Im schizophrenic, and I feel like Im getting unstable ( Im not in any immediate danger). Im seeing my doctor on Tuesday and weighing my options. I have problems—some real and probably some imagined.
I would consider myself usually stable and functioning but im aware things can get really bad.
I had some really fucking bad phases in the past.
I wish I could just tough it out, but I can see how my mental state is slowly weakening, so I feel like I need to reach out.
I hope this type of thread is allowed here
EDIT : Thanks for all the input and answers
Hope you’re doing okay, my cousin lives with schizophrenia and he has had some bad stuff go down in the past because. It’s good you’re aware your symptoms might be worsening/having an “episode”.
I’ve had auditory hallucinations in the past, but I think those were more related to trauma and being in an adjacent situation. I acted out on them and when everyone else was like “wtf are you talking about, nobody was shouting”, so I hope I can relate in some way.
If you want a bit of a laugh I saw this on xhs: What is the strongest military US, China, Russia? (many chinese netizens) Clearly South Korea they dared to build a country on top of a US military base
Anything funny you have seen recently?
whats the most fun thing youve ever done
I would probably say playing Rugby when I was younger- just a really fun sport to me.
Recently ? I played a pc game called Balatro its a poker inspired roguelike pretty fun
I’m sorry that’s happening. The beginning of this year hasn’t been great for many people lol. How’s life? Got any 2025 resolutions?
Get my shit together. Keep working out. I want to try and get into a relationship again. Also I want to reach a decent level at cooking.
What’s your current level of cooking like? I bloody love it for getting out of my head (anxiety here, nothing quite as a severe as what you’re experiencing…).
Always happy to discuss food. Full disclosure I’m vegetarian and am cursed when it comes to baking potatoes, so I may not be a great person to get advice from.
Working out more is a big goal for me this year, too. At first it was just for my health and to look good for my upcoming wedding, but now it’s also because I’m worried about the fascists coming into office here in the US 😬. Not to bring up more anxiety-causing things lol.
Also feeling the cooking thing. I’ve been watching all these cooking and baking shows to calm me down and relax me between all the depressing news and stuff, which makes me want to try it. It’s just spending the time and energy to find recipes or cook them after coming home that’s annoying.
