About the Book

Travis explains how Schizophrenia stole his life and ripped out his heart in this enlightening book about life with Schizophrenia. Everything Travis knew about himself as a teenager was quickly stolen from him in one psychotic episode. The voices and hallucinations, as well as the delusions have all teamed up to ruin Travis' life and steal who he was. Travis embraces the challenge life gives him. In this book you will learn how the voices try and control Travis. You will learn how Travis uses coping strategies to overcome and ignore the voices and hallucinations. Travis sometimes suffers from very delusional thinking and has to work hard to tell what is real from what is not real in his brain. Imagine having a movie playing in your head but no one else could see the movie and when you told people what the movie was about they could not relate to it because they did not see the same movie that you saw. That is what Schizophrenia is like for Travis. Travis shares how he has imaginary friends, imaginary doctors, and a whole knew personality because of Schizophrenia. Travis remembers the kid and teenager that had everything going in life. It is hard to accept some of the new challenges and limitations that he has because he grew up being able to do just fine with some of the same issues. Schizophrenia makes it hard to go to school, makes it hard to keep a job, and it just plane ruins your life. Travis used to blame autism for all of his troubles because he did not know he had schizophrenia. Now Travis embraces and loves autism because he knows that autism is not causing his hallucinations and delusions. Read this book to learn more about living with Schizophrenia. Here is an excerpt from the book. "That episode led to me being hospitalized in the mental health hospital for a week. After a lot of talking with real doctors there it was determined that I had schizophrenia. That hospitalization would help me so much because the medicines I was taking were only for autism. I was not on any medication for voices or hallucinations that would have helped me figure out how to get rid of the voices or make them go away. When I was hospitalized they had me start Zyprexa and that is for the voices and hallucinations."
About the Author: I'm Travis. I'm a 30 year old author of books about autism. I like football, basketball, tennis, hiking, music, rock, writing, reading, and talking. I have overcome the greatest challenge in my life. I no longer cope with autism I live happily with it. I have some really amazing friends and a truly inspirational and awesome best friend! Life had always been a struggle for me until I started taking responsibility for my own life and situation. I spent a long time wanting and expecting others to fix or improve my life and make it what I wanted it to be. Truth be known, I was the only one who could and can do that. Now I write books about autism and how I am taking responsibility for my own life. What a difference I've seen in life. Life is what we choose to make of it. I don't want to just be known as a guy with Autism. I want to be known as a guy who's doing something awesome with Autism! Travis is dually diagnosed with Autism and Schizophrenia.
