My piano has been a goal for a long time now (16 years). I already wrote and published my book: The Autobiography of a Schizophrenic Bipolar Woman. It’s on Amazon.

Maybe ask your doctor if its PTSD;
People with PTSD may also experience physical symptoms, such as increased blood pressure and heart rate, fatigue, muscle tension, nausea, joint pain, headaches, back pain or other types of pain.
Hope you feel better.

Thanks, but my pdoc said, that those are psychosomatics… Idk if many people here have or even know what are the somatics lol? 
I just dont understand why its only me, who manifests its mental pain physically… I ignore what is to suffer only mentally, i am a ball of all kind of physical stuff…
Tbh, i even have a bit of narcolepsy every afternoon, i am tired of just sleeping… My cognitives suffered from too much sleeping, plus its bad for the body… But make move a paranoid sz with negatives, its still hell…
Anyway, am sad, that it seems, that on my dads side there are many mi people, its not promising 
… One of my symptoms is the despair about my future, plus the meds dont help much, i want a better life already one day after that i lived 20 years with no life…
Yeah, sounds like kind of a mystery.
The more you do nothing, the less you can do.
Maybe the szs with mostly negatives have those too… 
and apparently, its rare…
Maybe i just have some worse mi than the sz, with this kind of neurotic somatization…
I don’t know. One of the best things I have done is starting to walk every day. I think I would guess its kinda from feeling awful. Walking makes me feel a little better.

yes i am in pain everyday unless i drink.
it’s a conundrum.
I love walking. I used to do 3 hours walks (15 km) sometimes. Sometimes I would walk with my camera and photograph birds.

theres a world outside i would go out for a walk -eels
The attribution of somatization in schizophrenia patients: a naturalistic follow-up study - PubMed’%20attitudes%20toward%20schizophrenia%20patients.
It happens apparently… but to no one on the forum, i feel alone… 
My worry is that i had a very poor life since 20 years and now, that i am trying to get better, i have to go through so much pain mentally and physically, that i am close to give up often… yeah, its easy to say move more, when you have a ball of pain in your chest, which kills all your mood, or when your legs shake and you are close to pee on yourself by paranoia…
I should make some gigantic efforts now tbh… and i dont know if ill have the strengths… theres no treatment for the somatic disorders, they advise just more activity and positive thinking…
Maybe i have this as well, cause i was isolated for 20 years too, this would have ended up everyone i guess…
I want to live more than ever in fact… but i have to pay such enormous efforts, idk if this is in my power anymore 
“Soma” means body in fact…
No one else wasnt somatizing here? Strange…
No, sz/sza is NOT painful. Physical pain is not listed as one of the symptoms of sz/sza in the DSM 5. I’m sorry.
That symptom is part of your other diagnosis: conversion disorder or somatization disorder or whichever your pdoc says you have.

You always talk about the same thing. You are obsessed with “isolated 20 years” and somatics.
Why don’t you try focusing on doing things? Getting some exercise? Overcoming these hurdles that you put in front of yourself?
There’s no improvement without effort.

I am trying zombiemombie… am sorry if i am boring, i just still fall in the abyss, that i was watching for years…
Tbh, am changing , no matter what i can claim… i see more people, i even started to talk, i go outside sometimes…
Ok, theres hope yeap… i just still fall quite roughly…
My current pdoc said, that efforts cant help a sz, but i have other symptoms than sz i guess, so yeah, i should continue trying…sorry again if smth… my mom is good, but she doesn’t believe in a well being for me, this is hard…
Take care
Its strange… Sz is not painful, really? Even not the paranoia? I talk about mental suffering too lol…
Ok, one pdoc was swearing to my mother, that i am not a sz, but maybe a severe bpd with conversion disorder, but still… The common element of all mi is the suffering… I used to swallow all kind of meds in order to stop the pain, my current pdoc says now, that this is psychological now…
For the rest, dont judge me severely pls… I decided to not go outside today, i put the washing machine and will try to distract 
I will continue hoping, that my pain will ease, i also should recover a bit more on my dementia tbh, no matter, that some brain cells died already… I really feel numb per moments…

It really doesn’t show. I’ve never seen you post about anything else, ever.
I was talking about physical pain.
