Of course not, I am already a burden to my family, why would I get another one?

I don’t want to get married. It’s for some people just not for me.

After my recent thread, marriage is not a viable option for male schizophrenics.

kinda yes kinda no. one thing i don’t want is a wedding. maybe justice of the peace ceremony or something. i don’t have any friends left to be groom’smen. something i’ve thought about. i would have to make 4 or 5 good friends just for the wedding haha.

Once my treatment regimen fully stabilizes me, and I am a taxpayer, I’mma start socializing and dating.

No. I’m definitely “over the hill”.

I would love to marry ---- issue is I have issues and before I feel like I can provide for a wife n children i have to take care of myself …

Never.

I feel like there is pressure not to relapse and become totally ill then, med resistant.

:confounded: :dizzy_face: :exploding_head:

and pressure and me don’t mix well

because that makes me psychotic

(too much pressure I mean)

I am not married but I believe it is definitely possible for male schizophrenics to get married. I would say your chances are better than someone who is autistic.

No wife no kids.

No dude, I just made a recent thread and I was stunned at the factual results. Male schizophrenics are prone to unemployment and will more likely act violently when in a state of psychosis. There is no way a normal woman would prefer a man with these two traits.

You underestimate the lack of social skills and that some autistic individuals are also prone to aggression. Anti-psychotics are sometimes used to treat autistic people.

there are men with sz on this site happily married to women without sz I think

I have no experience with autistic individuals so I’ll take your word for it. As for the medication side, I don’t have a clue what kind of prescription drugs are given to people with autism.

Yeah, that may be but those married men with schizophrenia probably represent 10% of all male schizophrenics.

You can be part of that 10%. You work.

That may be but if a normal woman experiences me in a psychotic state and if I lose my job somehow, you can put me back with that 90%.

Well tons of normal people get divorced too. It really isn’t all that different between us.
