I’m feeling bad. I feel my life is a complete waste. I didn’t get to experience the joys of life that everyone else experienced/experiences. SZ has stolen so much. How can I feel fulfillment and happiness, when my life is a complete waste?

Lives don’t work out for lots of people. Unhappy marriages, broken families, unsuccessful careers.
The way I look at it is schizophrenia saved me from a lot of potential heartbreak.
You’ve got to build a sense of worth that doesn’t depend on external “prizes”.
Your life’s not a waste.

I just see others happy and busy with life and children or fur babies and lots of friends and jobs. I’ll never have any of that. All of my family is like that and I just am the opposite. I don’t belong anywhere I feel like. I’m too crazy. Nobody wants any part of that.
Hey, I’ve got some plants, three succulents and a cactus. I missed out on life too. I’ve been alone in a room for twenty years.
I’m kinda proud of that.
Hit the reset button today and tell yourself that your goal is to recover enough to enjoy your life moving forward. Then make a list of goals that will help get you there. Start small with one or two things at a time at most and then work your way down the list as you scratch items off. Do this hard enough and long enough and there will be improvement.
