I'd say a mixture of them all. But the two big ones that stand out to me are work (I'm currently on disability) and memory. It's definitely my goal to work someday though. It's also affected school (I'm in college) I've had to take various semesters off over the past several years due to episodes so it's been taking me much longer to complete my degree than it would most people, and I can only realistically go part time when I am stable.

My short term memory is terrible and I'm only 25, even my long term memory is messed up. I don't know if it's from the meds or repeated psychotic episodes or a combination but it's really frustrating when I try to think of fun times with my mom which I had a lot of (she passed away a few years ago) and I can't recall much of anything specific over the years, so I don't have many detailed memories, my life has been kind of a blur.
