hi, so I was recently diagnosed with schizophrenia and I feel really lonely. I know there are people to help and kindness exists but I would like to maybe meet someone or attempt a friendship with someone who can relate to me. I really struggle with voices and sometimes visuals can be bad and I don't know any one who can talk to me about this. But idk not really a question... but someone should talk to me 🙃

I have had voices in the past that I only have hints of now. One thing I have heard of is that the voices can guide you in a positive way too! Mine were demanding, but not always negative. I believe there is a Ted talk or two by Eleanor Longden on youtube describing her relationship with her voices. There's a few I checked. Elyn Saks has a few things to say too.

I'm not sure how much support you're looking for. I can be your friend, but my voices tend to resemble girls who would recommend me dead because Im not the type of person to stay interested for long, about anything.

I also have it. I had the onset at 17 and honestly had no support and I didn’t find out. I had it until age 33 so I lost all my friends my university my job and everything so now I just work a menial job but hopefully things go up from here.
