Day of Reflection

I have the day off from school today because all the juniors went in on a Saturday to take the SAT (Except for me because I was on new medication that made me tired) and I don't really have anything to do because my best friend is hanging out with one of her other friends. I did go out to eat with my cousin and a friend but that only took up like 2 hours of my day and now I'm left with the rest of the day to just sit here. And as I've been sitting here I've been reflecting on my experiences with Psychosis NOS. I am currently 17 and was diagnosed on March 17th (St.Patrick's day) of this year, but I have suffered from this illness since I was around the age of 8 years old. I've been looking on the internet and YouTube, just hoping that maybe I'll find some sort of answers on here... but as you can guess I haven't found much. I have come to realize that the answers I'm looking for are going to have to come from within myself and the only way I'm going to find those answers is if I just live my life. I am hoping this blog will reach people: People with children with a mental illness, People with friends who have a mental illness, or anyone who is willing to listen and hopefully learn from my experiences.
