Difficulties in Living with Schizophrenia

It’s difficult to find your path when it comes to living with schizophrenia. You are bound by these limits which do not allow you to easily push past them and live a normal and fulfilling life.

Just doing normal things – waking up at a normal time, going to work, exercising – it’s a massive challenge when having schizophrenia.

Each day, I am trying to catch up with the others. To be a part of society and contribute. But, the more I try the more I understand that I am different and it’s not the same for me. I require more solitude and working on other things. I can not participate in the same race as the others. They don’t experience the world in the same way as me. I’m on a different journey to them. Yet, we sometimes meet at a crossroads and reflect.

So, that’s what I’m trying to figure out. How can I accept my situation and do something good? To understand the resources and fortune that I have and present in my own way.

I don’t know all the answers, but I’m committed to finding out.
