ive been diagnosed with schizophrenia since age 18 and have been hearing voices and seeing things since 4 years old. sometimes its real hard to cope with others its manageable. my thought is that i always had it but since doing alot of psychedelic drugs in college i made it way worse. ive been in a community care home for 2 years and am finally getting out, heading to an apartment complex for the mentally ill. the only upside to my illness is that im pretty much getting paid to be crazy thanks to disability. it has practical benefits like cheap meds (my risperdal consta would be 300 dollars per shot without medicaid) and others like the fact that ill have alot of spending money since the apartment im going to is really cheap rent (and free wifi ftw)

anybody else have any mental illness?also, i would like to demystify and destigmatize this illnes so if you have any RESPECTFUL questions go ahead and ask
