my stomach- despite being treated for gastritis; it was suggested to me that it could all be being caused by a milk allergy. Therefore I have made the decision to do 4 weeks dairy free to see if my symptoms improve… Continue reading “4 weeks Dairy Free- Week 1”
I ended up in hospital a few weeks back with expected appendicitis, spending several days in a surgical ward. It was all fun and games trying to organise my admission, with them thinking I could be just dumped on a ward, with a bundle of people I don’t know- dealing with the random noises, beeping and coming and going of strangers. If only it was that easy… Continue reading “Time for a Rant.. Schizo in Hospital”
So this is a very short post, but is about a concept that I have been thinking about a lot lately. In general I find that people only ever have a basic understanding of Schizophrenia, if any at all; I’m often asked questions about my experience and symptoms, which I’m more than happy to answer.
Therefore I have a question to all my lovely followers; would you be interested in a monthly or quarterly Q&A? This would consist of followers, visitors, pretty much anyone, asking me questions and then me doing a post with all the answers. The questions could be sent through comments on the blog, Twitter, or even Instagram.
If there is any interest please let me know, as well as giving me your first questions..
I’ve spent a lot of time trying to think of different ways of breaking the stigma of schizophrenia through this blog, and I realised that I was depending upon you taking my word. This lead me to ask my lovely follower, and I like to think, friend @OneDizzyBee who has experience of knowing a Schizophrenic to write a post for me. She can be found at http://onedizzybee.com/ so go and check her out!!
So with that I pass it over…. Continue reading “Schizophrenia’s Friend- Guest Post”
This is one of my first nomination posts; though it will be the first of many in the next few weeks. I received my nomination from such a lovely lady, Aimee from aimeeraindropwrites – I highly recommend giving her site a looksie if you haven’t already!
