    I suffered from anxiety, paranoia, and possibly schizophrenia. My mind raced with absurd delusions about everything. My body was always tense and uncomfortable and I always had trouble going to sleep because just as I would drift off I would start hearing voices.

    I could barely function in high school although academics weren't really a problem for me. I got accepted into a university but I had to drop out because the symptoms became unbearable. I attempted suicide twice and was planning a 3rd time. Every day was a living nightmare. I could barely interact with people.

    My life is great now. I am happy and content. I became even happier when I found this community.

    I just wanted to share this. I feel like chatting with anyone about anything. I hope you all find whatever it is that you're looking for in life.

    Peace.

    That's great to hear. I think everyone has enough inner strength to overcome these things. Its just a matter of finding it.

    That's great man, glad you got out of it. I have never had such problems..
    So how did you get out of it? Wanna share some thoughts? It would be interesting to hear, I think. And also helpful for people who still feel like you used to.

    Yes, it would be great and helpful if you decided to share your story.
    It's always good to find the necessary strength to recover. Congrats for that and good luck with your life.
    How are your studies going? Have you found a way to get back to them? It would be a pity not to.
