Eighteen i lost a leg in a motorcylce accident. My life was pretty normal up until adolecence. Isolated, anti-social, lonleiness. After the accident pychosis kicked in and ive had episodes of manic deppression, and plain phycosis ever since then. After the vitality of youth started wearing off, i had to learn how to take life. I had to teach myself how to take life or i wouldn t survive. Nobody really understands, will, some people do, they
just dont have the patience. I gone from one extreme to the other, but up until now the extreme had been, isolated, disconnected, anti social, behaviour. Shallow connections at most. The most successfull times in my life were when i geared every nerve in my body to work and focus on vision. I never really got to far, but at least i was productive everyday, no matter of insignificant what i did was. Never had peace working. Never. Miserable. At the end and sometimes in the middle and the beginning there were suicide attempts. At the last years I probably attempted suicide at least once a month, but i kept pushin myself to work, thats the only thing i ever felt good about since i couldnt make connections with people, was being able to focus on work. Nowthe past few years i found a way to makeconnections with people, and its been the best years of my life. I just have to stay at that extreme and disregard work or i lose it, and it sucks. I always need some outside source to pull me back, usually more then a few, and afew times. My life is about people now. I love making conncections with people, meaningfull realtionships are what i live for. I spend my days being active in the world, feeling alive, and learning to love people the way jesus loves them. Money is a problem with my skimpy disability check. My life is defining god by he died so i could enjoy life, no matter how much of a fuck up i am, i can still love myself, people, and god, and do it all wit a clear concience. Any disagreements on this is real life for me as an individual as i described. Any advice on things i havnt tried, or could try to make things different. Thanks.

I find myself going places in the car and not wanting to get out of the car. I come back home and I don't want to get out of the car. I think it's the only time I spend reflecting. Chronic tiredness from Long Covid plus the immunosupressing meds for my Crohn's is slowing me down but everything just seems a massive effort. I am dealing with the paperwork following my father's death but it's not...

Wow, it's the middle of the week already!Today is our 11 year anniversary, so we're going out to a nice dinner. I'm losing a lot of sleep these days, hence a wonky schedule and uncomfortable feelings. But I know it will pass, eventually.I hope all of you have a peaceful day, and may good things come your way!
Did you mean to post this on the Asperger's board rather than the Schizophrenia board?
Have you been diagnosed with Asperger's or do you think you are Asperger's and that is the reason you are having difficulties?
I still don't quite understand what you advice you are asking for?
