Hi guys, starting a few months ago, about
once a week or so I started seeing what
looked something like lightbugs, in my
peripheral vision, they looked like they
were just swarming around and if i tried
to look directly at one it would
dissapear, it is kind of hard to explain.
lately i have seen them more frequently,
usually about once a day and i saw a movie
in health about schizophrenia and some of
the things it said reminded me of what has
been happening to me. if you guys could
give me your input of whether this is a
sign of schizophrenia or not i would be
thankful, because im just a little bit
concerned

What are some of the other things going
on? How old are you? Does mental illness
run in your family?

well we can tell your impatient at least.
nobody will be able to diagnose you on the
internet. you dont seem to be paranoid,
hold any strange beliefs, having
delusional thoughts, having
hallucinations.. ect ect so i doubt your
schizoprenic.
ever take LSD or any other hard
psychedelic drugs? sounds more like you
have slight symptoms of HPPD.
but in short to answer your question no i
dont think you showing any signs of
schizoprenia or anything related. nobody
can really make a proper diagnosis on the
net though due to lack of information.

You need to go to a doctor.
This could be caused by many things,
including neurological conditions. Weird
visual symptoms are a huge concern and you
should go to a doc asap.
