Volition, what is it?

Partly, yes. They turn off the symptoms, but they’re not subtle. They turn off a LOT of your brain.

Have you thought about dating?

I stopped looking for a partner since I became psychotic. Nobody would want to date someone with my illness anyways.

That’s not the case man. I’ve confessed my illness to many women who have accepted it. I’ve even dated women who had it. There are solutions you have to be proactive and determined

By the way, I deal with constant voices that are totally virulent and oppressive. They’ve made my life hell. I mean they’ve ruined relationships. But I get back up and I get it back in the saddle!

Thanks!

I’m not ready for women atm. I want to start exercising and lose weight. That’s my main goal.

But having goals higher than that is important. You need to envision your future

My plan is to start exercising for at least three months. Then hopefully three months again after that. If I can only make it the first three months I’d be happy.

I mean definitely work out but I’m saying make goals beyond that then you want to reach so that the working out is not just working out but also a means by which you reach your goals. Greater goals like being with a woman for example. And if that’s not what you want then there are other things you can aim for like being a businessman or a tycoon.

Told my wife three weeks in I had SZ and that I was 7 years sober at the time. We’ve been married since 2000. Still sober, too.
