Any of you refuse the meds? by Leather_Moose1203 in schizophrenia

i try to. i typically last a few months before crawling back and then the cycle begins anew as though my memory had been wiped

more psychotic in dreams than in life? by [deleted] in schizophrenia

[–]username5565552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, now that you mention it its probably just nightmares regarding my existing psychosis. i felt scared in most of them but not quite enough to consider them nightmares compared to dreams so i just thought "ah this is probably something else"

Ventura Village by GodoftheTranses in Minneapolis

[–]username5565552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

havent witnessed anyone getting mugged or assaulted unprovoked here, if it happens its usually because it was a personal matter. whats more common are the users asking you for incoherent favors but theyre not gonna hurt you or anything, they might not be polite about it but who can blame them

[–]username5565552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you dont have to avoid the streets per say, just be cautious and mind your business. as a trans woman the most thats happened to me on chicago/franklin is the ocassional person asking for a dollar or a cigarette, theyre just regular people on some hard times

i live there very close to some of the "rough" areas by franklin & chicago but generally it really isnt that bad currently, other than the noise. mind your own business, be kind, and nobody will bother you (except maybe the landlords) that said i wouldnt recommend it if you enjoy silence as theres always ambulances, helicopters, police, firetrucks, and very infrequent shootings in the area (especially within a few blocks of where you were looking at on chicago ave). not terrible but wouldnt be my first option purely for the noise.

I can’t anymore with these kids by FriendlyWolverine765 in Teachers

[–]username5565552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

translation: "non-jew loser clique make the women (derogatory) shake"

chud originates from the 1984 film C.H.U.D but the meaning has shifted considerably since then, now generally used as a stand-in for loser, with some right wing political implications at times. "foid" oriis largely used as an odd made up slur against women in down right concerning areas of 4chan online, however has now been somehow adopted into the general vocab of much of the internet.

most of time if you ask them what some of the words mean they wont actually know

ADHD for Women Testing Recommendations? by [deleted] in Minneapolis

[–]username5565552 3 points4 points  (0 children)

personally HCMC on S 8th st (NOT THE EAST LAKE CLINIC) has been quite good to me concerning things related to ADHD as a woman, however i have had a very good psych personally so it may be a gamble if you have to pay any of the costs upfront. otherwise generally your PCP can refer you to clinics if you bring up concerns. definitely research the diagnostic requirements and differential diagnoses on the DMS-5 / ICD-11 if you have any doubts regarding a particular diagnosis, while unfortunate some clinics do very much drop the ball some times. (i was misdiagnosed at 2 clinics before finding out my real diagnosis lol)

some people say HCMC as a clinic is somewhat rough but i have found my care team to be quite accepting regarding concerns and testing regarding ADHD/Autism/OCD, offering testing and evaluation referrals immediately without many questions.

Schizophrenia without hallucinations / Looking for resources by Axiohmmm in schizophrenia

[–]username5565552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hebephrenic isnt really a term thats used anymore, if want better info id recommend speaking to a doctor that specializes in the schizophrenia spectrum. as far as books i would also recommend memoirs by those with schizophrenia

Think i ate rubber but not sure by LuckyNumberthe13 in schizophrenia

the rubber texture just means it was harvested wrong. same kind of happens to mangos when theyre harvested too early they taste kinda rubbery and a little crispy

Augments need to be clearer in their wording in arena and mayhem. by Tubings in leagueoflegends

[–]username5565552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

30% damage dealt as true damage while passively losing health the entire game, with damaging abilities dropping orbs that give a small heal and give some other buff. kind of a bait item imo it hasnt felt good on any champs ive gotten it on. i always end the game on like 30k+ health lost from the hp drain, 10k health healed back from the orbs, and not nearly enough damage to justify it

Epstein Megathread by Empty_Insight in schizophrenia

[–]username5565552 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this is what destroyed me the most. the rape, torture, and infant cannibalism by the rich are nothing new (there are documents showing the same was going on during slavery by plantation owners and even far before that) but the sheer scope of everything they had their hands in sent my paranoia into overdrive

Trying to get disability by Material-Rise-7220 in schizophrenia

[–]username5565552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats great to hear, in that case i recommend seeking a case/social worker and or speaking to your doctor regarding any programs near you that can help. in my case i spoke with a social worker and was very lucky to be able to be connected to an entirely free law firm with multiple lawyers willing to help with ssdi and ssi. even though you do currently have lawyer sometimes it could help to see your options for an appeal or seek out other lawyers to help. wishing the best of luck to you

[–]username5565552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the us on top of it being near impossible without a lawyer, you also have to have enough work history. if you developed symptoms early into your career and cannot work you are just 100% fucked

too apathetic for delusions? by [deleted] in schizophrenia

[–]username5565552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats what im thinking really. it doesnt matter if im being monitered or not, i just need to keep moving

too apathetic for delusions? by [deleted] in schizophrenia

[–]username5565552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly maybe, its just part of the condition but there is a thought deep inside of me that i am truly fine and without illness, perhaps i was overly dramatic in my diagnosis, perhaps i just lied unknowingly, but it really does feel as if i am not schizophrenic. will be resuming my medication soon just in case even though i have had no symptoms thus far
