i went into the charity shop today and arranged to start on Friday, not all day but just as much as i can handle, i’ll see where it goes from there, hopefully it will set me up for some part time work in the future 
the guy said i’ll be on the till in maybe 2 weeks (which suits me) lol
Good going buddy! 
Did you tell them you have schizophrenia? Just curious…
i cant remember what i wrote on the application form but probably not lol,
but i was volunteering this morning in my other voluntary job and i saw my new volunteer coordinator and i havent told her either and the only reason i told my last one was because she guessed and asked me and i said yes but she didnt treat me any different, i think she just observed my behaviour and was happy with what she saw.
As long as you can handle it volunteer work can be a good thing to do rather than sitting around. Just remember that the other employees are likely to be normies and are unlikely to understand your illness. And also if what people are saying behind your back sounds fake it may be stress aggravating your symptoms. I had that problem when i was working.
I started in a charity shop last week. I think it is good. It builds up your confidence, and for me it makes me feel less guilty about having idle time. I think it is popular with mental health sufferers on disability.
Congrats daydreamer!
