For the past 10 years, I have been diagnosed as having chronic depression, chronic anxiety, and mild schizophrenia. I am now 19 and on several different strong medications. They more or less keep me tranquilized and I just stay in my room all day. I never graduated school, and I just quit my job of 2 1/2 years. Right now I feel like I am so dependent on everyone that I lost myself somewhere. My mom and my family both think that I need to get anyway and find who I am and achieve independence. Thats why we decided that I should move down to Florida with my aunt and uncle (whom I'm also very close with) and kind'of build my life back up again. Return to school, get a part-time job, and learn how to drive.
I grew up in Florida and I absolutely love it. My question to you is, do you think this will help me achieve something? I'm also going to ween myself off of my medication. I believe sun-shine beats medicine anyday. I'm really scared and don't know if I will last. What do you think?
