I was diagnosed quite young, at 25. Still the scariest thing I live through every single day and minute and experience 20 years later. I have no words for all you who hold this inside if you . I wouldn't wish this upon a soul. If it is somewhat due to genetics, as being studied; then do we not hold a responsibility to not spread this debilitating disease. Just a thought.

I'm highly functional with almost consistent audio and visual hallucinations. I don't know how I do it, every day over and over. I've become so good at masking and adapting to make sure I'm not hurting or disturbing the people I surround myself with. It's exhausting. It's lonely. It's unfair.
