How To Deal With Schizophrenia ?

Dealing with schizophrenia is difficult. I can't lie about the experiences I've dealt with having this disorder. Lots of people like to laugh at those dealing with difficult illnesses, which is why I found the strength to speak up about my differences. 
The truth: I'm not always strong enough to deal with the constant noise. I don't think I'll ever just "get used to it." I'm tired of acting like it doesn't affect me because it does. 
It's not easy explaining what schizophrenia is to a world where most people don't hear voices in their head 24/7. 
I'm tired of being tired. I am sick of pretending like everything is okay in my head when it's not. 
If you're reading this, try to be more grateful for the little things you possess. Most people get happy over material possessions.. while a peace of mind is what I thrive for. We have to start reframing the way we see our lives and just be.
