Yeaaah it seemed Society thought some mental health matters n others dont.

Maybe someone well known had that diagnoses but aint many “Schizos” that are well known.

But why should such matter …

Shouldnt all diagnoses be included to get good health care snd support snd inclusion.

I have been isolated n disrespected etc and was denied the ndis.

Since my dog and i moved im not treated as badly but more nicely at shops etc

First Epstein survivor was diagnosed Schizophrenic.

Turned out she was telling the truth n traumatised.

She was believed by sooooomeone (unlike me n many).

She probably aint the only one.

I think lots of us survived trauma and ptsd would be diagnosis but we were not believed.

That can also cause hyper senssitivity .
