Because when i have i broke down. But there were other factors at the time.
I asked my case manager what would happen if i broke down. They would talk to my psych doctor, i would stay in my apartment. So that helps i thought they would ship me off to a group home.

I have lived alone for several decades, in small apartments or Single Room Occupancy hotels. Sometimes I get lonely, but I have family and friends to talk with. I am on olanzapine for my SZA. As to your psychosis, I'd talk with your psychiatrist, sooner rather than later.
