Charting a path in the world after high school can feel overwhelming, especially when your thoughts or perceptions start to confuse you. Coming to terms with a diagnosis of psychosis can be hard, but it doesn't have to be a lonely journey. Many young people have walked a similar path, and you may be surprised by the common threads that connect their experiences with your own.

Coming to terms with a bipolar diagnosis can be challenging. What psychiatry labels as "mania" might feel to you like a rare moment of joy, even if it sometimes leads to decisions you later regret. Hearing from others with similar experiences can be reassuring, helping you recognise that these mood shifts are part of your condition, but also something you can manage with the right support.

"High functioning" may not remotely describe your reality. You might speak well, but still struggle with everyday things like answering the phone, leaving the house, getting to class, or making friends. You're not alone. Many others feel the same. There’s comfort in connecting with people who just get it. And honestly, what is "normal" anyway?

Adulthood brings a lot of pressure to keep things together. But when you're living with psychosis, you struggle to function at your best. It’s not a personal failing, it’s a treatable condition. Psychosis affects people from all walks of life. You’re not alone, and hearing from others who’ve been there can be a powerful reminder that recovery is possible.

Coming to terms with a bipolar diagnosis can take time. What psychiatry calls "mania" may feel to you like rare moments of productivity, even if they sometimes lead to decisions you later regret. Hearing from others with similar experiences can help you make sense of your own, and remind you that with understanding and support, it is possible to restore a sense of balance. 

Many autistic people know that “high functioning” doesn’t mean that you're functioning well. You might speak fluently, but still find things like work, social events, school drop-offs, dating, or small talk with neighbours overwhelming. You're not alone. There's real comfort in being around others who just get it. ​Nothing makes us feel as "normal" as being around people like us.
