I hate narcissists on social media talking about their illnesses. I'm bipolar and I've had two psychotic episodes where I thought the FBI was out to get me and I could read minds. And yet, I want mental illness stigmatized again and taboo to talk about openly.

I don't want to write a complete story but I had auditory and visual hallucinations/delusions. When I locked myself up in my room i'd look out the window and there was the stereotypical white van circling the neighborhood. I thought they were shooting sonar into the house and I could hear it coming through the pipes. When I'd look outside at night there were tons of police helicopters flying around. Whenever I wasn't actively in the room with my roommates I could hear them clear as day in my mind saying crazy shit. When I first started taking my medicine I could feel something like a robot crawling on my brain fixing stuff like a mechanic. These are some of the things I experienced during the second episode.

I agree. It seems like every other person is autistic because it's this quirky new mental illness.

Sorry you went through that anon, and hope that you're doing better now. City life is awful and can lead to pretty bad breakdowns. Highly recommend getting out into the country and into nature where you don't have vans or helicopters or people around to trigger bad thoughts.

I know, I know. Let me have a pass this one time to talk shit about people who run tiktok accounts to glorify their minor mental illness like it's something to be proud of.

Does 'neurodivergent' mean 'six years old'?

I'm good now. I take medicine and I haven't had a psychotic episode in three years. It did derail my life a bit but that's okay. Funnily enough, I was in business school with plans to move to the big city and be a financial advisor, but now I'm going to grad school to be a teacher so I can work wherever I want to.

Neurodivergent for me means the government satellite above my house starts beaming thoughts into my head at night again
But yeah I also like chippes and candies

> I eat only irritants and have no bladder control because I've melted my urinary track muscles, and my excuse is that I'm slightly autistic.
One of the greatest crimes done by our educational system against the last two generations was taking out home ed. classes.

Thanks for sharing anon, glad to hear that you're doing better. I asked because I curious if your experience was similar to something that I have experienced as well, it happened to me while I was also living in a city but whenever the neighbors upstairs would start talking I would interpret it as being my friends/family or even demons shit-talking about me. Things improved immensely when I moved out of the city

Its performative oppression. They want attention, and for people to sympathize with them, when in reality they're selfish idiots who can't handle that they're probably really boring. It's that whole idea that mental illness could cause you to be an unrecognized genius.

I'll admit I fell into that thinking when I was diagnosed as bipolar type II; hoping that I'd come out on the other side of a manic phase with some nouveau art, but in the end I just amassed a lot of debt and a suicide attempt.
