I remember coming on here last year june and getting med advice.
Lately it just serves as a social platform to some extent.
What has this site done for you and have you made friends here ?

It’s great for support. Whenever I feel a bit psychotic or crazy, I come here and find people who can relate with my problems.

It is a good social outlet for me, meeting people and hearing what they’re going through. I don’t have a whole lot of people in real life who understand but everybody here is going through something similar.

Seeing some of the people on here holding down jobs and having marriages helped me along with my doctors to push myself to try again to do something. Plus overall the people here are supportive and understanding which is nice. I remember six years ago I thought my life was over after I had just dropped out of the university I was going to. I had to go to a mental hospital and outpatient program because I couldn’t cope and was suicidal. I didn’t believe anything good could ever happen in my life again. But now I’m doing much better.

I enjoy supporting others and giving advice.
I don’t use Facebook so I consider this place as a replacement.
I’ve also learned a lot listening to others.

I learned to help myself and open up in a supportive environment. I know what is real and what isn’t anymore. Stuff I talked about did happen, but in another life. I still remember and have anxiety and stuff. I learned not to be afraid.

I’ve learned a lot about my illness, how to approach the difficulties, different types of medications, the side effects, playing around with the different dosages, and most of all how most people on this website have dealt with similar problems and came out on top and have recovered a lot. I also post here to share my experiences and to give hope to people who are just starting on this journey. It’s not easy and people need all the support they can get towards there recovery.
This website and community has helped me a lot and I’m grateful for that.

I don’t feel alone anymore with my illness. I feel more confident and that less is hidden as far as my issues. It’s allowing me to grow in other areas. Coming here has truly been a blessing for me!

Well this site helped me a lot, as others had said it gave a lot of knowledge on this illness and that helped me a lot on dealing with voices, anxiety and depressive moods.
Socially I’ve overcame fears of going out and being with friends! It was hard when I thought my friends where on the voices 
. I also started again to post photos of myself on social media. It took me 5 years to feel comfortable with it and this site helped me a lot on that
