Above is a piece of art I produced through Indiginous TV and getting art lessons from a educational show. As I learned of their Indiginous drawing lines, I put together this image in oil pastel. The original was lost to a Bailiff's container, before I became homeless in the streets of Montreal, thankfully recovered in the digital era.

Doc GM's Political Messenger Vol.XXI Edition VIII
Doc GM
Here the end of August and rolling into September on Labour Day weekend, still alone too much around my Schizo/Genius type approach to my art and engineering, which has a hard time getting off the ground, to bring monetary rewards in the wallet. As much as I envisioned in art and engineering, I am still determined to succeed late in life, thanks to my survival skills as a mental health consumer with a solid education. With having electromagnetics being part of my education, I envisioned a proto-type from recycled parts. I took it to Politicians for help, having an education as a mental health consumer helped me through, to have the upper edge in life, while surviving in the mental health system.
The regional mental health clinic that I deal with, sees me in a bit of a different light, for what I went through standing up for the National Building Code, and becoming an angry man over it. Now that I have backing, that I know what I am doing with a tool in my hand, and good at helping to solve engineering problems, I command a lot of respect. I figured out how sewer mains in my neighbourhood need tending too, as I was put to work to resolve a flooding issue, by a neighbourhood management of property team.
What to write? I have succeeded with my education somewhat, the cheque is to come! An Engineer that I have a lot of respect for, stated to me I am getting paid consulting with him. He is back working full time from part time, through my inspirational emails for endeavors with him like way back. He knows me, long before all my dark years of my mental health problems. Things I wrote on the Internet or felt during the dark years of my mental health treatment, bitter and angry with what my treatment plan did to me. Mental Health Workers were in denial of my media attention, and street gossip around me, told me I was hallucinating when I was not. I am still damaged goods from what the mental health system did to me with their denial of truths and reality.
I am back painting my canvas for the art show at the Mental Health Clinic that I deal with, the original version was done studying a drawing, when in the Montreal psychiaric prison getting an evaluation for the Courts, when abused by the Canadian system. The Canadian Courts hold the colour of my mind against me through schizophrenia, as pre-judgement with and through our own stereo typical biggotry like any where else in the World. Accountability of what has gone on during my growth over the years must come about, to earn a decent living again without the psychiatric stigma. Canada always had to walk a thorny path as a member of NATO, while being open to our humanitary services to the World, no one country is perfect. It was once stated at United Nations that fellow members all said, yes indeed all Countries have illegal activities, which is becoming more and more obsolete with a Planet in crisis with Gobal warming. Everybody has to do their part to save a fair and just society, which is earned through hard labour of elected officials guiding us, which sometimes lead to war policing each other as countries. Our march with weaponary was always done, through being followers of what ever political regime that tries to work within the UN Security Council, or outside of its mandate. It does not make war right, where do we find a balance to deal with outlandish idealogies from the far right to far left, while serving up our humanitarian efforts for the less privilaged or those in crisis from destruction through war, over bearing politics, or natural destructive forces of the Planet. Due to what ever idealogies individuals are caught up in, who survives with who? We do not paint a pretty picture of ourselves as a society, trying to be a workable civilization in union, to save ourselves from ourselves.
I am trying to save myself with the odds of the mental health system against me, now with the evidense of osteoporosis in my hands from long term use of anti-psychotics, I got a phone call back from one of the over worked members of the mental health clinic. Finally!! Attention long over due around the state of my hands with osteoporosis. I knew what my Mother's hands were like with age and diagnosis, but she was a lot older for age with the condition, than I am presently in. I need a special treatment plan so I can continue growing somehow with this new aging process of schizophrenia upon me, to deal with my changing hands of osteoporosis and associated pain. With a visit to my Dentist, I got some teeth repaired during the morning on the last Monday of September, which is today. Still asking myself? How I fit into a bigger picture with this issue at hand, osteoporosis. I promised to just bang back the pills for the Court order, until seen for my hands next week. I admit to the mental health team that I have smoked pot along the way as a Canadian, it often helped with digestion, nerves, pain, and could be part of what ever bad side effects such as in prescribed medications and mixing them. It could have been affecting me in my fingers, while working a tool over the years and smoking and drinking after work, should not be dismissed as a cause. A lot of the time that was all I had, alone with my schizophrenia. I smoked a fair bit of pot in my life time, while popping pills, and taking injections, handicapping me or not. I did apply intelligence for survival over the years with going to school, it is just what comes out now with being later in life, as a person with schizophrenia caught up in the Courts, as a low income tax absorber for money.
The system allows me to just survive, with bad habits yes, as to my pot consumption. I quit cigarettes for the most part, stay off them most of the time, and do not take alcohol any more. With recent need to steady my nerves, I have reached for cigarettes, but hold back from smoking the majority of time. I am fighting the system in the Courts, it does rattle one's cage, makes you nervous to be precise. Got to head to the Pharmacy now, to take my pills infront of him/her, until later.... home again and feeling lost to the system. Years back I cried out on the Internet over not being able to function and write for extra paramidal side effects, I got through that and back functioning to produce. Now my past activities may be my end all for my joints, cold and damp and they are hurting coming home from the Pharmacy....I will leave it at that for now.
I asked my Pharmacist for an anti pot smoking aid at one point, like the nicorette cigarette tube to suck on, with a interchangable charge of nicotine, which I used with the patch getting off tobacco. It is like I need a green one for pot to help me out, and save my lungs. It still feels like I still have to beg for help, in a more demanding over worked system in mental health. The over salivitation seems to be getting worse, it has been a sore point with me for a long time. My pillow still soaks at night dripping on it, they say medication for side effect, but it do not taste too good putting under one's tonque. Just another thing to deal with, wondering alone, trying to deal with medication levels and side effects for the Courts.
Going through the Courts, I onced said to a Judge, you want to pass your water on your bench through my filters. Well I am still caught up in processing my water some for the rust in the old pipes of the building. It could be saving me once again, even although I do not eat the best with my budget to economy. How I must try to process water, lack of financing to do it right, but struggling to do it, while not being able to afford bottled water at the end of the month. I can drink a lot of coffee during the day, just adding to my nervous situation as a coffee consumer, and worried what my life has become sipping coffee. Gossip spreads fast going to the Pharmacy every night, being seen popping the pills, the street gossip and all is getting a bit much. The arguements that I started, for one being told I proved that I am or was fit to breed, before I put forth the osteoporosis state of my hands to the system. I do not know what to make of it, why was I deemed unfit to breed in the first place, due to the schizophrenia issue? Phobias and schizophrenia run side by side, some people with schizophrenia make the news in another way that is not so pleasent. I got caught up in the system the wrong way with the Courts myself, while fighting for justice from my past during mental health years, defending the National Building Code, then with the media commenting on the situation with who I am after the fact, or became after the years. Some believe in my water paper and engineering for me to succeed, thanks for that in my life, I am not totally alone.
