Testimony from Elementary School

#1
Hey, something that happened to me as a child- this was in elementary school. I did not play with the other children at recess, I would just go to some remote area of the playground and sit there until it was over. One day I was just sitting there by myself and a disembodied voice spoke to me, it said "Don't be afraid." "You have a mental illness." I asked the voice in my heart, saying "Who are you?". The voice said "God." I did not realize it at the time but I had the beginning effects of schizophrenia, I had the prodrome, that explained the way I was. I was very bad socially through middle school and high school, I had only 1 or 2 friends, everyone else in the school hated me. Finally in the first week of my freshman year in college I started hearing voices, I came down with full-blown schizophrenia when I was there, I went completely off the deep-end and landed in the psych ward at the local hospital and eventually flunked out of college after 2 semesters. I was an atheist and a hardcore drug user but I gave my life to Christ in 2003, I was then delivered from the voices and was restored to my right mind, I still have some symptoms but I believe my complete healing is coming!

Almost a third of people with Schizophrenia experience partial or complete remission at some point. If your belief sustains you then you should hold onto it, but I think you have have had a suspension of your symptoms with or without it.

Yes, I have heard about this- people do spontaneously remit from schizophrenia, it does happen, doctors know about this! Some people just wake up one morning and everything is gone! God has mercy on people with this disease, I am convinced it is God that is healing people!
