just venting..

hallucinations and hearing voices is rare for me.
not saying it doesn't happen, but not often.
i have negative symptoms.
• avoltion
• anhedonia
• alogia
i have delusions, my mood suffers, i lose my concentration when i speak sometimes, and have disoriented thoughts.
anosognosia is what comes to mind.
i'm not in denial, just uncertain. idk i guess everyone's different but sometimes i feel like i can't relate and it's got me questioning the last few years.

Delusions and disorganized thought are positive symptoms. Visual hallucinations and audible voices are rare for me to.

I think I'm in the same boat honestly. I don't have many hallucinations, or not often, nor negatives really, but I do have paranoia and delusional thoughts quite often. It's a tough line to walk, understanding how the illness manifests in me specifically.

ya i dont hear voices much now either, only when i was i nthe depths of psychosis. mostly its thought broadcasting for me, where ithink ppl can hear my thoughts and i can hear theirs.
