As International Bastard said earlier in the thread, there's pretty much no such thing as schizophrenia support groups, there are support groups for relatives of people with it, but none for the people with it themselves.

One of the major symptoms of many illnesses is extreme difficulty socializing. Schizophrenia is one such illness. Most are extremely reclusive.


Um, actually there are groups for those with schizophrenia. Google “Schizophrenics Anonymous”, “ schizophrenia and related disorders alliance of America”, “Schizophrenia national support organizations”

I just found about these support groups just by spending less than 10 minutes on Google.

I’m pretty sure I couldn’t find a person within a hundred miles that share my common interests. At least, none who would admit to it anyway.

The internet does provide community for those who suffer social repression. A place where you can talk and not be afraid of losing your livelihood.

All of those groups are extremely small and there are not many support groups. The first one doesn't even have a presence in more than a third of the country. They have only 150 support groups in the entire country.

And the internet is great for many things. Shit, I used to suffer a ton of social repression, looking back at it, it mostly my fault, but I’m not saying that is the case for everyone. But I would strongly suggest looking at communities that are on the internet that are regulated and moderated by actually professionals.

Shit, when I was on the chans, I must of told 100s of “f**” to “go kill themselves” and I was told that atleast a 100s times. If one must, go to a forum owned and operated by professionals.

Yeah, /B/, but that was almost a decade ago. During my brief time in GamerGate, I spend most of my time on /pol/

Okay, so you're judging the entire site based on the two boards with the consistently worst moderation. Including one that literally has no rules beyond not allowing illegal content. But yeah, you're sure an "expert" on 4Chan boards. Did you even know there are boards that are strictly safe for work?

And thus from discussion about state arranged marriage we got into mental illness discussion. Shouldn't there be one specific thread for that?

To be fair it's hard for a thread like that not to be derailed.
The OP's proposal is so bloody stupid you can't really discuss it beyond "yeah that is awful".

Between the thread going careening off the rails, the OP having apparently faffed off almost a month ago after barely responding, and the thread largely having run through the entire range of "WTF is this?" and arguments explaining in excruciating detail the problems with the OP's proposal.... methinks it's past time to stick a fork in this one.
