I live in Brazil and here there is a culture of gossip, almost everyone in my neighborhood knows each other, and when I was 15 I ended up losing my temper and provoking one of my neighbors, This person knows a lot of people near my house and ended up gossiping about me to everyone, as a teenager (15 years old) I was traumatized, When I was at school I was shaking all over, in 2017 I turned 16 and the voices appeared in my head (I associated these voices with people who talk and gossip about me) There are several insults and things related to my life, I want to distance myself from them and live my life without talking to these neighbors, I spoke to my parents about the subject but they always say that no one is talking about me, my older brother said that no one is talking about me because I am not known and I don’t leave the house, I’m sure all this happened but no one believes me, should I let it go? That was 7 years ago, but it’s as if it happened yesterday and I can’t forget it. It was a trauma that affected me and which I think was the reason I had schizophrenia.

I think you should let it go if you can. 7 years is a long time
I would listen to your family. Mine says the same things to me so I can relate.
In fact, I really should ignore the problem is that the houses here are all messed up very close to each other (Favelas) but you’re right, I’ll try to leave it there.

Thank you very much for your answer, I will follow your advice, I think my problem is not listening to what is best for me. I will trust my family.

I have problems believing it, but take comfort from my family’s input and am learning to trust and move on.
