Do you? Like do you say how you’re feeling etc… is it ok?
I gave up Facebook…
It was the one place I got to meet everyone who I’ve purposely ignored my whole life…all in one site.
lol i tend to start facebook accounts everytimes i get symptoms… weird,…
Some people do it, a friend of mine does it, she has depression and anxiety, has less stigma so I guess it’s okay, nobody really cares on facebook unless you’re very popular.

I post about how I am feeling and mental illness in general on FB. Only a couple of people regularly respond to those posts.
Just generally. Not that im sza but more that im disabled mentally…
Most people who i grew up with knew i was off
Post what you want its fb…have you seen what the sociopaths post on social media…
I don’t have a facebook, I call it facefrick
When I was on FB i posted about depression and many people gave a ‘like’ lol …but whenever I posted something about psychosis it almost went unseen.
So… what @minnii says.
I really think media should push more to break the stigma around sz.

Well you have to learn that you represent yourself and no one is going to hold your hand here we’re all adults here.
Maybe take up your own work of media?
I wrote a story inspired by Bryan and it will be published now in September. I wish I had more energy to actually write an article about mental illness…still I don’t know who would publish it.
Can you tell me a bit about your story? don’t spoil me too much.
Oh but it is written in my language. I tried to sort of translate it but it looks bad 
Its about a guy with schizophrenia. He starts the story contemplating about his childhood and how he had to hide his excessive imagination. Then he speaks from the present time when he is in the bar waiting for his brother. They are going to private party.
Basically he contemplates about his illness, the thought broadcasting, voices, his sexual life and consensual reality…
I’m thinking about maybe trying to translate it again for you folks.

I once was open about having problems. Got loads of support. But feel slightly foolish about it now - not sure why.

I only mention them when I come to a limitiation. Today is a perfect example, my stepmother came from a different state and I feel unwell to drive so I couldn’t see her and it’s been years.
Very frustrating. But I try to avoid it unless it overwhelms me then I’ll begin to mention to people what I go through daily.
I’m planning to put on FB that I live in a home because I want to pay tribute to my providers when I mark my year of non-smoking come October 2.

I actually use Snapchat 
I would usually post black and white pictures if I’m feeling low but then I’d follow it up with humor because I don’t want people knowing I’m truly suffering 
After I got sick a year ago (14 months), I posted on Facebook daily (and Google Plus) for 6 to 8 months. I was FULL ON delusional. I posted ALL about the brain study and how I was gifted, how I was a multi-billionaire and an Angel of God (defined as Collective Consciousness). I talked about how the study was going to end soon and I was going to be going home to my palace. I could go on and on. It was straight up wack-a-doo. I even posted pics of the $2M luxury cars I was sure I owned that were being kept from me. Can’t really go back on all that, lol. So… “everyone” knows I am schizo now and who cares? WTF ever. I’m over it. I’m still a great person. I rarely post on there now but, when I do, I’ll just say I’m doing good, feeling better etc. I’m not a big FB’er anymore like I was before I got sick. Nothing to talk about anymore, lol.
ya my thoughts exactly the day I get ■■■■■■■■ on the internet for scaring someone online is the day I die of laughter. although I get the occasional smarten up and stay out of trouble talk sometimes with people. Not on facebook though I don’t.
