RE: Do You Even Work?

in Reflections3 months ago

Both me and my mother are disabled. We both have schizophrenia.I think that saying that I am super introvert sounds nicer. So I only occasionally sell some painting and write on Hive.

What I find interesting is that while both me and my mother have the same illness it shows itself in a different ways. I don't have friends, most of the time interacting with people is very tiring for me. at times get nervous when I speak on the phone, leave home only if it is necessary. All this I am more or less accustomed to. What really bothers me is that my memory is getting worse. Without looking at a photos I don't even remember how my dad or grandparents looked. At times I forget how to write some letters...this is annoying and scary that it will get even worse in the future.

My mother one time thought that she brought head in backpack. I believe she told me that when I was small she told me to put sugar(?) on the carpet. It had something to do with sins of humanity I think... So it seems that at the worst my mother's ilness is worse than mine. For me it is more consistent. No such extremes. I just don't have friends and don't want to leave home. But memory thing is really concerning me.
