Could use some words of encouragement/support. It's very tough after years of self degradation and isolation, all while living with schizophrenia.

Might sound kinda weird but I find stuff like what you describe really compelling, like it always impresses me to hear about the ways that a person "manages" an unruly part of themselves like that. Your mental musculature must be big boy strong![palestine-strong palestine-strong](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/e1adbe05-ebf7-4265-a418-1ce483031977.png)
Honestly, it hasn't come without enormous mental struggle and self-introspection. It's been almost a half a decade now of trying to figure out who i really am and unlearning negative biases, both from the negative schizo-talk and the extremely white, christian, conservative, rural community I grew up in (racism/elitism/anti-immigrant/lgbt+phobic/etc)![doomer doomer](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/e29727db-5b25-4c11-9d6a-46a0b389e114.png)
I still have so much to learn (yay!), and unlearn (booo :( ) when it comes to those biases. Here's to the never ending struggle comrade![spongebob-party spongebob-party](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/495ba447-99c5-418b-9258-ed30a9fc1222.gif)
Heyyyy we're both stuck in Christian conservative rural areas, cool. At least I can say I know that feel in that respect. Solidarity comrade
Well I moved to a more urban centre which is more accepting, problem is up the latter hasn't changed much.
I even was able to vote left-wing last election! (even though the party called me a fascist basically)![doomer doomer](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/e29727db-5b25-4c11-9d6a-46a0b389e114.png)
