frugal

Hello, I posted my story on The Mighty previously. I wanted to give an update based on recent experiences.

Since last Fall I am in remission from schizophrenia, in part with the medications that I am taking.

My symptoms were around music, and I can listen to music now without having unusual thinking.

In addition, I am in my second year of my PhD. With it comes increased responsibilities, more time doing lab work and (hopefully) an end to my classes (as long as I pass they will be my last).

I feel confident in my career direction, I always wanted to do a PhD as a life goal. Though I am concerned about the lack of jobs, not just for my field though I am concerned about that too.

Past my PhD I plan to room with my twin brother who is looking into disability and autism resources. What is some general advice, as well as tips for being frugal?

I’m really glad to be doing well at my PhD, being in remission (from sz) and having the support of my family as well. It is nice to be able to share posts about my progress and journey with a community that gets some of the struggles that I’ve been through.
