Hello everyone.

Today I had a day like many others at first. Filled with anxiety and dread, thinking of the end.

But as I was reaching the afternoon, I met someone on a Discord. She is a young person who has multiple voices that talk to her. I started asking her about it. We ended up discussing it via DM. She explained to me a lot about it, I listened with lot of interest, even shared some comments of my part, tried to make her feel a lil bit better as some of the voices were mean to her. I believe I helped her be a lil bit better with it.
But regardless, this conversation completely absorbed me for a few hours. Nothing obsessive or perhaps driving me crazy, just... an intersting conversation. Kept my mind focused on something.
She ended up inviting a friend who had visions. Didn't have too lengthy conversation, but it was nontheless a short intersting one, and I am hoping to be able to continue this conversations tomorrow.

During this time, my mind was completely blank. For such a brief moment of time, I felt completely disconnected. After this, I decided to continue by playing one of the two games I have bought two weeks ago but haven't started yet: I was sitting on them, like some sort of emergency supplies, to have in case I felt extreme boredom. I decided this was a good time to go for it.

I am about to go to bed. Dunno. I wouldn't say more optimistic, but certainly more calm. I hope I'll be able to replicate this feeling tomorrow.

I see I wanna speak more with fascinating people like this in the future. It is a shame I cannot chat here, I was banned and am not capable of doing an appeal, but regardless, I imagine there are hundreds of you here who are as intersting to talk to, and hope I'll have a chance to meet you all. Perhaps in a Discord instead? is there such a thing as an SS discord?

Dunno what else to say. I guess that is all. Thank you for making this community possible. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

What a nice thing to read so much positivity! Meeting new people is great, especially here, so many incredible stories, good or not that good, but always interesting

That is one of the benefits to be found chatting with others. It can really shift your perspective when you listen to other people's experiences. We all take too much for granted about how we see the world and listening to someone else can sometimes open the mind and be good for us too. I think being willing to do that is a really positive thing.

It's good to hear you had a good day. Distraction can be constructive. I think the more one engages in captivating and complicated activities, the easier it is to cope. It could be to have an interesting discussion like you had, or to learn how to dance, do yoga, read a book on philosophy, practice martial arts, and what have you. I don't know if it's a path to recovery, but it buys some time at any rate. I keep my fingers crossed that you will have a good day tomorrow too.

I'm confused. Didn't realize you can be banned from chatting yet not from posting? Sorry to hear that though. Hearing voices and being completely alone with them is absolute unrelenting hell. I'm glad that person has some people to talk to.

Oh yes you can. I was banned, a moderator contacted me to confirm it. Sadly, I haven't been able to appeal it.

She seems fine. Her two voices are rather good, in fact one of them is constantly trying to convince her to be more chill (it's name is Chill). So I think it is for the best for her.
