Q: Does This Sound Like Schizophrenia?

Ok so here's thie story.

I was diagnosed w/ bi-polar disorder in november of last year so I don't know if this is what i'm going through, but it doesn't "feel" right.


-since maybe 3 weeks ago i've been hearing strange noises like knocking that noboy else in my house seems to hear.

-a few days ago I looked out my window and I could swear I saw a man wearing a ski mask staring in at me. I was so scared, I could barely get up to get out of my room I was so scared. I couldn't even scream. So I got up to go to my brother's room to have him check it out, he said that it would have been impossible for someone to have been there because there's a block wall about a foot away from my window and nobody would have fit there if they tried. ( I have barely been able to sleep since then, I have to sleep w/ the tv and a light on now i'm so scared)

-last night as I was on the computer I looked down and I swear the color of the floor was changing.


-i feel like somebody is allways over my shoulder or watching me from afar

-i've allways been a very paranoid person in general w/ random events, like I remmeber this one time maybe 6 or 7 months ago I was at my grandma's house alone and I took a shower, as I was getting out of the shower I could swear that I heard ppl breaking into the house... I heard ppks voices and evrytihng that they were saying perfectly clear. And I was so scared I just stayed in the bathroom until my grandmas came home, hours later.


-lately I just haven't wanted to talk to any of my friends, talk on the phone, or go to the mall (which is very stange behavior for me-i've allways been the one to force evryone out to a party or the mall) and the only person who i've been talking to at all is my boyfriend (on the phone) and I find my self not being able to concentrate on him, but on the ceiling fan that i';m staring at when he's on the phone w/ me. I see his calls at night as more of a comfort. I'm not as scared.


Please tell me what you think.
please please please. Help me.
