For me, I went out of the house to look for jobs. I make myself working for full time again. Iām getting myself a permanent job in the government and find a few target jobs I can further pursue. I have done a lot to make it possible and probable. I think it would be likely that I will land on a job at the right level in a few years. It will be easy. The hardest part is in the past. I will have enough money to support myself for this life.
Also, I have a very good relationship with my parents we are getting along very well. I often tell mom I love her. I make my mom happy. She sometimes gives me a hug. We are good companion.
The third thing, Iām making myself walk again. The foot pain is more tolerable now. I wish to do stretching more often to see if I can get rid of foot pain completely. I want to manage 4 to 5 hours of daily walk eventually. I am walking about 2.5 hours in a day right now. I am making walking and hiking my hobby again.

Iāve written a 6,000 word short story that I am proud of. Iāve also written a 5,000 word short story that is still in the re-write stage. I think it has a lot of potential.

Made sure my son is surrounded by loving people, left alone by unloving ones and doing wellā¦which sounds natural but was quite a fight. Made sure he is feeling loved, even when I am barely standing myself and he cant live with me.

I stopped smoking
I stopped drinking and using drugs
I managed my money well enough to buy a place to live meaning it isnāt much but it is paid for
I completed a bachelorāsāI did an MA also, but the bachelorās was hard!
Iāve maintained a healthy weight for several years
Iāve cut ties with the particularly abusive people in my family
But I think the hardest thing Iāve done was a little less than a year and a half ago when my husband and I moved out of the 1344 sf home we were buying (Iād been there for 11 years), cleaned it up, did a TON of repairs and sold it and then got settled here in a mere 300 sf of projectāwe have what we need to finish things except for time and expertise. I wanted to drop everything on the other property and run so bad! It was a very difficult process and we still arenāt settled here but Iām still convinced that it will be worth it in the end and I am super-impressed that my husband and I still like each other and that I havenāt at least tried to move into a motel.

Algebra is hard. I never finished a real algebra class in college; it was too difficult.
I achieved most of my dreams only after psychosis.
Studied - worked - made a lot of friendsā¦ got fit - got into a relationshipā¦
and now it is just getting much better day by day. The only problem is how to achieve happiness? On this freakin illness.

I was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia in 1980 at age 19.
In 1988 I was eating a bowl of popcorn and I got a piece stuck between my teeth. It bothered for over a year.
In 1989 with much effort on my party and tons of support and encouragement from people who were close to me, I finally got that little bugger out for good.
Not only was I proud of myself but I feel like I made my family proud too.Now I feel like if I can accomplish that, then I can accomplish anything.
