I just got my official diagnosis, apparently i do have schizophrenia.
I struggle with modern life, it seems dull.
Since i wont be able to work im thinking of focussing on making art, theres art classes at an open University across my house.
My meds make me not feel fully alive.
I just feel really down about everything, i see friends having great careers and i just have to give up on that.
On the flip side i am financially secure and have the freedom to do what i want.

I would enjoy that freedom and find something that sparks your interest. It’s okay if it takes a while to get that spark back.

Sounds great. Some people post their artwork on this forum. You could do the same!

It’s a marathon not a sprint. If your new to meds and sz it takes a whiles to settle into things for sure so how your feeling now may change with time and changes in your treatment. It’s not a bad plan but whatever you do keep busy. It helps and if you can do some regular exercise.

Having financial freedom is like great… not all days are good… it applies to all… maybe there is less energy… but still there will be some juice left in brain to do some creative work…

I have been on meds the last 4 years, so it could be the negative symptoms. But all this time i was under the impression that i just had a predisposition to psychosis not actual schizophrenia. Its also like the people around me are happy saying i kinda beat the system. But i feel left out from society.
At least i can fully go into hobbies and sports
