not op or an expert but this is absolutely incorrect. Plenty of people with schizophrenia are cognizant of their condition. These people are conflating "schizophrenic" with "in the midst of a psychotic episode". And even within a psychotic episode you can retain a (variable) degree of lucidity.
There's a difference between acceptance of death and indifference to life. And there's a difference between cherishing life and coveting it. Acceptance of both life and death are not mutually exclusive things.
I don't know you or what you're going through, but even if that's true, that's ok. Your value isn't determined by your contribution to anything else. The point of revolution is to provide comfort and dignity to the powerless, including those incapable of laboring. You don't need to justify your existence.
edit I say this as a probably-autistic mentally ill NEET shut-in lol. Even after revolution when I might be able to work without agony, I'm not sure how useful I'll be.
So I just learned this term and have incidentally been wondering if I have ASD/ADHD recently--
Is this unique to ADHD? Because while I've mostly been wondering about ASD in my case, this definitely resembles a pattern I've noticed in myself. I've had ridiculously debilitating meltdowns in response to thinking that I may be criticized, as in getting feedback on assignments like 27fireflies.
It's interesting to hear this. I'd also call myself aro+ace, but I find, confusingly, I can enjoy representations of romance/sexuality, I just don't connect it to myself. Except for cishet relationships, which I generally find sort of distasteful (lol). I don't feel an even remote desire to actually take part in a relationship, but I think can appreciate the concept of it as an ideal or a fantasy. Sometimes it does all get on my nerves though. Thanks for posting this :)
