1. I feel like I'm every father's worst nightmare for their daughter to end up marrying. So I don't bother dating.
2. I'm on disability but could theoretically work for a living doing something extremely menial. So I feel shame because I'm not pulling my own weight. I just couldn't afford to both eat and buy meds at the same time if I worked. It would be either one or the other.
3. My family and friends always ask me if I took my meds last night.
4. It's difficult to have a full erection.
5. No matter what happens. No matter how good it gets I can't feel joy and no matter how bad it gets, I can't cry. I feel dull and devoid of emotion or vitality most of the time.
6. I'm afraid of having a psychotic episode and tempting a police officer to shoot me.
7. No matter how bad I think I have it, there is always someone in the world who is worse off. So I feel like I can't even complain about having a mental illness.
8. Sane people think I can just "snap out of it".
9. Not having health insurance is NOT an option I can afford to risk.
10. There's no cure. It's a life sentence.
Feel free to add anything you can think of to the list.
