How to deal with schizophrenia and loss of things, functions, hobbies, friends, etc

I have lost so many things during the last four years of worsening of my illness. Ability to work, friends, hobbies etc.

On one hand I have to accept the losses without bitterness, and on the other slowly try to regain not the same things I have lost, but perhaps other things and abilities I haven’t had my eye on before.

I can be wrong, but I’m feeling I’m slowly on the mend. My bladder is functioning again, and I feel at ease.

I mean: at the bottom of the well, the only way out is up.

I too have had a great reduction in function the laat several years. Its just about finding what you can do i think and focusing on that

Sorry to hear, but i guess its typical for SZ, and yes, i won’t cry for the things i have lost but try to adjust, accept and search for new opportunities given the circumstances.
