Been working constantly. 10 - 14 hour days most days and the weird looks that pile up through out the day are starting to get to me. Need a break and a normal face.

Seven days a week? You do need a break if that’s the case. my stepmom works long days.

I’ll take one day a week off or only work a few hours. I took Monday off earlier this week

That’s a lot to work. I always wonder how people manage to do work for long hours without an “upper”, I used to work a lot but only with the help of modafinil. As soon as I stopped using that, I never managed to be confident during the two workplaces I joined after last leaving the hospital.
You’ve definitely got some kinds of drive that’s very admirable imo. Whether someone channels their intrinsic energy into work or hobbies - I always admire it if they’re afflicted with schizophrenia.
Hoping you get some downtime and plenty of rest though

Thanks man. I don’t really have any other option. It’d be a lot harder if I had to deal with more people.

I see, when I wasn’t on disability I always felt on edge. Sorry that it’s the only way for you. I hope the workload alleviates for you

Things will chill out once I actually have my own place. Rent is around 900 and I already get 8 from SSDI. Right now I’m just saving up for the security deposit and the couple hundred dollar difference between disability and rent.

I have none of this. It’s like the brain is missing the drivers
