If not disorganized, simple sounds good for me to. All negative and cognitive symptoms and some short and less significant positive. This type really exists.
I have the disorganized derailment symptom to the extreme. I canāt speak freely in conversation, only responsively.
The difference between me and you is that I had a very well defined collapse. I was completley batshit insane, the only thing which stopped it was medication.
After my descent into madness for several months I struggled from profound negative symptoms, basically everything on the list.
It was hell.
I also have a big family history of sz, like tremendous. I could try and say I want a different diagnosis but sense points to me being schizophrenic, 2 years of struggle and prominent symptoms.
I canāt begin to understand how some (like you) want to be schizophrenic. This diagnosis is not flippant, schizophrenics have profound, serious disability in many cases.

Disorganized for me itās to have problems making plans, sequences of actions. Inability to choose correctly, thinking a thing and the opposite in one minute, lose things, ambivalenceā¦ Etc etcā¦
Itās so difficult to notice it in a first moment.
Do you have symptoms like word salad, derailment, thought blocking, etc?
Just antidepressants for depressionā¦
Yesā¦ Here there are economic helps, associations, day hospitals, and in some jobs donāt mind contract people with dissabilities because the governament remmunerates the company.

Do you reffer to the diagnosis? Because the illness I already have it!

From what you have said I believe you. But you have a mild case, do you have any relatives with mental illness living or dead?
I think I have a profound disability, just that it isnāt recognized. Antidepressants do nothing for me just leave me suicide thoughts, all everything else remains.

Some depression episodes have been too. Soā¦ there are a lot
