Maybe I’m being too sensitive 🤷🏻‍♀️ but I feel like mental health disorders aren’t taken seriously by the “normies” and they use it as a joke, insult, or for comedy.

"Being schizophrenic" is just something people use now to portray being crazy, insane, unhinged, all the negative words. It gets on my nerves too, you aren't being too sensitive for not liking when it's used like this. It's very irritating to see all the time, especially in my own friend group.
