I Think I Have Schizophrenia Please Respond I Beg of You.plz Posted: 03-07-06 20:04pm
I did have another topic, but I forgot the
other symtpoms that I have so I just
figure I would start this one. It's long
but please bear with me.
I really didn't like include my full scope
of problems. Here it is... Please be
patient with me.. My last month like
schizophrenia and thoughts of the symttoms
keep staying in my head. Like I don't
really get them, but like i'm afraid I
will. Every strange sound I hear I check
with family members to see if they hear
it. Fortunetaly they have said they did
have. (i'm going to a doctor soon, within
2-3 days) also the reflection thing i've
like gotten over it. Don't really feel
like that anymore. Might have been a
temporary thing. Also for the turning
around quickly thing don't feel anymore.
Like many times when I look something
online disease/illness or whatever then I
begin to look for the symptoms to that
disease/ilnness and get worried that I
might have that.
I'm just going list like incidents or
things that I have thought of before. Or
things that I think might be wierd
- when I talk to others I just react I
don't think about it before I speak. But
for sometimes I think out what i'm going
to say before I talk.
-like when I was around 6th grade so like
4ish years ago. (i'm only 15) I thought
like what's my point of life. Now I guess
I figured it out like I just thought I
(for me anyway) would finish high school,
go to college, then get married and have
kids and then die. Now like if I have a
mental illness I guess my life is
ruined...
-like also 4-5 years back I thought like
why is my life important. Then I think
like am I on like a hidden camera tv show.
(only thought of this for like couple
days, wasn't obsessed with it.) now
looking at the past I see the foolishness
of it. Don't believe in it anymore.
-year back in dining room, I was in dining
room and I heard like a sound. It wasn't
a word or voice. But like deen. I don't
know, don't really remember it so well.
It might have been outside caused by a
car. Haven't really heard of anything
like this since though.
-like from the corner of my eye since my
vision is less detailed and little blurry.
Like I was stretching and something
caught my eye. It was like outline of
like a mermaid gold statue. I turn around
and realize it's the turtle gold statue my
dad bought awhile ago. When I look at it
from center of eye I see it for what it
really is. (this happens like used to
once every 3-4 ish months. Only happened
like for last 2 years. The mermaid thing
was like 2 weeks ago. Haven't experience
it since. It's something that doesn';t
like happen every day) it's not like I see
a fully detailed mermaid that completely
transformed. It just looked like outline
blurry, not that detailed. Only happens
form corner of my eye. Might be just my
subciousness like just being paranoid.
Like the object would seem different.
Might just be angles/lighting.
-like one time when I search online to see
if talking to yourself is normal. I see
that someone said like, you would be a mad
person if you answer yourself back when
you talk to yourself. I do that so I
start thinking maybe i'm going to be
"mad". Like I talk to myself and i'm
like"why, why do I deserve all this. I'm
not the most perfect, nicest person in the
world. But rapists, murderers deserve
illnesses more than me." I take a bath and
then after I look at my reflection and
feel like my mind feels older then my
actual looks. Like I haven't seen my
reflection in a long time, even though I
did serveral times that day. It makes me
feel very sick because I think maybe i'm
going to have a mental illness, like I
feel like i'm about to vomit ( I don't)
and sweat a lot.
-in the dining room once again I thought I
heard a sound like puh chee ( dont ask)
the tv was on so that might have been it.
I really haven't been hearing any strange
voices/sounds since that one time one year
ago in dining room aswell. It might have
been my nerves since I was very anxious
and feel stressed out, that once again I
feel I might get schizophrenia symtpoms.

I went to the doctor's today and he said
that I possibly might have attention
deficit hyperactivity disorder. I'm not
really sure if that's all that correct of
a diagnosis though. Since he thought I
had "confused thinking

side effects of the medication?

It's way too early to give you a diagnose.
Put the med in his coffee. He is
guessing!
By the way, try to google the sideeffects
of your meds. I'm very sure there are a
lot. Is it worth it?

How come it is too early to say? Also to
further describe my symtpoms more.
Like I guess the fear of schizophrenia
really like manifested into something that
is very hard for me to not think about.
Or hard to get out the back of my head.
Like sometimes I start getting really
anxious, tense, stressed out, that I might
actually start seeing things. I haven't
so far but it is really getting to me.
Like for the last month I started looking
up symptoms and thinking oh what is wrong
with me? Does this sound like paranoia or
hypochondria? Also I remembered I watched
this animal tv show where it said 1 out of
3 people have roundworms. Like for the
next two hours I started worrying about it
and thinking about it aswell. That was
like 2 weeks ago though.

disappear.

Well, just in the car yesterday. When
thinking I have schizophrenia was in mind,
I think I heard the sound like ack, and
nee that's it what it sounded like. I
know my mom and brother-in-law didn't hear
it though. The volume of those sounds was
very low, almost like a loud though. It
just drove the point for me to think i'm
going crazy. Also since for the last 3
days I was like in a extremely paranoid
state where I thought I might be going
crazy.
I could tell out like faces in the dirt,
carpet, and the wood grain in my brother's
car. I didn't like compleltely see real
faces (not like fully detailed faces,
actual people's faces), but like I noticed
like any round circle made by the carpet,
wood grain or dirt and 3 dots below it
kind of looks like a face. Or any two
dots next to each other kind of looks like
eyes. It seems like I try to make my ears
more keen and listen to any sound and
check every detail of anything. These two
things only happened to me from the last
five days and haven't happened from my
other parts of life.

Hi I am schizophrenic and have been for
years. None of your symptoms seem like
any of the symtoms that I have experienced
over the years. Good luck ps as far as
seeing faces in furniture carpeting and
such I think is quite natural for people

Also I would like to put down some other
wierd things to reassure myself to see if
this might be schizophrenic. So I was
in the kitchen and couldn't get the
thought of me having schizo in my head.
(i did thought I had schizo so that's
probaly why) I was very stressed out and
anxious, everything pretty much. Then I
thought like what if the whole world is
like a video game like the sims and i'm
only a character controlled by someone and
he's keeping the thought there. Like 2
seconds after I thought about what I just
think about I definetely know that's not
true. Kind of silly looking back on
it.. But I did think about it so.
Like alot of the wierd fears or thoughts I
have I don't believe in anymore or fear.
Also since I checked out online someone
said like "oh, if you talk to yourself,
your crazy". Of course I do that and
then I think oh am I going crazy? I
watched the scary movie before emily rose
where supposedly she got possessed by the
devil and think crap am I goingto get
possessed or something like that. That
was also caused by me thinking it's not
natural to talk to yourself. But this I
also don't believe in anymore or fear.
Also one time last week when I was
sleeping closed my eyes, I could make out
faces in the dark, they were outlined by
like light.. Like the background is
darker and then the faces are lighter.
But then again if I try hard enough I can
imagine seeing lot of things like that.
Also during the day one time last week I
saw a small rectangle green box. I saw
it for like 3 sseconds then it went away.
Also if I try I can imagine like a face
in the wall cause the outline of the face
is lighter like a flashing white shade.
It's not detailed and fully colored or
anything. Not like a real face.
I never thought about any of the above
message til last week.
Also for the last five days since I felt
better and convinced myself I didn't have
any thing serious I almost didn't even
have any of those things above.
Definetely dramatically reduced. Someone
suggested on another forum that i'm
overfocusing on everything and that does
seeem to be true. And also that tv does
seem to easily influence me and I have an
hyperactive imgaination.

Yeah so pretty much the last four days I
have felt really good. Almost don't get
any of these symptoms whatsoever. But I
did remember another weird thing I thought
of before where I thought I was someone
else placed into this body and then had
memories inserted into my brain. But then
this might possibly also been affected by
tv... Since I did watch a movie about a
man who found out he was a clone so that
might have something to do with it.
Looking back on it, it seems very foolish
though.

Hi-
what you've described sounds to me like a
lot of severe anxiety and some depression,
not really schizophrenia. Everyone
occasionally thinks "paranoid" thoughts
such as: "maybe my life is fake or im on a
hidden camera show" that's all pretty
normal. ....It's when you really come to
believe in it and focus on it on a daily
basis that schizophrenia would be
suspected.
Even completly healthy people will
occasionaly hear little sounds that
aren't there, like thinking they heard
their name being called within all the
other talking and noise going on around
them. This is especially so if your
really stressed out. Tell your doctor,
but it doesn;t sound like anything to
really worry over.
And whoever told you that you would be mad
if you talked to yourself is full of bs.
Almost everyone talks to themselves ,
however if your hearing voices in your
head that are not your own inner voices,
then that's another story. What I mean
is, when im not on my meds, I hear voices
inside my head, like other people are
putting their thoughts into my head. They
are not my own thoughts and I have no
control over them. Hope im making
sense.
The illusions you described, like seeing
faces in dirt and carpet could be an early
sign of schiz, but much more likely it's a
result of anxiety and all the worrying and
focusing on schizophrenia you do. When
you see these faces and things in the
dirt, do they pop right out at you even
when your not thinking about it, or do you
kind've have to focus on it for a second
before you see the face.?
It doesn't sound to me like you have
schizophrenia, but im not a doc and like
someone else already said, it sounds like
it's too early to tell.
Good luck :)

Schitz Posted: 05-28-06 07:14am
It doesnt sound like it it sounds more
like a compolsive desorder or somthing,
like you think you schitz, then your mind
plays on reality and some really wierd
stuff might happen but you thought you
where schitz in the first place so you
have technically induced it in the first
place, and the more you do it the worse it
getts in it.
Oh yer when you start getting things like
walking to the post office and ground
turns into a big firey pit and wet your
self then get some help,
also I personally also get the truman show
effect paranoia, just thinking someone is
watching me all the time while I tfreak
out and run into brick walls and stuff
last thing I have been diagnosed with
asbegers syndrome and I know it takes
months and months of doctors vists to get
diagnoses and for you to get diagnoses
first time around is a.) super doctor b.)
work experience boy or c.) get a new
doctor

No all you've got is hypochondria.
Everything you described is perfectly
normal. You're obviously quite a deep
thinker, but this doesn't mean you are
insane.
The human brain is "programmed" to
recognise faces, so that's normal as well.
There's nothing wrong with you, stop
worrying! (I'm thinking about taking that
advice myself...)

I Know Exactly How You Feel Posted: 12-23-07 19:26pm
You dont sound like you have schizophrenia
. I had these kind of symptoms around that
age of 14. testing myself out almost
trying to prove to myself that i had
schizophrenia. every little sound i would
question - is that real i did the thing
with the faces also? It was really hard
as i was always in fear that i was getting
or do have this illness. anyway i went to
see a psycologist in the end. I was
diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder and even
though i found it very hard to believe him
as i was so convinced i had Schizophrenia
it really did turn out to be just an
anxiety thing and more common than you may
think. I know it seems like hell but it
really is treatable? I hope your are
working through it.
let my know how your getting on
BoB.
