Idk 😐

Ok @RiverSeal thanks I would say why I am upset but I would get my ass kick

Anyways hope you are okay I don't really know you happy to chat if U like 😀 I don't bite 😂

Hey @bartart23 I've been at SANE for just over 2 years and work here on the Forums on the weekend. I'm studying at TAFE and working part-time for a few organizations. I have a diagnosis of schizophrenia and was in and out of hospital for 10 years and found myself unemployed and I couldn't work anymore anyway back in 2016. I volunteered and studied to create a pathway into a new career and here I am at SANE. I've also been facilitating hearing voices groups since 2018 so have learned a bit about what others go through.

If you ever have any questions or anything about psychotic symptoms I would be happy to help out.

There's a great resource about schizophrenia that may be of interest to you depending on your diagnosis or whether you can just look at it because of your symptoms. Living Well with Schizophrenia - YouTube

Let me know what you think and I'm happy to chat any time!

Take care

RiverSeal

Oh @RiverSeal you have had a hard life I am sorry you did 😞

May I ask what sane does? Who everyone is are you all the same I am guessing Tyme is the boss or something? I think that's the name of him/her

I grow up in child safety all my life because of reasons I don't think I am allowed to say , my mum left me on the streets it's a long story. I've been in and out of hospital psych wards kids one and the adult one I have very complex mental health issues I can be a complex person at times I get very upset fast

I don't really have anyone I talk to I am alone sometimes I like to chat I thought I would come on here and make friends or just chat to a peer support worker whatever

I had a job but I left it I have been looking but nowhere is looking for new people

I gave up on that I recently had a birthday nobody ever saw me or said happy birthday who cares

I have been locked up this year the big house

I have always wondered why I have voices and hallucinations do you know how someone could get them or is it because of what happened to me as a kid?

You seem like a nice kid / young adult

I don't think my message made sense it's hard when the voices are around

I have 5-6 voices in my head

Hey, @bartart23 sure sounds like you have been through a lot more stuff than me in life. You are demonstrating your resilience and strength in reaching out and that is a stage of change.

Finding employment can be tricky at the best of times but there will be something out there for you if you want it and keep looking.

Tyme is the Community Manager here on the Forums so yeah they are the boss!! They are great 🙂 SANE does a lot of things so check out this link and take a look: Get support (sane.org)

Before I started working I spent a couple of years and the only person I had to spend my birthday with was my Case manager. I know at least it's someone but I lost everyone else due to my MH.

The big house would have been a lot and something I know nothing about. I wouldn't go too well in there as I am transgender.

Nobody knows where the symptoms come from but there are some theories if you want to research it a bit. It can be interesting to learn about it and I found it helped me recover having an understanding of what I was going through.

Thanks, I like to think I'm nice!! But I enjoy my job and supporting people so hopefully that brings out the best in me.

I had two main voices but others would pop in from time to time. My voices would come and go too so after a psychotic episode I would have no voices but my life would be destroyed. I would work at building it up again and then lose everything again as I watched my life disappear in front of me. Some people have dozens or 100 or more voices which would be very challenging.

Do you have safe housing at the moment @bartart23?

Take care

RiverSeal

Hey @RiverSeal that's a scary thought Tyme is the boss no wonder they emailed me haha now I am shitty myself I must be nice to them

I am guessing you know what the big house meant?

Is trans both sex's? Don't answer that

House is okay I just put myself on the street for 2 days because I had a very bad delusional episode bpd episode

I had a ugly fight with the family the other day I got loopy and want off my head

My house didn't feel the same after what happened not the fight

My partner asked him to marry them and start a family with bpd and the voices it's hard to know with they really love me

Also I'm bi I don't really like man I like the other ones more but I like both if that makes sense?

I am only young myself I have no clue what I want

What do you do for fun?

I like fishing and Xbox music 😀

Whenever you finish work we should talk another day if you want

I lost people too from MH you are not alone my friend ❤️

Hope we can chat more or before friends whatever

Ohh happy birthday @bartart23 ❤️

When is your birthday @bartart23 , @RiverSeal

Hey @Shaz51 it was last Sunday it really shows who cares about me doesn't it (safe)

Does anyone know about the different ages I am in my 20s but I have switched to 3 years old

I have different ages I switched from

It's so hard to come up with

Sorry if that's doesn't make sense 😕 I have switched to the 3 years old have a good night sorry again

Hi @bartart23

How have you been?

I just wanted to check in and see how you're getting on around here.

I hope you've had a good day.

I wouldn't say I am okay but it's fine honestly I am sick of everything I am sick of the switching (safe) before I get a email haha 😆
