talk to ppl, i find a good conversation to b uplifting (when u can find one). schizophrenics,like me, get kinda lost our thoughts and it makes problems seem bigger than they are. good advice is sometimes found in unexpected places. also, keeping my mind busy helps me. playing games or reading keeps my mind from wandering places i dont want it to go.

find yourself a med that works for you. try and get a good psychiatrist and therapist. don’t be too hard on yourself if you don’t improve right away.

Good support both professional and personal. The right meds and patience when it comes to finding them. And getting out and trying things like volunteering so you can distract yourself from your problems.

I’ve had sz for 8 years. There is no secret cure or remedy. Do things that normal do to be happy. Cleaning, working, exercise, listen to music that makes you happy, watch films that make you happy and inspire you. Cooking (my new hobby) sunbathe in the summer, go for walks in the winter ( I love the fresh air right now ). Take your meds everyday, get theanine. All this comes in time, you’ve also got to make treatment your whole life. You can’t just dabble or think it’s going to get better.
