Ask me anything you wanted to know about mental illness and how it is.

What do visual and audio hallucinations look and sound like for you?

I hear voices so audio hallucinations. I hear voice inside my head with whom I can talk too. Sometimes voice says he will fuck me up .

When I was unmedicated I completely lost sense of Reality because voice wanted my attention at all times.It was hell.

if you have experienced affective instabilities before (the diagnosis schizoaffective disorder suggests you have), how do you think these intersect with schizophrenia (or the psychotic elements of schizophrenia)? where does one end, where does the other begin? can they be conceptually separated (based solely on your experience), or are they homogeneously intertwined?
