Deily lived with her parents, she was the only daughter in her house. She lived in a small apartment, the bedroom's Deily was dark. There was a small window when she saw the general yard and courts. There is a desk with a laptop, some books, pens, and a special photograph. Also, there is a big closet with a big mirror. On the wall, there are some pictures that she had drawn and photographs that she had taken in her free time.

Immediately, she took her cell phone, pen, and black notebook with a feather on the cover page and a password to open it. All these things, she kept in her small purple bag with black stripes. Before leaving her house, she saw out the window that nobody was outside because she lived in an apartment in a building. There were ten buildings with sixteen apartments in each one. Also, in this residential area, there was a small park where children played basketball or football, it was big. Deily saw that there was nobody outside, so she put on a hat, and ran as fast as she could to the huge brown front door. On-street, she started to walk straight ahead. At the end of the street, there are many pine trees. There was a long stone path.

When Deily started to walk here, she felt free. Deily thought “I love this forest, there are many flowers of different colors. But there is a specific place here where there are orchids and I love it”.

While she was walking, she saw the blue sky, opened her arms and closed her eyes, and breathed pure air. Mountains, forests, and nature are one of favorite things that Deily enjoyed because that place was an inspiration to write her poems.  

When she was on top of the mountain, she saw all the forest and some houses until her house. She sat on the rock while opening her notebook. She was thinking “Here, I am at peace nobody saw me, talked to me that is fine, awesome for me because when I am at my university I feel so strange, I feel like a weirdo” When Daily was in her neighborhood she said “I do not stand to be near those persons, especially my university partners when talking her travels who cares about that. Why would I spend time talking with her? The only person that I liked to talk to, make a bonfire was my best friend, but she is not here, that is so sad, really I miss her”

When the sun went down, it was the perfect time to take a photograph, and Daily admired this perfect time so awesome because there was a brilliant mix of colors between orange and red. Deily “the sun is always brilliant nothing can overshadow you, I would like to be same that wonderful sun”

Daily, after her classes, it was always her daily routine, she went to the forest. It was time she wrote poems or a little story about another world where her life was perfect and magic. 

When Deily woke up in the morning, she saw the roof, and she thought “Oh no another day that I have to go to my university, I am tired to go there” She got up with her eyes tired, her hair all tousled, and her long grey pajama. She went to the bathroom to wash her face. Then, she wore her black pants, grey sweatshirt, and black hiking boots. She went to the dining room, and she said: “mmmm it smells like delicious freshly ground coffee. I like when my mother makes coffee. It lifts my mood”.

The university was close to Deily’s house, so she walked to her university. That day was undeniably dark and cold. When she left her house, it started to rain. While she was walking, the soil was wet. She felt the coldness of every drop that fell on her, the same coldness that she felt when she was with her classmates, the same coldness that she felt in her heart. Only coffee that her mother prepared alleviated that coldness. Her nightmare would start in three blocks because she was approaching university. Immediately, she changed her mood from sadness to strong, because when she was at her university, she did not look as other people see her as a vulnerable person.

In high school, she did not have any friends. She liked to be alone. When she was in university, she found a place that anybody did not know. That place was a garden that had some wooden chairs and tables and smelled of red fruits that transmitted peace. It was another favorite place that Deily enjoyed. While she was admiring the sky and the clouds were clearing from the morning rain. She started to write a new poem 

“Each step, each path is a labyrinth without exit, 

a labyrinth that unique exit is to die in a middle of a path, 

a path that not even hope can save you from the fact that she is always in your mind,

and that she wants to take you to sleep in eternity” 

at the end of this poem, she thought” at the end of this poem Deily thought “I would like to my friend read this, but I know that she would start with some questions that I would not like to answer”

It is one of the poems that Deily wrote when she was alone. Nobody had read these poems because Deily's notebook had a password, and she never leaves her notebook.

When she was in the garden, she watched the hour, and it was 15:15. Instantly, she remembered that she had classes. Deily thought “Oh my God it is too late, I had to go to my literature class, oh no the teacher will kill me, and I had to present my homework”. She ran to her class as quickly as she could, which was far from the place she was.  

When she arrived at her class, the teacher did not say anything to Deily. She sat in the back on the last bench next to the big window that overlooked the court and the forest beyond. When she heard “What were you doing? Deily only just turned her head and saw her partner with a cold, lost look, and she went back to look through the window. Her partner thought “I was just asking; this is what I get for being empathetic to a weirdo like you. Deily opened her notebook as if she did not listen to anything. Suddenly outside she saw a girl with blue jeans and a pink sweatshirt.

She was her best friend, whom Deily had not seen for a long time. Immediately, she ran out, it did not matter even if she was in class. When she saw her best friend, she felt very emotional as the sunshine every morning when it shines, she felt shining on her face. Deily said “Oh my God that is impossible, really, I missed you. Ok anyway, let's go to our favorite place” while they were walking on the trail, Deily told that 3 years had been extremely stressful because she used to visit her doctor. But in the last 1-year, she stopped going to the doctor, but her mother did not know it. So, her friend said “That was the time you stopped talking because your mother said that I was bad for you and your classmates at university. They did all possible that you leave me, and I did not understand why. I am your support at any moment, I am always with you, I listen to you, and read your awesome poems that nobody has read because I am your confidant. Deily “I know that, but I did not understand that, nowadays, my classmates always see me as a weirdo, you are a unique friend. When she listened in the middle of the forest among dry branches to a strange sound, she turned her head, and she saw someone. Deily said, “Who is there?” 

She heard someone saying “what are you doing here,” Deily said “that matters to you, I am with a friend that I have not seen in a long time, but the question is how do you know this place? Nobody knows about this place, only me, Merry. At that moment Merry was very surprised and confused because behind Deily there was nobody. Merry said “Yes, that is true, but I followed you because you ran out of the classroom, and I thought that your alleged friend was no longer going to return what happen Deily? Deily said “leave me, I am fine with my best friend who is back” at that moment Merry did not say anything and she turned and left the place, but while she was walking, she thought “I do not understand what is happening, Deily was visiting the doctor, but lately, she was a little strange, she did not talk with anybody and her friend, what friend?

In the evening, in the forest, all was dark and Deily and her friend were lying on the ground looking at the sky.

The sky was clear and full of stars, crickets could be heard, and there were some fireflies. While they admired that glamorous landscape, Deily’s friend said “why don't we disappear and move away from each other where no one can separate us here no one wants me by your side. I am good for you, and they don't understand it.” Deily only was thinking about what her friend said. Deily said “this day was wonderful because you are here, but I am going to my house my mother is waiting for me for dinner together, bye, see you soon”

While at her house her mother was impatient because it was too late. Mother thought “It is too late what happened with Deily when her friend said that she was in the forest with someone. oh no!! I do not know that she is bad again, no no!! She is visiting the doctor or not.” Immediately, her mother called the doctor, but she received a big surprise when the doctor said Deily had not been visiting him since one year ago, and he did not know if Deily was taking her medicine and for time she should take other medicine.

Her mother was in shock when the doctor said that information and the phone fell. She took the phone again and she said “How is it possible if all afternoon she goes out of the house? The doctor said “at that time I made several calls to you, but nobody answered the phone. Ok, you must pay attention to Deily’s medicine, and her food if she eats every meal or if she had had strange behavior like if she was alone you know how is the behavior. it is not known to you, this year I think that she could have worsened. I assume she has not been to her other doctors'' 

Deily’s mother, immediately, went to Deily’s bedroom, and she started to find the medicine in the closet, on the desk, and under the bed. It was despair that the whole bedroom was untidy until she saw something stand out in one of the photographs on the wall, she touched and removed that. In that space, there was a small hollow where there was all the medicine that Deily had not taken for one year. Instantly, Deily's mother took all the medicines and went to the dining room with a wounded soul, and her heart broke into a thousand pieces, her tears streaming down her face like an unceasing waterfall. She thought “all the effort, time in vain when all this happened that I did not figure it out.” She went to sit on the chair in front of the table when she heard that someone was coming to her house and It was her daughter. Instantly she wiped her tears.

Deily said “ Hi mom, today was a great day for me. What about you?” Her mom seriously saw her daughter, but she changed her expression and she said “Oh! Today was a normal day with some news that was surprising for me by anyway. Tell me how you were with your doctor and I know that you have to change your medicine ”  Instantly, Deily changed her expression a little scared and worried, she started to touch her head and mumble. She said, “Oh the doctor said that I am progressing and that is all, ok, I am going to my bedroom, I am tired”. Her mother said “stop, are you sure that you are telling me the truth? you have another opportunity to tell me the truth, please”. Deily ran to her bedroom, she locked the door, she sat on the floor in front of the mirror and touched her head when she saw her best friend on her bed. Deily said “what are you doing here? How did you get into my bedroom?” her friend said, “that is simple, I came in through the window, I supposed that you needed my help, I am right. Always  when you fight with your mother I am here.” 

Deily thought “no no!! I am confused. What was happening to me all was right. I do not understand why you are here, you are my best friend right, no no why are you back, I am fine.” Her friend said “you need me, we can be together forever, the only thing that you have to do is close your eyes and you will dream forever”. Deily with a lost look took the scissors from the desk, and she said “you promise me that we are together forever. I do not want to suffer either to be alone, the only partner was my photographs, drawings, and poems that I could express my emotions”. She said to her best friend “I promise you, I will always be with you, your faithful friend”. 

When Deily hurt her wrists of hands and she slowly fainted and in her mind remember that, she was alone in the forest when she was in high school outside her class, there was no anybody, and Mery was the only person that she talked to in the forest and the bedroom she was talking with herself in from on the mirror nobody was there. 

Her “best friend” was the product of her mind. It was only her imagination, like some voices that she thought that she was in a conversation. All this happened because she did not visit her doctors and she did not take her medicine.

When her mom came into the room, Deily was in an agonizing state and she said “I am sorry for all mom, I love you, I was fine but I could not stand it, going to the doctor and taking my medicine ” her tears fell on her face. She closed her eyes and said always together. 

Throughout my life, I have heard of some diseases ranging from the simplest like influenza to the most complicated to treat that lead to death like cancer, that is, catastrophic diseases that appear with certain symptoms, but it is already difficult to treat, and they only have a short time to live. In these diseases is to live in the hospital, to be visiting the doctor every moment, and take a lot of medicine so that you can extend your life, but it is no longer the same because you live to be locked up in your house and live with the ailments of the disease. On the other hand, some illnesses are related to the mind, I heard about them once, but I didn't pay much attention because I always say those things will not happen to me, but life took its course with my daughter. A disease of the mind that would change the way of living of my daughter, that is to say, it would affect her life, and it would change the course of our lives forever. Specially mi life.

Schizophrenia, she would become my daughter's best friend. When all this started about three years ago. I thought that with treatment, she would go back to the way she was before, but that was my mistake because treatment was not enough, and I had to be with her. As I said before, three years ago, my daughter had a normal life, had friends in high school, and went out with them. She liked to take pictures, which she passed in her room, another thing that she loved was writing poems which she wrote in a particular notebook that had a password. I could never read her poems. Suddenly her behavior began to change, and I began to notice strange behavior in her, one day, I noticed that her look was lost, and one day, she told me that she heard voices at night or when she was alone at home. At that moment, I got worried and felt so helpless because I couldn't give her something. I didn't know how to help her, it was inexplicable.

Then I decided to take him to a general doctor, but he told me that it was not the physical but that it had to be of the mind and that I should go to a psychologist first. The psychologist was able to tell me that I could visit him to continue with treatment but my daughter needed medicine for only the psychiatrist could prescribe, so I went to a psychiatrist who would become my daughter's doctor. So from the first visit, the psychiatrist interviewed my daughter and me, as well to rule out any other illnesses before giving the final result, unfortunately, the final diagnosis was schizophrenia. So the psychiatrist said she had to take antipsychotics to control this illness even if it goes away. Instantly, my daughter was devastated that her life had already changed and now she had to take these medications. I  could say that she accepted it in the best way because there was hope. For two years,  she took all her medicine and was fine, I trusted her. So, I didn't care about her, I was almost not at home because of work, and we only had time at the night to be together, and that was my mistake to stay away from her and let her handle the situation on her own.

I learned a lot from this disease with my daughter, but not enough to save her, which hurts my soul because in this disease as parents we must always be with them because it is not only her disease but of the family. After all, we are with them at all times to know how to give them understanding, love, and above all trust and not make them feel crazy because it is something of the mind that is inexplicable, a total mystery.  Although my daughter is no longer with me, which is painful, I could say that I learned the hard way that I should never have left her alone, but this experience leads me to believe that I can help other people who suffer from this type of illness.

So, my daughter's friend was always schizophrenic until the day she died. In the beginning, I was with her, I was always aware of her medication which should not be exceeded because it is dangerous. In the last year, I saw her well so I no longer told her about her medication, if she was visiting the psychologist or the psychiatrist, and I didn't bother to call him either because I thought everything was going well and I didn't hear her talking to anyone or telling me anything. When one of his friends told me that he was in the forest alone but that she had told him he was with her friend, I couldn't believe it.

So, I could have helped her, to help her cope with this disease, kept an eye on her if she visited her doctor, called her to know how she was progressing because the medicine was changing for better results, and not left her alone for so long. Another thing I had to ask her teachers how her behavior in class was or talk with her friends about how felt my daughter, but I did not do that. The only that I can say is that I should never have left. 

If this experience would be back, I am sure that since this disease started with my daughter. I would have been with her. I would take care of her if she felt well. Make some activities together as she used to take photos to be near her. Going to the doctor together. But all this does not change that my daughter is dead, but it has helped me to change the life of the other people that are happening from this horrible disease. So, they never say again that I am with my friend “schizophrenia."
