I know how you feel. I donāt get any enjoyment out of anything. I have no purpose and am merely existing. Still scared of death but donāt like this feeling. I donāt know how Iām going to get through the rest of my life like this.

I wish I was in a āniceā psychiatric hospital too. The local hospital
wonāt help me. Everyoneās into ārecoveryā and Iām getting worse. Itās
like Iām bad if I donāt recover.

Iāve never gone to any local psychiatric hospital, I wish were a nice one too, and I get worse in time too, I read here that a lot of people have partner and jobs and I feel like never in life I will be in that situationā¦

I donāt have a partner or a job either. Being proud of myself because I had a shower doesnāt do it for me. Iāve attempted suicide twice by trying to overdose and if I try it again Iām sure the hospital would just dump me out on the street. I canāt make conversation well because I feel disconnected from my environment and canāt make observations. My worker says I need time to open up but thereās nothing there anymore to open to. She says I have to try but I do. Iām so desperate and I donāt see any light at the end of the tunnel.

Hey spooky. Iāve recently lost interest in music and movies. If like me, youāre doing nothing most of the time you can get bored with the few things you have.
Try to find something new. You could listen to audiobooks. I do that. Listening to audiobooks might give you more ideas about stuff youād like to do as well.

My worker is someone who helps people with mental illness survive out of
hospital. I am also having cognitive problems. For a number of months I
couldnāt even watch television it was so irritating. Now, I can watch it
but I canāt follow a storyline! Reading has also become difficult for me.
I think Iām going to go beserk. Living in group home right now but having
a hard time. Even grocery shopping is difficult. The group home is only
for 2 years and then I have to find my own place. My workers donāt
understand and I musnāt say that Iām having trouble with cognition or
anything otherswise Iām being negative. I would like to start a revolution
in the way people with schizophrenia are treated but Iām unsure where to
start.
Donāt you have at the moment any familiar that could support you ? By the way what is your age if you donāt mind me asking.
I hope things get better for you!
@lioness
There are people who support me but no one that I can find personally that
understands or can make me feel better by hanging around them. My mother
has dementia and sheās all I have in terms of family. Everyone seems to be
participating in life besides me. I am 44 and have had schizophrenia since
I was 29.

I undestand you, I just feel in a good way with my parents or grandfathers, I donāt know how will be my future, I have this severe cognitive symptoms since I was 16 and Iām 21 now and it donāt get better in time, I think it get worseā¦ I have read about progresive declines, and that early starts have poor prognosisā¦ Soā¦ I hope luck will be in our ways.

also, when iām bored, I usually watch people play video games on youtube. boredom is like a season. itās usually just a matter of finding an activity that is somewhat new, but somewhat relative to what you like
