The topic is to evaluate a significant experience or an event that has affected you and what impact it has left upon you.
Schizophrenia: n. Any of a group of psychotic disorders usually characterized by withdrawal from reality, illogical patterns of thinking, delusions, and hallucinations, and accompanied in varying degrees by other emotional, behavioral, or intellectual disturbances.
From the moment any guest enters our seemingly normal house in the suburbs, you palpate this great weight on you. The house is usually dark, there’s dirty dishes piled in the unlit kitchen, the cat is hiding. Have you ever gotten that feeling as a child, that there was something going on the adults weren’t telling you about, as if you could sense that there was something wrong but couldn’t put it to words? In our house, that’s not an emotion to be taken lightly.
Is it too elementary to start with a definition?
Constructive criticism! Please mention how it sounds to you, the tone, if I need a more elaborate vocabulary, anything! I'm afraid it'll sound horrible.. :c Also, I'm having trouble moving on to the next topic, I'm trying to lead up to my mom's schizophrenia, then, to how it has changed me as a person.
