I recently lost nearly everyone in my life

The lessons learned were valuable

I lost everyone though
Friends and all siblings. All that’s left is my father and I don’t trust even him. These people will not talk to me, I’ve apologized and tried to explain that I was in a state of delusion, but they don’t care.

I need a job, I’m 23, I should be working. I need to fix my life up. I’m ashamed and my self esteem is at a new low. How do you get the courage up to get out there? I’m basically broken. GD.

I suggest you create a support team for yourself.

Start small. Often it’s about baby steps. Get function up and running. Concentrate on getting better then move from there. It’s a journey but most around here have had similar experiences and moved forward with living.

I lost many ppl in my life because of my schizophrenia but I’ve learned that ppl that don’t want to be on my life when I’m low they don’t deserve to be in my life when I’m high! Family or friends doesn’t matter. In time you will find ppl that accept you for who you are and for what you have to give. Work hard at becoming better, you will fail many times and that’s okay just get back up and keep pushing forward!

You’ll find courage peppered throughout the forum. If you’re having trouble drawing strength, just be a spectator for awhile. See what others are doing. Each individual issue takes resolve and some moxie. Drugs are a big struggle for me, I read about other’s experience and sometimes (not always) I’m able to make the right decision.

I’m sinking guys

Everything will be fine, if you can make it thru, you’re really tough, eventually you’ll find the right support team :grin:

You’re young. I am 37 and not working, but I don’t feel horrible, just bad. You can still change.

Who absolutely wants me to make a call?

Who is not getting any personal mail, which they want?

Wash your hair, Dude!

Did they die?if not try to reconnect with them it’s always good to have people in your life

All I can tell you is that life is too short to be spent with people who don’t value or treasure you. Improve yourself and move on with your life. Find new people to spend time with.
