I am a person who suffers from severe schizophrenia.
I have no capacity to earn money.
I will apply for disability.
My intrusive thoughts torment me but I am sort of used to it, you know.
I am used to this mental suffering.
All the time stupid scenarios run in my head, that I am going to be a physician( an idea that I hate),
that I am going to marry a woman( an idea I also hate).
And it causes me suffering.
It seems that someone is purposefully planting hostile ideas in my head to make me suffer.
My choice is not to take medication, because I am rather fragile even without medication
and can’t tolerate the severe deleterious side effects of antipsychotics.
I hope that my request gets approved, and if it doesn’t get approved on account of me not wanting
to take antipsychotics, I will give up on the disability benefits for a while and reapply after half a year.

We do not have disability in Nepal…!!! Poor me…!!!
I think getting disability is great. But sorry to hear you are unmedicated. As long as you’re not on meds, the intrusive thoughts, etc, are gonna be worse. Have you tried Vraylar? That’s what I take, and it works pretty well, given enough time.

Good luck, but you will not get it without being followed by a pdoc.

It’s a good idea but you won’t get disability for SZ if you are not on meds.
