Hello everyone
First of all, I would like to apologize for not posting updates for some 14 days or so. Things have been very busy, and my life has turned around in so many ways i feel slightly dizzy.
About my friend: her state started to get drastically better since she was admitted to hospital, her speech improved and a few days back she finally regained her consciousness enough to admit that what she is experiencing is not real. I consider that a major step towards her return to normal.
She returned from the hospital this monday, and since that, her family has been taking care of her. I found a new room to live meanwhile and visit her as much as I can. I remain the person she trusts the most, and try to speak with her about her emotions. I seeked many therapeuts and doctors who gave me a lot of information on how to help her while not hurting myself, so i am well equipped for helping her. She say she feels better after speaking to me, which makes me happy. So far she has always made a great improvement in handling her psychic state after meeting me.
She even started working again, thanks to her father who gave her a job which she can do over the computer from home in a stress-free environment.
I made it my goal to become a person she can rely on, so I am working on my independence and building a network of good friends, as opposed to what i was used to untill now. I was a closed loner who only had one friend - her. I am meeting many new people now and gaining experience in human contact, something that my abusive parents denied me until my twenties.
Her medication is helping her very much, and although I realize she still has a long way to go, thigs are hopefully heading in the positive direction. She has found a will to overcome the limitations of her illness and learn new things about herself. I am thankful to God for that.
I cannot express how much you all have helped me during the challenging first phases when I was so lonely and helpless. Thank you, and God bless all your days.
