Hi

Welcome

I've been diagnosed with lots of different things over the years (including schizophrenia and the current one of schizoaffective disorder). Try not to let the diagnosis worry you too much - it's not a life sentence and it doesn't change who you are. It's just a label that (for some) can be a way of making sense of what's happening. For others it doesn't fit at all. Whatever works

If you want to share a little of what you're experiencing and how you're feeling, am sure people on here will try and offer some support. I'm struggling a bit with voices and paranoia myself, so not always on here that much at the mo - but I've found everyone here really welcoming and helpful - hope you do to

Take care

x PMG
