People do a lot of things to help with their schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, including journaling. I believe taking medication and seeing a therapist are the most important strategies. But there are other things to do for self-care besides that. I know a lot of people swear by meditation. I swear by exercise for schizoaffective disorder, as I’ve written about previously. But something new has come into my life that helps with my schizoaffective disorder that I’d like to share with you. Well, it isn’t exactly new. It’s something I’ve been doing on and off since I was five. Recently I’ve decided to get serious about it. I’m talking about journaling with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
I keep a Journal.
I write down my thoughts, feelings, how much exercise I did for the day, etc…
Its a good way to keep track of your symptoms and progress.
I can never think of what to write. I’ve seen a few online journals and thought how do they manage to think of so much stuff.
I dont write a lot … just the basics
i tried journaling, it requires a great deal of concentration for me but I just can’t do it.
