It was just one message. They called me delusional because my school project goal was to reduce psychotropic drug use by using virtual reality.

I think it’s an interesting idea. I use all kinds of coping strategies to function at a lower dose, so I don’t think it’s unreasonable for you to search out the same as well.

I am not going to reveal who said it though because I am a better man.

I’ve definitely been insulted on here. I was off the forum about a month. But he/she and are civil now.

Some people say things cause they’re off their meds to. You can’t take it personal

I did get insulted. Something like calling me a ■■■■…but with other words. Its interesting … i didnt insult people but they flagged me for every lilttle reason. But when i was called a ■■■■…nobody flaged that person. Even though its a public humiliation and it is against the law.

Yeah you might be right. They did seem a little bit unstable so I should just ignore it.

I just wanted to talk to someone because it really hurt my feelings.

Yeah. This person hurt my feelings too. He/she was unstable when saying those things about me

It was also a big misunderstanding. He/she thought I was being rude and got mad at me

It is fine though. I guess I could talk to everyone here about the results of my project once I am done with it.

This person does come off as being exceptionally mean.

We’re all just trying to survive.
I’ve been insulted a few times on here. I’m sorry that you were insulted. You seem very nice.
I feel strongly about how I cope and function with sz, but I understand that we’re all individuals and will stand by whatever works for us individually.
Even when I’m insulted on here and consequently feel like an outsider, this forum is still the only place I can talk about my experiences and predominantly be understood.

I agree that this is a great forum but it feels really bad to be insulted. Especially since I already have self-esteem issues.

I think you should report to the mods with a screenshot. People think they can say anything because of ‘free speech’ but That has nothing to do with a private owned forum not does it mean free from consequences.

Call them out.

Its okay. I just want to talk to people about it to help me cope with it better.

I agree. That shouldn’t have happened. No one should insult you. They might feel threatened because you’re trying something that feels dangerous to them, so they lash out. But insults are just an immature way of dealing with that fear. Don’t take it personally (try not to).

Yeah I just got to be forgiving and not take it personally. Not everyone is stable here so I just got to realize that.
