I like a quick convo. here and there but I don’t try to make friends on the outside because I can’t let people know I live in a group home.
I had a friend with social phobia/anxiety, he’s taking meds for it. He doesn’t get panic attacks when around crowds anymore.
I was definitively much more social before my SZ. I hanged out with 25 friends and a gf, bars, shisha, restaurents, clubs, etc
Since my diagnosis, I lost all of them including my gf. I still text 2 of my friends once a week.
I can’t work either. I just have my family.
