Don't think I can pull off work much longer

I’m sza, have paranoia, severe anxiety, and just found out today I may be taking over as director this fall.

They sure do hate sz’s at my job.

I identify with some of what youre saying. I show up for work and I do feel my colleagues aren’t the nicest I have met. I have worked in previous jobs though and never had this problem, unless it was a major company.

I feel the same … I live with my family and I feel they’d feel ashamed if I went on disability and not worked. It pushes me to work but I can’t hold down jobs. At what point do I call this a day.

If you are driving a car, eating at a fancy restaurant, living in a safe part of town, or having a busy day learn to appreciate it. Most people living off the government can’t do those things.

My bosses have known from day 1 that I have paranoid schizophrenia. Either they totally accept me or they all deserve Oscars. I don’t get treated as I would like to be but for different reasons. My boss laughs at everyone but he’s close to my co worker. The rest of my crew treat me as well as can be expected. The office workers changed (or I changed) now some of them disrespect me but there’s still some nice respectful ones. It’s hard to tell if someone is laughing at me. Many times I have been so positive that small groups are laughing at me only to be proved wrong again and again. It’s almost better to think that everybody is laughing at me than to not know for sure.

I tend to imagine massive hate and hostility coming from everyone and everywhere all the time, or, I used to, so, this could certainly be the case with you as well.

Yeah that is a problem I have. Combined with reference delusions it’s a fun time.

Can you live off of disability? That one is kinda important.

Nobody would call me “negative” today. I’m a regular ray of sunshine everywhere I go and to everyone I meet. Now! Now that I’m no longer plagued with extremely severe depression that was turbo fueled by a severe case of paranoia where I perceived the whole entire world to be seething with extreme hatred for my guts and wasted no efforts to show me just how much they hated me every moment of my existence!

But, I’m very delighted to report that this is all over as a result of the meds: Risperdal, Geodon, Seroquel, Celexa and a whole lot of excellent coping skills. Life is now so sweet!
