In response to:
Yes, it is possible.     My earliest diagnosis was Par ,Schizo.         I was happily married (common-law) for 7 years.   My son will be 22 this year       My recovery has been lengthy but in that time I've had 4 other relationships , two with par.schiz. women.     You speak of health and by that I can assume you mean emotional health and what people would mean when they say"healthy relationship".            If you are the caregiver in the relationship, that is , if you are acting in the medical interest of the individual, a romantic relationship may not be advisable,          However, if the two of you are in love , then nothing can stop you !!             Remember to be patient (pun intended) with your partner .         Bear in mind that their world may not connect at all with yours , the real world.        And know that recovery is possible.       P.S.   re "caregiver"    Most couples united this way have a partner who is also involved with medical matters.     Sincerely,   Don Fraser
