Schizophrenia and dependability

Recently i found the littlest things matter . I am depened on my mom and she is taking advantage of it. I find by having schizophrenia i’m depended on the mental health system. And in that system the workers abuse me by always trying to win their part because they know i need them.

I get really irretated when others are not dependable enough or not straightforward enough. Violent thoughts go through my mind.What are you experience with dependability having schizophrenia?
I also think some people target me more with dependability becuase of my race!

Well, my answer to that is a quote from a recovering friend of mine who told me,
“If you’re going to be a door mat, you can expect to get stepped on.”
Having sz doesn’t mean you can’t speak up. If you are an enemy of yourself, maybe you won’t.

Is it possible to recover if you did become a doormat to someone?

I hate being dependant on people and the government with this illness its so scary cos u are not in charge.

Sure, anything is possible. I left college for a year because I let someone dominate me. When I returned, I was a different person to him. No more boss-slave relationship.
