Who else is schizo here? I'm going through treatment and need some solidarity so I feel like less of a freak.
I don't have schizophrenia, but I have a host of other diagnosed mental problems that deeply effect my life so I can slightly relate. How are you holding up?

It's nice to know someone else can relate. Everybody I tried to talk to about this in real life just said shit like "That sounds like you're living in the Matrix! It sounds so exciting :)))".
The meds I'm on are making me very depressed, and although I don't see things anymore, my "delusions" are still around. And I suspect my therapist is just trying to sedate me because I found out the (((truth))) about the world etc.
Thanks for asking
Im diagnosed with schizotypal disorder, which is somewhat related to schizophrenia.
I cant even talk to people, because it is somewhat hard for me to translate even the most basic thoughts to words. So every time I speak, some incoherent bullshit comes out of my mouth.

Schizoid-pd here.
Why do you feel like a freak OP?
Do you condemn yourself so harshly or do you deem others capable of judging you and your value?
Schizo isn't all bad, you just have to realize your vulnerabilities and susceptibilities, your mind and imagination is just more flexable, you have no solid anchor, no tether so when you visualize something you are far closer to it than others, it can pull you along, undermine your stable reality in a instant but at the same time it can be a great gift to have such an imagination.
Environment is what really helped me tackle behavioral patterns and from there get a lot better. Nice rural area with lots of open space, nature and not many people close by, no busy streets, really can't stress enough how much better it is for me compared to living in a city where there are just too many fucking stimuli, people, sounds and stuff happening to get paranoid over.
Apparently I have schizoid personality "disorder," but why would I need treatment for that? I just don't like dealing with anyone and their bullshit. I'm perfectly content to keep to myself and dedicate my attention solely to the pursuit of my personal hobbies.
Although schizoid traits are probably a far cry from schizophrenia. I don't hallucinate or have paranoid-delusional thoughts. I'm not even sure why they're lumped into the same diagnostic criteria.
