I wanna thank everyone for taking the time to reply to me. I was very very sick last night but praise God I'm feeling alot better. I didn't quite get the answers I was looking for in this thread but that's ok, I appreciate everything ya'll had to say, good or bad. I now understand that there probably is something clinically wrong with me and I'll probably spend the rest of my life dealing with it in my own way. I don't want to go on any psychiatric medication or anything because by and large my life is good with it. I'm gonna read up about the divine blessings of schizophrenia like and try to emulate people like St. Joan of Arc (one of my heroes). I'm not normal and I'm losing my ability to fit into normal society but that's ok, God is providing people in my life who love and cherish me just the way I am, people who make me feel normal. In times like these, what else can I do but trust God, so trust God I will. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and have a great day. :)

First anon to say Schizophrenia itt; anon, if you really want to take that path, Jung's The Red Book is likely a good piece to study. Still, while I don't want you on pills, I also know that you're very unstable and still hope you can find peace in some way.

I did alot of research on schizophrenia and it doesn't fit my bill at all. The voice in my head is more indicative of non-clinical trauma as it is a positive influence and has directed me towards my objective betterment. An example of her positive influence is encouraging me not to judge myself too harshly, express more compassion to the needy, and abstaining from sexual immorality. I would agree that I need therapy; however, I function well in normal social situations and nothing of the symptoms that could diagnose me as schizophrenic interfere with my daily functions. I have hobbies, interests, and tangible goals in the world that I actively work towards every day which isn't something most clinically diagnosed people can say, God bless them. I do like Carl Jung and will look into his work if my libraries have it, and I'll continue reading the Bible as I find myself relating more and more with the Apostle Paul. I think you mean well and I do appreciate you looking out for me. I'm definitely an eccentric, odd, and maybe a little 'crazy' but I am perfectly capable of living a normal life and I'm blessed to say that. If you'd like to continue discussing things we can but this has been an invaluable learning experience for me in asserting myself as a person even against people whose opinions I greatly value, ya'll's. Merry Christmas my friend. :)
