Don’t lose hope, try some of these: music, walking, videogames, comics/mangas, drawing. :slight_smile:

I feel like I do nothing all day too, even music gets boring onced you’ve heard the same stuff for a few days, videogames can get boring after awhile too and TV is lame. Basically everything sucks with schizophrenia

I know how you feel. TV used to be a good distraction where I could lose myself in a show or movie. Now it’s hard to concentrate. Same with reading and other activities.

I do walking but nothing more. I dont have social anxiety. I have another illness, more devasting. I can not understand what other people say, i can not concéntrate, i can do nothing. No reading no tv. Am i the only one with these symptons? All people here understand what people is talking on tv?

I suggest you dream up something during the day . Write positive thoughts on a paper . Repeat affirmations . Dream something positive . Think about what’s good in life

Hey there. From 1992-93 I couldn’t comprehend a lot of language either. Here is what I did to help myself:

I started with children’s books and forced myself to read. Just very basic books for 12yo readers. I read Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, A Wrinkle in Time, and others. Also I read a lot of folklore and stuff with large print.

The thing is to persist and not give up. What is a book you still have from your childhood that you can reread?

I’m only saying what I did for myself. Good luck.

Also: if you can read to message us, then why not to read a book?
