Low motivation sometimes makes simple daily tasks overwhelming for people with schizophrenia. Some basics seem impossible like getting out of bed, cooking a meal or keeping up with hygiene. Many claims having a simple plan or small steps can make a difference.
It is usually suggested to breaking tasks into tiny and manageable pieces like brushing teeth first and thereafter washing face but before having a snack. Some use checklists, timers or reminders to stay on track. Others believe relying on routines.
Support from others also may help. Hence, look for a good friend, family member or caregiver. Self-compassion is simultaneously also important. It is better to accept that some days will be harder than others.
