The Movie 'It' and Schizoaffective Disorder
I curled up on the couch, with a blanket and a dog, ready for one of my friend’s favorite movies. He loved the movie It, though I had never seen it. He rented the recent remake, certain that I would love it. About twenty minutes into It, I screamed, turned on all the lights in the house, glared at him, and asked, “What the fuck, dude?!” I wasn’t ready for the schizophrenic trip down memory lane that this screwed up movie was taking me on.

The Pedestrian
She began her trip back home. Hot drink in hand, fogging the air around her as she walked. Clouds forming in front of her in the night sky. Her watch read 3:45am but when she was walking, boots crunching on the fall leaves that had taken their last breath tumbling to the concrete below, she felt as though time didn’t exist and her seconds, minutes, hours were endless.

EVANN Beep! Beep! Beep! Evann woke with a start, his heart pounding in his chest. He could feel the blood thundering through his head. His pulse sounded as loud as his alarm, and he felt nauseous. Reaching over, he slammed a hand down towards his alarm. Instead, it came down on his glasses with a crack. He swore under his breath and fumbled around trying to get at the right button on the alarm clock.
