9. Can Patients with Schizophrenia Live Normal Lives?
It’s entirely possible to hold a job, get married, and raise children while dealing with paranoid schizophrenia. The most important thing you can do is build a strong support network: pursue a diagnosis if you do not yet have one, and be open and honest with therapists, doctors, family, and potential partners.
There may be times when you feel like you are unable to complete routine daily tasks like caring for yourself, making food, or interacting with others due to your condition. Making a plan, preferably with your doctors and your family onboard, before these more severe episodes hit is the best way to manage your life around your symptoms.
