I’m very lucky

I’m very lucky to have my partner. He’s still with me even after my psychotic episode. But I’m really feeling like I don’t deserve him and he deserves better.

It is almost axiomatic that schizophrenics have self esteem issues.

The guy is smart. But obviously not that smart when it comes to relationships.

Well , if I’m honest , I spent the first 7 years not wanting a relationship because of sz. Then I came round to the idea when I thought I got better. When i thought There was a possibility I didn’t have anything. And then bam I have another psychosis.

If I still had my worthy gf I wouldn’t say that, I would try to stay with her. My last gf wasn’t really worthy, she left me after I failed at maintaining jobs, I guess all she wanted was money.

Some women will drop you like a hot potato if you mention the phrase “mental illness”. But I think being nice and genuine goes far too. Also if someone have had problems of their own, it’s easier to accept someone else who have experienced similar things.
