If this is a formal court-ordered guardianship, then you will need to petition the court to terminate or limit the powers of the guardian. You will need to provide testimony and evidence that you are competent and able to handle your affairs. Speak with the guardian and see if they will agree with your assessment. If so, this could be a simple process. If not, litigation will be the next step for you. Speak with a family law attorney who has knowledge and experience with guardianships.

You should definitely share your concerns with your Guardian. If you are able to get to and post this question, you may be ready to have a less restrictive means to assist you. The court does not want to keep you under a guardianship if it is no longer necessary. The process is very simple if your guardian agrees and a bit more complicated if they do not agree with you. Contact a Guardianship/probate attorney-not a family lawyer if you live in Texas. Blessings to you and congratulations for making the effort to be restored.

You should hire a probate attorney to determine your options.

I see you are in San Antonio. I assume your guardianship is in one of the two Bexar County probate courts. I'm also assuming your current guardian disagrees with you. If you don't control your money, then you can't hire a lawyer to help you. You might contact the court investigator for your court. Here in Travis County, the judge sometimes will order a ward to be re-evaluated to see if a guardianship is still necessary. When you were very sick, a doctor concluded that you could not make your own decisions. So you're going to need a doctor to say that now you can. Good luck.
