Psychiatry then positions the problem in your brain, rather than the political and material circumstances of your life.
Psychiatry needs to do better.

Therefore, seemingly not "schizophrenic" ... Perhaps, said diagnoses are more a way for an Abrahamic culture to caste its people than it is #science telling you you're not #normal

We need to start talking about the fact that Autistic people are more likely to self-medicate, placing us at an increased risk of addiction.
It doesn't have to be a shameful secret.
I'm David, and I'm 7 years sober.

Many thanks to Tanya Adkin for laying out her concept of "meerkat mode" in this article.
I think a lot of people will relate to it.

People asked me to talk more about my experiences with psychosis. So I did!
"Autistic people may be less likely to receive support for psychosis"

Autistic people experience psychosis far more often than you would realise.
We have to start talking about it.
I'm Schizophrenic, and I will not be ashamed of that.

While they're at it, they could do with training on how to deal with knife-wielding schizophrenics rather than just shooting them dead.
A #schizophrenic in psychosis isn't threatening someone with a weapon, they're defending themselves against some delusional horror.

That led to a 27 years long forced medication that made me a cripple in every respect!

I thought he was there to watch me, but all he did was invite mormons round and generally ruin his part of the house.

These three together made me the perfect target for criminal exploitation.
I have spoken at length about those three experiences, but I still really struggle to talk about my life when I was being exploited.
I still hold myself responsible for a lot of harm.
If this is your story, I want you to know that *I see you* and *I hold space for you*
