what work are we suited to
well I am a plasterer by trade
Janitoring?
Something not too stressful, I would have liked to have been a pharmacy technician.
if you suffer from negative symptoms, no job is good.
you would think schizophrenia gifts you witg some abilities…true?
abilities? such as?
I think it really depends on the person.
insight into the nature of th esoul…and caring
sure. but is this enough?
Something that involves routine, like a postman.
Mechanic work is not stressful.
Probably housekeeping or being a janitor.
Out of all the jobs mentioned, I rather be a mechanic or a janitor. But I really want to be a self-employed programmer.
Um…a fortune teller or psychic?
Sometimes I wish I had stayed at Oklahoma State University and majored in wildlife ecology. Then I could just putter around some game reserve or national park and keep tabs on an ecosystem.
Something low stress that doesn’t involve a lot of interaction with employees or clients. Like delivering newspapers. My cousin did well delivering pizza
I think most schizophrenics are most suited to not work. But if you are suited to work, it depends on what you think you can handle and what you’re relatively good at. People around me keep pushing me to do clerical work! 3 or 4 people already in fact!
you’re lucky if you can do anything with this i think, i think i am lucky i am able to do something now, i want to be a support worker but right now i am cleaning and buying/selling stuff.
I don’t feel limits on what I am capable of however I don’t enjoy being put on the spot or spending long periods of time with the same people. Because I want to enjoy my work I am limited.
