    My favorite part of the internet (aside from porn) is that there’s exactly zero obstacles in the way of people posting their unhinged schizo rants for everyone to read.

      Having schizo affective disorder it is exhausting hearing that every rant online is schizo in nature. (It has also resulted in being too scared to even share my opinion with you “normal” people, this is a rare occassion where my anxiety and fear of being berated for existing and having thoughts is less than my annoyance of reading YET ANOTHER post like this.) Not every person who rants is schizo. And also every schizo is different. Schizoaffective is VERY tame compared to full schizophrenia. I hear stuff sometimes. I smell things sometimes. It drives me crazy. But i can tell the difference between what is real and what is not. Im just not very stable.

      Because who is going to be stable when they hear a cat meowing or kid screaming for 4 hours or more? Even if its not real its really fucking annoying. So people get confused when i react angrily a lot because im always annoyed. Its not anyones fault. Im just hearing a cat for 6 hours and its really annoying please be patient is all that is asked and required.

      The unintelligence of humans regarding mental disorders is ridiculous. Theres exactly zero obstacles in the way of someone who doesnt understand the actual experience of being schizo from posting about things they think are schizo (without any proof) just because they can.
