I currently work nights unloading trucks and stocking shelves at a grocery store. I dont know how much longer I can keep my illness from my coworkers, who are by the way mostly pretty chill people.
Im not worried about losing the job or anything, but I do worry about what people think of me, so I try to hide as much about my life as possible from everyone I can.
I know some of you must be pros at this by now, what techniques have you learned to front a normal existence for yourself?
Thats the thing though, I do that. I dont even give clues as to being unwell (they don’t know I live with my parents etc.) its just that Im sure my behavior and demeanor gives it away somehow
Yes they talk about their lives like their relationships and personal stuff, not so much issues I guess. Thing is life basically is my illness right now, I just work, eat, sleep, mess about with music, hear voices and act paranoid lol
