I snagged my F20 in just five minutes, but it took me a full three and a half years to get the F25

honestly though, who even cares...

I was wondering, for those of you living with schizophrenia, how long did the suspicion linger before you finally received an official diagnosis? Also, if you decided to open up about it, how did the people closest to you—like your parents, partners, or best friends—actually react?

lol in my case everyone knows
it usually goes one of a few ways: "it's all your fault"
then there's "grandma and grandpa are to blame"
or just "we don't really get what this is, but you've always been a little weird"
then back to "grandma and grandpa are to blame"
or "honestly, I don't really understand any of this stuff"
or "we don't know much about it, really"

🤣 🤣 🤣 they mostly don't even react, it's like they just vanish into thin air, you can't even tell how they felt
I actually self-diagnosed about three months before my first official diagnosis, though back then I didn't even know about schizoaffective disorder, which basically covers everything

man, please god don't let you end up with that crap, especially if it's mixed in with bipolar disorder
if there's any way you can dodge
do it by any means necessary
literally anything is better than psychosis, period
