I don't know what it's like to have schizoaffective disorder. I do have classic bipolar disorder with psychotic features. It makes working nearly impossible at times, to be honest, I haven't worked since August. I'm pretty prideful, and not working and not having my own home because of it really upsets me. Makes me feel like a child who can't even take care of a dog.
Remembering meds is really important and maybe your parents can help you a bit with that struggle. Then, just take it step by step. If you keep working at it, there's a high possibility you'll be able to get a home and support yourself, again. Every now and then, a "setback" is an opportunity to improve upon ourselves and become the person we believe possible, or even better. This time, you could use it to master being in charge of your life, where you illness will have little effect. Once you achieve that, the world is yours to concur.

This is your first post here, so welcome to PC. Glad you found us
