Is your family delusional about you? Do they think you’re just lazy? And just need to get married to someone good? I don’t think I’m marriage material and I’m pretty ashamed of myself. I don’t understand.

My mom thought I was faking it right up until the point where the meds started making me better. Then she reevaluated her position.

Maybe it’s not that they’re in denial but that they don’t understand. I feel like no one understands me, my pdoc comes close
Some family members really don’t understand what it means to have schizophrenia, they may even think you are making it up. It’s important a doctor explains to them what you are going through because family support is very important. I also don’t think will be able to marry, too much pressure and responsibilities. Good luck
My mother is a former doctor and she likes to say “I know you’ll be free of these problems soon.” or “You know, it’s hard for me to believe you’re schizophrenic” even after all the horrible stories I’ve told her…
