Hello @Fractured @Queenie

I read your post with interest. You have been very concise and clear in writing about changes that you are experiencing.

This in itself is very positive for any further counselling, treatment.

If you are not already under medical care, please talk to a gp who you feel comfortable with and ask for a referral preferably to a psychiatrist who has experience with schizophrenia. That person can monitor your progress and medication ongoing.

@Queenie Has explained how she manages at the same time recognising when she can't.

My son has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. He trusts very few people and believes many are after him. He also believes that they have made me unwell.

I hope that you find help in writing on here as you are already helping others. Thank you both.

Hi. This is my 1st post. I just read your post and had to reply because this is exactly what happens to me at work. However I’m very ashamed of my schizophrenia and other disorders. I feel that I have to suck it up and get on with job. I know my boss is very understanding and has suggested an action plan and compared having schizophrenia to having asthma or diabetes. The voices have been getting more interruptive during work.
