In what way is sz difficult for you

Having to keep things from my family as they don’t support me in my recovery process, they still think nothing is wrong and that I need to pray more to get better. Also paranoid thoughts and intrusive voices that demand a lot out of me are really difficult to deal with.

I cannot keep a job
People working with me regularly start to notice im different and after a while nobody wants to work with me. I end up trying to do everything alone and have a breakdown. At that point i leave before it happens.

Im the opposite. Family relations are great for me because my family is the only group i found that accepts me as i am. Excluding mental illnesses groups obviously

I agree with everybody else, and second that.

I think maintaining a relationship is hard too,
even if there is a break up or argument

I don’t want to be blamed as the whack job that caused it.

It’s not really these days, not so much as my diabetes and my heart condition.

I have sza and for many years, it was the mood part of my illness that affected me the most. Later on, it was the thought disorder, (schizo), part of my illness that affected me the most. And each for about equal lengths of time. Right now, I am mostly in remission although I still have ideas of reference, have occasional paranoid delusions (under stress), and hear voices on occasion.

The lack of motivation and interest in everything. Both make it hard to get involved and focus on things like jobs and school. Ima try and go back to school next spring to see if i can handle it but i cant do the jobs i use to do cause i cant hold the focus to maintain my working pace. On top of that i have little to no interest in everything new i try and everything i use to do. The most i do now is walk and sometimes run for 2 to 3 hours a day. Dont skate, dont work, just walk and internet surf. Sometimes i make a beat but i enter phases where i stop completely and pump them out non stop. Right now im in between

People lying about you, acting like you’re criminals, even though they’re usually victims of criminals. Constant lies by people who want to restrict your life. I think they deliberately cause it.

Unable to focus myself and motivate self and organize my thoughts to be successful.

Constantly being watched. I pretty much suck at life. The only thing I’m proud is being a mom.
