Hey my friend!
Well, I think if there were adapted workplaces, there would be more chance that people with schizophrenia could work.

if the negative symptoms are gone you can work and also positive symptoms, cured in other words

I do not know if you reduce the risk of a new psychosis by doing nothing all day long. If that were the case then I would not do anything all day. But that’s not how it works. People need daily activity’s.

go out and meet three people a day in a year you well have meet you your town, in a few years the state. maybe the world. disabled is had to sale. but if you are. the each day is a struggle and you cope the best you can. and now and Zen you get it right.
Is this a pun for ‘now and then’ ? Very clever, made me chuckle.

I am disabled but I am trying to work. It’s hard but I am going to keep trying. I called Social Security and I guess it’s on me to let them know to stop my benefits or not. I have been using my 9 month trial work period and so far I think I am making more than SGA.
My 9 months are up in May. They said I could make all the money I want for 9 months but then there are restrictions.
I am still very sick though. Yesterday I was only able to work about 2 hours before it got so bad that I had to leave.

That’s the same attitude I have. I don’t make any apologies. This isn’t a joke!
Physically, I’m far from disabled. I’m blessed to have a relatively healthy body. On the other hand, the negative symptoms make it almost impossible for me to work. I wish I could just kick these symptoms away, but I think they are here to stay.

at home I don’t really feel disabled so I’m thinking about goin out to make some money. ill have to wait til I’m working to see if I can handle it or not. not going to lose my benefits though, ill work as much as I can without losing them
Yes, I’m disabled. On top of not being able to cope with stress well, I have a lot of negatives. Plus also I’m physically disabled.

I got disability when I had my first psychosis. After I got out of the hospital the second time I wanted to work. I went to my local state run rehabilitation services. They wouldn’t help me because the doctor did a psychological evaluation on me and said I was unfit to work. I went out on my own and found a job. I started out cleaning toilets and eventually worked myself into a trade. I spent 10 years trying to work before applying for disability. If I thought I could work I would.

Yes, I used to be on SSDI but I got the stupid idea to apply for a job at Target and lost it. Now trying to get it back.

I am. I wish I could live without feeling apologetic, but can’t shake getting guilted about it and so will sooner or later find work that gets me off SSDI. Then people will guilt me over other reasons. It’s an unbearable cycle.
