My story of hope
Hello! I am a 39 year old woman who has been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder (twice - the first time I didn’t think I had it and went off my meds and ended back up in psych ward).
I want to share my story of hope for others.
6 months ago I was living homeless (I abandoned my apartment because I thought they were going to get me) and was living homeless in my car. Out of money and cut off all contact with family who I thought were out to get me too.
I ended up in the psych ward.
I have been on an anti psych injection now since Jan and have achieved the following:
- living with my mom (have housing)
- seeing my daughter 50/50 again
- gainful employment as an admin assistant
- taking my medication as prescribed
- no drugs (same as before)
- getting my finances in order
I just wanted to share this with others to let you know there is hope even when it feels like there is none.
If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask!
