I hear people every-now-and-then talking
about self diagnosing schizophrenia and I
was wondering if this is actually
possible. What I mean by this is that if
people are honestly paranoid (or whatever
symptom you have) don't you so believe it
that you don't think of it as paranoia??
Just curious what you all think...

Maybe during a psychotic episode it would
be impossible, but in the time between or
in the aftermath it is possible to get
some insight.
I am all for the internet as a support
source, but not as a diagnostic source.
But people use the internet as a magic
ball, they think it will give them the
answer to everything.

I would have to agree with yo. I know
someone who is diagnosing themselves as a
schizophrenic. Just curious what other
peoples thoughts on the matter were.

Although everyone has told me that you
cant be crazy and know it, i have played
pdoc to myself and diagnosed myself with
schizophenia. I hope to god im not right
due to the poor prognosis for disorganized
subtypes which is what i identify with the
most. If anyone here has ever felt so lost
in thier own mind and detached from it at
the same time then please let me know as
this is the scariest sh*t ive ever
experienced. thanks

seshomaru dude did you know that most
solar systems dont last long at all before
all the planets spinoff into the sun and
explode? do you know what the
mathematical probabilty that this planet
has sustained life on it for as long as it
has is? hwo do we know that gravity isnt
gonna fail us and were not gonna fall off
the planet and burn up in the earths
atmosphere. how do you know that your not
the only one that is a real person and
everyone else is just fake and an
illussion from space aliens to mess with
your head? where did the space aliens come
from? if a tree falls in the woods and
theres no1 there to here it does it make a
s sound? something bigger than all of us
is holding this all together for a divine
purpose dude. its the only possible
explanation. dont let any of that crap
scare you dude. God is good and he will
never give anyone more than they can bare
it goes against his nature. "I have set
the LORD always before me becasue he i9s
at my right hand i will not be shaken."
