Hi @JeffDog sometimes the schizoaffective forum is a little slow. Some people go to this one and the schizophrenia one. The schizophrenia one has a pretty active roll call usually. Feel free to check out both and see what works for you. Personally I go to both. My DX recently got changed from depression with psychotic features to schizoaffective disorder depressive type. Plus I have general anxiety disorder, ADHD and some other stuff. Hope you find some support here. HUGS Kit

I'm having a pretty good day actually. Just kind of bored at work but that's normal.

I ended up having pork chops, under-cooked rice-a-roni, and broccoli. It was pretty good, minus the rice.

Today is okay. I'm feeling self destructive though. There's a support group tonight (NAMI-led) that I am contemplating whether or not to go to. I've been the last two times. The first time I found it marginally helpful, last time I didn't find it very helpful. It doesn't seem like people are really going through the same things as me. Hallucinations and stuff. There's one other person there who has Schizoaffective but he doesn't say much. Sad that I can feel lonely even in a support group. But since I feel self destructive (not suicidal) I might just blow it off. I haven't decided yet. If my parents want to go to the family group then I will be more likely to go to the Connections group.

Hello all... it has been a long time since I have posted here... I used to get notifications on my phone and I think the Schizophrenia group was more active so I don't even know when is the last time I posted here. I have been having a rough time lately and have been even more sick than normal since about November, so I've been struggling. I tried really hard for a few months to come up with a way to work part time because I didn't want to go on disability, but I finally broke down and applied for disability yesterday. So that has been really difficult. I'm also worried about running out of finances before they approve my case, but I'm trying not to think too much about that. I've been having a really, really hard time being out in public, where even short, friendly interactions have been making me highly agitated to the point where I just get enraged. And today was pretty difficult with that, too. But anyway, I think I felt ok enough to check out the forums tonight and say hello to you all... I had to stay home from my son's concert at school, but I was able to watch it on livestream. I guess I was just feeling lonely and I thought maybe I might start posting or checking the forums occasionally again, as I haven't done that in a long time. Hope you are all well.

Covid 19 is getting really scary. I'm trying to manage my anxiety. But I think my anxiety is making my paranoia and perhaps delusions (not sure if they are true or not) worse. Anyone else having trouble because of Covid 19 (Coronavirus) fears?

I'm here in my new country and am doing well. I work online and have been receiving assignments. I have been here for a month settling into my new situation. I am working hard hoping to get as many assignments because the more I work, the more I earn. I was feeling rather tired initially. I have been exercising daily and am going to scale back because I don't need to exercise daily, just five times a week is fine with me. I am happy!! I am taking my medication daily because the shots were not available at the clinic I went. I am writing a journal about taking my medication daily so it is working so far. I feel great overall. I lost some weight. I feel good about myself for once. Nobody is bothering me here!! Yippee!! And, the new company staff love me and told me I'm a star employee- whatever that means since I only started about two weeks ago. After covid-19 situation improves, I will have to show up in person to work though. We shall see how that goes!! I am going to keep myself busy no matter what. I watched some homeless documentaries on youtube to remind myself how far I've come. I was homeless for awhile way back. Thus, I am ecstatic to be working again and doing a good job!! I have to remind myself no matter how hard it becomes that I need to take my medication!! I believe I will this time around. I have been through a lot. I am a positive thinker though. I realize if I put my mind to a task, I can accomplish it!! I have to sleep a lot though still after doing my assignments. But, this is better than not sleeping. I hope all of you continue to fight the good fight!! I will also. We are all comrades in this battle against mental illness. I have not given up and never will. I hope you all will do the same and keep fighting, keep smiling, and keep surviving!!

hi everyone.
i think that being shut in for so many years prepped me for this quarantine. But now I have to do my pdoc appt over the internet, that's gonna be weird. I'm not that good with ppl in person so I don't know if I will like the online appt or not. Maybe this is the right time to ask her if I am sza or sz , it seems to change with the weather. its like saying to someone is she crazy or just mildly crazy. warmest regards, Tams __________________ Tams https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Whgn_iE5uc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FOUqQt3Kg0 YOU LAUGH BECAUSE I AM DIFFERENT, I LAUGH BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL THE SAME Don't only practice your Art, But force your way through into its secrets, For it and Knowledge can Raise men to the Divine.
