In the present book, the path of suffering of a person affected by a schizophrenia over a time period of almost three decades is described. By means of stirring and detailed reports, the profound symptoms and phenomena of the disorder of a psychosis from the schizophrenic group are authentically brought closer to the reader. Thereby, not only a detailed account of the acute phase and its prehistory is given, but also therapeutic efforts made over a time period of almost 25 years after the onset of this sickness are illuminated. After manifold experiences made over many years and accompanying healing work, the author finally succeeded in decoding possible causes and spiritual operating principles of this disorder in the framework of a holistic approach on the basis of intensive introspection and inspired insights and to walk eventually the path of healing. This book is aimed at each one who is interested to get a first-hand account of the diverse symptoms and phenomena of this mysterious disorder combined with an innovative interpretation, which is completely unique owed to the outstanding distinct power of observation and logical thinking of the author.
