Just found out about my disorder

humorousAcres8948 December 10th, 2021

Hi everyone, I just got diagnosed with schizotypal disorder and unfortunately I can’t go to the therapist and maintain a professional treatment. Do you have any advices or life hacks for someone like me to make things easier? I never thought that I have such a problem, my life didn’t change after this discovery, however, I feel as if I took the victim role and persuaded myself that it’s the worst thing that could’ve happened to me and life is ruined😬. I hope that people can live peacefully and happily with such special qualities (i would call mine like that), like I intended to do before knowing about my problem?

@humorousAcres8948 I'm not an expert, but it seems to me that people can live peacefully and happily with special qualities of all kinds, and putting a label like "schizotypal" on them is not necessarily very helpful.

To make things easier…well, I wonder what things you wish to be easier? I imagine there are sources of self-help for the various individual aspects of schizotypal disorder if you can identify what your priorities are.
