Do i have schizophrenia??

Posted , 5 users are following.

I was researching about Hallucinating, and I saw that it was linked to Schizophrenia, and Isaw the symptoms and it seems that i had the same symptoms. For example, hallucinating, I would hear creepy sounds, someone slamming the door, someone screaming across the street, humming sound, and also sounds telling me im worthless, stupid etc, and when i was younger i would talk to my imaginary friends, and imagine scary things in my room that aren't actually there. And also I experience delusion, I'm afraid all the time and I'm always worried, wherever I go, I would think that someone behind me if following me and trying to kidnap me, and sometimes I think my parents adopted me while I'm actually not. And I used to have that I have super powers like moving objects via my mind or controlling waves. And I used to think that people see my appearance as if imSomeone else. Also I believe that one day I will meet the people that I've seen in my dreams, and other weird stuff. Whenever I hear creepy thing or imagine scary things, I would just start shaking and my heart start beating so fast. And I have that feeling when I'm sleeping that someone behind me is going to stab me. I've always had depression because uhm let's say I just have a sh*tty life, and I experience a lot of mood swings (a lot) I would be nice and in a moment I would just start screaming and hitting myself and pulling my hair.

    You will not know unless you seek medical help.

    Whatever you do, do not just let it ride - you do need help, so please get it.

    Usually people who recognise that they have hallucinations are not schizophrenic. There are however a lot of other mental illnesses that your symptoms could be interpreted as. For example bipolar, or borderline personality disorder.

    I would not recommend self-diagnosis, or Dr Google either! I would get an appointment with your GP as soon as possible, Monday preferably, explain to them that it is a mental health issue and you need urgent help and you should be offered a same day appointment.

    All the best. Let us know what the Dr does say in the end!

      Soulrasta, I have just read your post and I am wondering how you manage with your life, as you have not been out of the house for so long?

      Anxiety and depression are dreadful life-changing disorders that should really be constantly monitored by a medical team including a psychiatrist, so I am  concerned that you have got the necessary medical support that you need, or if you are trying to go it alone which is not a good idea.
