i used to work in the US many years ago.
but bcoz of sz i left the US and returned to india.
but i think i made a mistake.
i should not have left the US, i should have sought treatment there.
but i was not ready to accept that i had illness and decided to leave.
i wanna go back to the US again.
the standard of living in the US is high but i cant drive a car so thats a problem.
now getting into the US is so difficult, i have twice been denied a visitor’s visa.
What do u guys think?
Which part of India are you from?
It’s also pretty developed in some areas. Not too different?
I mean, quality of life for someone with sz will be not “fantastic” wherever you go surely?
America isn’t an easy life in my opinion. Even if it is a ridiculously highly developed economy. Struggle is everywhere, that even without sz as a factor.
You still have to put effort into claiming disability for example, have to put effort into chasing up insurance policies and the like for a good treatment plan and so on?
The grass is always greener. I love my country but I’m on social security and am forced to live with my parents so I can afford my bills. It’s really hard to be on your own with schizophrenia or any disability in the US.
I am from Bombay
Where are you from
I know life anywhere with sz is tough
Ya life is tough
As long as you have access to meds and a supporting environment (family, government, etc), the country shouldn’t matter.
Do you get disability in India?
If not, can your family support you?
No disability here
But parents are supportive
You would be welcome in the UK mate lol. We have a large friendly indian population, at least where i live.
And we got the NHS - so you get your meds for free lol 
UK. It is indeed. Tough it out with the help of your family I’d say.
If you had to leave for another country, try the UK. It seems our welfare system is a bit more welfare orientated.
However. Getting accepted into the UK may probably be harder than getting accepted into the US.
