i’ve hit the bottom since the holiday yesterday was mostly a bummer.
i just don’t feel good about my life.
sorry to b_____ here about my life so much but here i go again.
hugs, judy
What’s getting you down? Maybe I could cheer you up with one of my lame jokes!
that’s sweet of you patrick. i just feel so overwhelmed with problems on my shoulders with not enough help.
even my own life and health need special attention because of sz and instead of support i get the opposite.
i keep telling myself that it’ll get better and i try to make it so but the improvement is so so slow.

I understand. Good days and bad days with this affliction. When you’re down, it feels like you’ll never snap out of it. But you always do.
You’ve always had such a sunny disposition on this forum. Things will pick up for you. That light in your heart will break through the darkness at some point. Just hang in there till it happens again!

Hi Judy, Everybody bit*ches, don’t worry about it. Yeah, I wish I could help too.
How about I steal a lame joke from @Patrick and make it cool, lol. Would that cheer you up?
But seriously, I think you’re a good person and you deserve happiness. Hopefully your bad feelings about your life will pass. I feel the same way as you do sometimes. It doesn’t bother me for too long. I try not to dwell on those thoughts. Your feelings are real but perspective plays a part in it too. How your life seems depends on how you look at it. Sometimes it looks good sometimes it looks bad. Considering that we have to deal with schizophrenia, just getting out of bed in the morning is a major accomplishment.
Very often people get down around holidays especially when interacting with family and friends. It is magnified with sz so please don’t be hard on yourself. You have every right to complain sometimes
because sz is so unfair. It’s difficult, but if you can try to focus on things you like, even create small goals to see you through this rough time.
