…still able to function reasonably well.
I figure many schizophrenics are on the street or in Hospitals.

Unfortunately I think you’re right.
Although to be fair, Google says
Studies have indicated that 25% of those having schizophrenia recover completely, 50% are improved over a 10-year period, and 25% do not improve over time.
Positive thought for the day that puts things into perspective.
Yes @PatrickT no doubt, the schizophrenics here do relatively well I believe compared to the general
schizophrenic population.
However, I am not able to function at all.
That’s 75% of us improve.
It’s not true that the vast majority of schizophrenics are in hospitals or on the streets. Most of us are doing just fine. Especially with today’s meds.
The majority is not in hospitals or on the streets, they are just surviving with their parents or in a supportive housing program.
