I'm so afraid that I might have
schizophrenia. My grandma had it, and my
mom, who recently just died a few weeks
ago because of a drug overdose. And then
in my class i'm doing a project on
schizophrenia, and all the symptoms are so
totally me. I don't hear voices or see
any hallucinations or anything, but
everything else fits so perfectly, and my
dad and step-mother told me a long time
ago that there's a chance I might have it.
Well, after doing this project, i'm
scared that I really do, but I can't
really be sure, because you can't really
tell until i'm like 20-30 years old. I
can't talk to my step-mother because
she'll say it's all in my head, but I know
deep-down she's scared too. When I was
younger I used to have seizures because
i'd have to much stuff on my mind, and i'd
jump from thought to thought too quickly,
so I know that has to mean something.
And if I talk to my dad about it, he'll
just get stressed out about it, and then
i'd feel bad. I just totally don't know
what to do at all...

You can go and talk to your doctor in
private about these thoughts and feelings,
you obviously think too much ( like me)
and your mind races.It's a shame your mum
and dad wont talk to you about this, it's
nothing to be ashamed of but it does need
to be addressed and dealt with. Try and
get to the doctors or even speak to
another adult that you can trust. Take
care.
