I’m not bored. As a matter of fact I make an effort to be on here. It’s the only place that I feel I’m like other people :woman_shrugging:

Mostly stayed because it helped a little at the start of my schizophrenia where i could post random things. I might start up my old ramble threads again.

I find this forum therapeutic and sometimes use it when I get bored from other things like games and music.

I come to this site because I am an afflicted person. A doc suggested that I start a blog to tell my side of the story. But then I didn’t know how to go about getting readers to the blog or how to promote the blog. Here I get to meet like minded folks who go through more or less the same situation as I do.

Nice stories guys! This site is a good place to be when you need it.

Hopefully if we work together we can get some freedom from our schizophrenia.

It’s a good site to turn to for schizophrenia help.

This feels like a community to me with all the different people.

It’s something that has been missing from my life in my hometown for some time.

I like the fact we can help each other, and discuss things that are on our minds.

There is a good amount of international posters here, so there always seems to be people online much of the time

I prefer to connect with people online than in the real world. Moreover, I feel at home with a psychotic disorder.

Usually I don’t have time to go to this website because I am at work. However, this website is alleviating because there are other schizophrenics like myself on here.

I know politics is banned, but I don’t think activism should be. I would like to see some sort of push back against all the hatred and stigma that forces us to hide our true selves in public.

I have looked online mainly at Tedx videos, and a few years ago there was a real push to inform people about Autism, which seems to have helped those people.

Schizophrenia seems so far off attaining this level of begrudging acceptance from other people.

I want something to be done about this, as we’re a sizeable part of the population, and we’re ignored

I used to go on a french forum about sz. We had been talking a lot about what exists in France to help us to heal from the disease or to find a job, before people started leaving the forum to go on discord. I’m happy to come here and practice my english.

I use this site because I get bored easily. TV doesn’t interest me that much anymore and I don’t think I can get a job or go back to school so I come on here.
