Over recent years I’ve come to realize that I have Paranoid Schizophrenia, and I’m just posting to tell anybody else with similar conditions that you are not alone, and that the is help for you in the world.
If anything, you can channel it into your music. I have. I do it a lot.
Point is, I get what you’re going through 
Stay safe.

It’s always a good idea to bring awareness to stuff like this. Even though my conditions aren’t really related or similar (well, depending on who you ask), sometimes it’s important to recognize the ‘invisible’ things people deal with.
I think the quantity of us living with “invisible disabilities” is probably higher than ever before, and unfortunately asking too many questions or trying to find plausible reasons behind the numbers makes everyone band together on teams and fight one another rather than everyone coming together and trying to understand it as best as we can, even if the reality opposes what we believe. (I also have no ideas, myself, but I think it ruins lives and should definitely be looked into a little harder than it is).
With that said, we’re all in this together. So the normies had better get used to it 
Although, do you have any interesting upsides with your condition? Mine’s a bit of a blessing / curse scenario, most of the time, so I’m wondering if there are any positive, or potneitally creative benefits that you sometimes gain in the process.

First of all, good to see you back, K! 
And to answer your question, absolutely there are some interesting upsides. Usually I start to go a bit iffy when I’m stressing about things, so I actually tend to remember key information on what I need to do.
To be honest, I think Autism is actually really useful, because I get so hyper-fixated on things that I never struggle to finish them, and always finish them at a high standard.
Everything means I can create very edgy sounds, but I’m not so sure if the downsides are worth it…

I think most of us on the spectrum feel that way, honestly. Not that it makes it any easier, obviously, but sometimes it’s good to know that the zigzagging and ‘spiky’ attributes are kind of what bind us, if that makes any sense.
Sounds like you’ve got a pretty creativity-provoking cocktail, though. It’s no wonder why your music kicks ass
