Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a complicated mental health problem that is hard to make sense of put together; many people tend to confuse Schizophrenia with multiple personality disorders, but has no connection with it whatsoever. "Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe mental disorder that affects the way a person thinks, acts, expresses emotions, perceives reality, and relates to others" (Bhandari, 2022). It can also be defined as: "Schizophrenia refers to both a single condition and a spectrum of conditions that fall under the category of psychotic disorders" (Cleveland Clinic, 2018). Many behaviors or experiences may be a part of this disorder; or the behaviors could be due to schizophrenia. "When schizophrenia is active, symptoms can include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, trouble with thinking and lack of motivation" (American Psychiatric Association, 2020).

My Experience as Neurodivergent Adult
Perfectly fine and happy one minute, the next minute so exhausted mentally, physically and emotionally there isn’t anything left to do but lay in bed and sleep. We have all been there. As an extroverted introvert, this is a constant battle I face. Most days I feel completely drained after work, self-isolating until I return to work the next day. My days off are spend in self-isolation, usually working on my novel, or playing Fallout ™ or Wolfenstein ™. I occasionally go to the theme parks, but only if I wear my Boise ™ noise-cancelling headphones. As a child, I was energetic, extremely outgoing, and enjoyed being with friends and around people.
