Accepting things you cant control

I would recommend focusing your energy on what you can control and by default what you can’t control becomes unimportant to you

Whats up man, Im interested in learning more about your experience living with your mental disorder.

What’s your everyday life look like and how has your disorder affected you?

I’ve met people with schizophrenia at parties and they had friends and everything. It’s not impossible for you, idk any advice but maybe just know that majority of people have their own oddities too

"How we live is so different from how we ought to live that he who studies what ought to be done rather than what is done will learn the way to his downfall rather than to his preservation" - from The Prince.

Your emotions are what cause you to worry about things outside your scope of control. You logically understand nothing can be done, but your emotions cause you to worry anyway.

That said, you need to control your emotions in order to let go. Meditation really helps with this since it teaches you that feelings are temporary and helps you focus on the self. Building self confidence also helps greatly because once you love yourself you have significantly less to worry about.

This video helped me a lot with accepting what I can't control. I know it's more about how to deal with anxiety but for me the anxiety started with me not being able to control certain aspects in life. Hope it helps.

" I have a mental illnes schizophrenia"

the fact you can say this/write this is a big step. i lost my sister to that disease (led to her suicide) and she was never able to allow herself to acknowledge her diagnosis. even when on meds, she would say "i'm just taking the meds to make mom happy". I also saw the denial in another family member who was also afflicted with the same illness. so my data set is small (2) but you seem different. this is good.

so an answer is: you can control taking your meds, so take them. even if it stunts some of your artistic flow, look for other outlets for your creativity and joy.

good luck on your path.

I broke my flesh light yesterday :(. I was hate fucking it with the VP Debate on in the background and I broke a hole right through the back of it. My dick was so fucking hard I had the best climax ever but at the cost of my toys structural integrity.

Sometimes there are some things you just can’t control bro.
