I’m also going through exactly that, I was doing animations, Schizophrenia came and made me stop my work, but it didn’t stop me completely because lately I’ve been able to draw a little. I still haven’t improved enough from the Negative Symptoms, I went through several frustrations with several attempts at treatment, but I didn’t give up on my treatment, and I didn’t give up on seeking this improvement, there is still nothing guaranteed, we can improve at any time if we continue with patience and focus on improving

hmmm, you do it when you Have to.

Yes but some antipsychotic drugs make you worse than schizophrenia itself invega is the only drug which made me a little bit better for a while then it went down
you don’t seem very old, could be wrong.
just be happy you don’t gotta try out the right cocktail again,
gawd, that about killed me, couldn’t even drive my car
to get my daughter to her CF appointment,
my cousin had to drive us. It was a little under an hour
away.
Invega isn’t gonna give you your life back, you need inspiration, I guess, I don’t know.
It’s normal to mourn. But someday you will have to accept it as your life and do the best you can.
I wasn’t criticizing you or comparing you to me, I explained my situation to make you change your mindset, that nothing is guaranteed and that you can improve at any time, you just keep looking for the improvement that one day you can Win this disease
me too i wish it had never happened
Living with schizophrenia is so lonely. Not being able to share my terrible, horrible and sad life with a woman whom I like would be a curse on her. I too wish that schizophrenia never happened to me.
if you thought i criticized you or compared you, i apologize, that was not my intention as i clarified in the second answer i gave you in this topic
I was just finishing my education.
Prospects were looking up, but never materialised.
Now I am abandoned and lost
No turning back now
Will always remember the contempt for people like us that everyone has
I wish i wouldn’t have a disabilty either, but i accepted the fact. I tried to live with it but inside i get more and more depressed. The older i get the more dirt comes out of the wash. After all, my sz is purely environmental.
I too wish I never developed schizophrenia. I do remember feeling depressed about it for a couple years during the early years after diagnosis. Sometimes I feel like my life before schizophrenia was a dream that might not have really ever happened.
Anyway, hang in there, I’ve read the first 10 years of schizophrenia are the most difficult. Having gone past that I’d say it proved true for me at least. I mean it doesn’t exactly get easier, I feel I’m right where I’ve been in those 10 years as far as bettering my life or becoming a success. The way I sometimes think about it is that I’m have more experience with the illness now, like being a lvl 14 Schizophrenic multiclassed with a lvl 14 student and a lvl 5 musician.
