I don’t think there’s really a purpose to life.

I mean, pretty much no matter what you do,

In a couple generations after your death you’ll be nothing.

Not even a memory.

So, have the best time you can.

Enjoy YOUR life.

Enjoy those around you.

Make the most of it,

Because we’ll all be rain water and trees pretty soon.

That’ a hoax.

But you can’t entirely blame a sluggish metabolism for weight gain, says Dr. Lee. ā€œThe reality is that metabolism often plays a minor role,ā€ he says. ā€œThe greatest factors as you age are often poor diet and inactivity.ā€

Yeah I found this
Antipsychotic-associated weight gain: management strategies and impact on treatment adherence - PMC.

If you don’t mind to share, are you man/woman age, weight and height?

I maybe look like a jerk, but I’m really trying to help you not go all you can eat on January.

I’m a man. 6 feet tall, 234lbs.

I feel similarly. I don’t really feel pressure anymore. I do feel like a giant waste of potential when I dwell on stuff like that.

For me, I feel my existence is inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. I have no real purpose. I just try to appreciate the little things in life. Nothing really ever happens in my life anymore. Just another day everyday pretty much. It’s not as gloomy as it sounds. I mean it can be boring, I just don’t sit around and think of those things all day, otherwise it might begin to feel depressing. Honestly, I think this all has to do with my complete lack of motivation. Before the onset of the illness, I felt I had dreams and goals. Over time, they faded into just dreams, now they seem like distant thoughts of a person that died or no longer exists.

I still sometimes like 5o think about things Inwould like to do, I just don’t make an effort not because I wouldn’t like to do them, but just because I have to will myself to accomplish even ordinary things like waking up early, going to groups, sleeping early, showering, shaving… stuff like that I have to pretty much force myself to do. Otherwise I’d slowly regress into a caveman.

So feeling I have a purpose has just become a difficult concept for me to grasp. I guess I just want to be a decent person. So when people say, ā€œOh person A might have schizophrenia, oh noā€¦ā€, ā€œOh but that Schizophrenisaurus, he has schizophrenia and he’s okay, a little off maybe, but he’s okay, it can’t be that bad.ā€

You are a big dude. 1200 isn’t healthy.
Maybe try eating 150 grams of protein a day, good fats and working out.
My sweet spot is one meal a day, about 2k calories. I tend to gain weight.

My delusions constantly twist my sense of purpose in life.

It really ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  with me still.

The flip side is then I have no purpose but to live with this paradox to the end.

I think trying to have a peaceful life, make art and things that are beautiful and spending time with my dogs and spouse is my purpose. This sounds simple but is so hard with symptoms.
