Have I Got Schizophrenia? Should I Visit a Doctor? Posted: 12-02-04 17:11pm
I began having some form of grandiose
delusion from the age of 9 or 10
i had some friends at primary school but I
always preferred being on my own
i did not develop socially whilst at
secondary school
i did not ever wish to socialize with my
peers outside of school hours
i was bullied (though not physically) at
secondary school for having acne
i had became completely socially withdrawn
by the age of 17
i began talking to myself (pretending to
be someone famous) at the age of 17
i began to reject my father from the age
of 18
i believe my father is always trying to
wind me up and put me down
i think that people are saying derogatory
things about me
i am paranoid as to what other people
think of me
i am hypersensitive to other people’s
reactions towards me
i do not wish to re-enter society unless
there is a guarantee of being accepted
i have only worked for a total of 18
months since leaving school 7 years ago
i have never desired to be sexually
active
i often notice things flashing past the
side of my eyes which aren’t really there
i find it almost impossible to
concentrate
i am always depressed
i cannot tolerate living my life as me
i often think about what it would be like
to commit suicide

I think it is a bit rash to think that you
have schizophrenia, however, it would
benefit you to see a doctor..Psychologist
and find out what is going on. I really
hope you see someone and begin to feel
better about things. Good luck to you.

Runs In the Family? Posted: 03-24-05 17:45pm
My cousin suffers from schizophrenia. He
stays in his room all day and only comes
out at night were he sits in the dark
swaying. Sometimes he likes it whe I go
down an talk to him. He suffers from bad
depression but has good days when his
medication works.
When my dad left 4years ago on easter
sunday, it hit me hard. I blame myself
for not asking him about it. I knew he
was having an affair. I dont know why but
a voice inside my head told me he was.
However another one said that he would
never do that to us because he loved us.
1 week later he left. I should have had
said something. Then I went through
depression. I was prescribed temazapam to
help me sleep. My mum got angry with me
because I had asked for medication to help
me sleep. Then we started arguing all the
time. At times I would sit downstairs and
realise how easy it would be to walk
upstairs and stab her to death. But the
voice told me I was being silly and not to
take any notice. The school niticed that
I wasn't coming in. They had a meeting
with me and my mum, thats when the
psychiatrist got involved. I didnt like
the psychiatrist. I new she was trying to
help but something was telling me that she
was nosing in my private business so that
she could laugh at me as well. I didnt
trust her. I moved out of my mums for 6
months last september. We didnt speak
that much. Then 5 weeks ago I had a head
injury where I was hit round the head.
Ever since then ive had a bad memory and I
talk to myself. My mum says im attention
seeking. I dont think so. Nor does my
cousin. We know theres something wrong
with my head. When I lie in bed at night.
I hear the voices. There all laughing at
me. I dont like them, I want to kill them
then I will be free
