A 20th-century artist, Louis Wain, who was fascinated by cats, painted these pictures over a period of time in which he developed schizophrenia. The pictures mark progressive stages in the illness and exemplify what it does to the victim’s perception.

I can relaid to that… I myself have depression and schizophrenia. And in the begin-stage of my disease. I was functionally fine. But a few years later 2 I had to quit my Collage study because i can not concentrate.
Then I began to work for a advise agency. I became a technician electrics energy and made success. But in my mind I was falling apart. My concentration began to get worse. And I heard negative voices. At the time I also used drugs to beat the concentration (xtc, coke, LSD) and I got a psychoses. I thought that aliens had taken over the earth. I had seen the Matrix movie. I wanted ti kill myself and almost did. I recall that my thoughts about everything was illogicaland messed up. And that became worse after more years. It was time for psychiatry specialists and pills. They say I had depression and schizophrenia…
The world view a got absolute amazed me. Avery-thing became clear to me. All the time in my psychoses I did not think strait now I can see clear. I was glad. But I made a mistake after a few years I was feeling so good I quit medication. I got a new Psychoses worse after the the first and was forced to stay at the mental hospital. I had again a heavy depression. It was clear to my that I had schizophrenia…
Now I am in good health and use medicine. The side effect that i am always tired, I ignore this by doing things so that I don’t have to think. Self-improvement thoughts daily…
