Accurate statistics as I read somewhere that 80-90% of schizophrenics are single.

That doesn’t surprise me given my own personal experiences, but that stat does make me feel better knowing I’m not the only one in this boat.

So 80 % of the forum’s schizophrenics seems to be ā€˜single’ or ā€˜single, divorced’, so basically single. I do not know if this is surprising or not, but it feels that it is correct and schizophrenia is a lonely illness, many people are alone as I am. Thanks for participating in this poll.

I suspect this to be a pretty accurate poll of what the general crosssection of our community. It was an interesting and worthwhile little poll @mjseu !

I have decided to keep my marital status private on this forum

Don’t feel people need to know if I’m single or not.

It’s not like this is a dating site so I feel safe that people assume that we don’t get romantic here

Since it’s a recovery orientated mental health site.

I don’t need anyone to know therefore if I’m single.

I’m 44 and single. I just haven’t found the right person yet. I dated a few women over the years but a couple of them tried to trap me in a relationship. 2 of them wanted kids and I didn’t. I don’t mind being single. Relationships just complicate life. I’m a simple person and like to keep it that way. I don’t think I’m gods gift to women but people can’t figure out why I’m single. It drives my mom nuts because all of her friends say I’m good looking. My neighbor flirts up a storm with me all the time. She’s a hot redhead. She likes to get touchy feely. She’s married and the last thing I want to deal with is a jealous husband.

Married, hopefully for a long time… Walmart is taking a while to fill my bipolar meds and it’s making it hard on both of us… And my borderline personality disorder don’t help
