I am wondering about a topic that probably affects all of us here.

Change.

I don't get how change happens, especially with a severe illness such as schizophrenia/schizoaffective which I have.

I feel like I do so many things just because of my diagnosis.

I know there are some things I will have to just accept as being part of my illness. But where do you draw the line? How do I start actually carving out a path for myself? It's hard because I don't think there are clear-cut answers.

Anyway, any feedback would be appreciated.

Like, I know the meds help, but I am sometimes believing that the meds are doing everything for me, when I know it's just a small part. So it messes with my autonomy at a certain level. I wish I was fully autonomous.

Hi WastingAsparagus. I am sorry you seem to be challenged by how to chart a course and go. It is not easy for any of us, no matter how few challenges we face. I am not good at simple answers so I will suggest a few videos that have given me clues what the next step for me will be. Hope that you find what gives your life meaning and can start adding activities that fulfill that need.

For me doing exercises or yoga help give me a focus that is not in my mind.
