Does anyone here know how I can lead a normal life? It has been nearly fifteen years. I have been watching the movie Awakenings because that is how I feel. Once in a while, I will experience an "awakening" and feel like I am coming around. But then it will just go away. I have tried three different antipsychotics over the years. They kept me stable, but I was/am still dysfunctional, i.e. I pretty much never read because I cannot retain what I read. If I want to retain something, I have to repeat it in my mind until I have fully committed it to memory. Maybe this is because I want to get a job as a grocery store cashier. But I have tried that before and it did not work out - twice. The funny thing is, I think I am qualified to work as a grocery store cashier. However, maybe I am too stupid to work as a cashier in a grocery store. It's a demanding and stressful job, I might add. I just want to be normal.
