What symptoms made you realize you had schizophrenia, or led to your diagnosis?
Asking as somebody who is increasingly terrified that I'm schizophrenic.

When you "see" things is it something that you can easily tell isn't real?

Levi Wood
>What symptoms made you realize you had schizophrenia, or led to your diagnosis?
Sleep problems were the first thing that I noticed. It's why I originally went. Suffering from nightterrors every night for a week on top of my sleeping schedule flipping from night to day multiple times throughout the week.
That and paranoia. Every sound was someone trying to break into my house.
>Asking as somebody who is increasingly terrified that I'm schizophrenic.
I wouldn't be too worried.
>Do you suffer from any other disorders besides schizophrenia?
Probably. But, I'm not aware of them.
I've been told by people I know I'm a narcissist and few other's similar to it. But people say dumb shit all the time.
>Are any of your hallucinations enjoyable?
Music can be. I hallucinate music a lot.
Grayson Gomez
how did you come to find you had Schizophrenia? how do most come to find they have Schizophrenia? are there types based on having it since you were born and ones where you contracted it later on in life?

is it new music? Have you considered becoming a composer?
Parker Rodriguez

Gavin Green

They don't look "solid" it looks fuzzy like it's bleeding through the universe. They look askew often. Just off. Not right.
>Like starting at something for too long and you see something in the corner of your eye but in your mind you know it's all in your head?
Yeah, I get that a lot. I don't even have to be staring at something. Could be walking down the hall and think I saw something. Washing dishes, just normal day shit.
>even if its something minor it helps a bit to talk.
My brain is fucked up. I don't experience emotions the same way "normal" people do.
>you can talk about something that makes you happy fren
Like...?
>how did you come to find you had Schizophrenia?
I saw a psychologist because I was having massive amounts of sleep issues.
>are there types based on having it since you were born and ones where you contracted it later on in life?
Well, you don't "contract" it. You're predisposed to it. It's kind of always with you from when you're born. It's just not always activated.
Does that make sense?
>is it new music?
Pretty much always.
>Have you considered becoming a composer?
I have many times. I have a tendency to just drop things I'm doing.
Asher Garcia
>What is the biggest lifestyle change you've had to make to deal with your condition?
Completely withdrawing from society.
Cooper Scott
so for someone to be diagnosed with schizophrenia later in life, they've always kind of had it and it's only started showing itself then? Is everyone predisposed to having it or only a select few?
Jason Flores
>they've always kind of had it and it's only started showing itself then?
That's my understanding of it, yes.
>Is everyone predisposed to having it or only a select few?
From what I gather it's mostly genetic. So, not everyone is predisposed to it.
Charles Jones
Schizoids tend to show signs of their schizophrenia around the age of 21 and it only worsens with time. Sometimes it shows itself up later or earlier but more often then not its around early 20s
Nobody really knows what causes schizophrenia, but a lot of people say its genetic and there's no real cure for it nor way to contract it
Alexander Morgan

How old are you OP and how much of what this user says is true?
Jaxson Harris
>Sleep problems were the first thing that I noticed. It's why I originally went. Suffering from nightterrors every night for a week on top of my sleeping schedule flipping from night to day multiple times throughout the week.
>I wouldn't be too worried.
I have that going on too. I inexplicably become nocturnal for days to weeks at a time. No night terrors or hallucinations but I find it nearly impossible now to hold onto any sort of routine. Both symptoms are to the point where I'm unable to maintain any meaningful relationships with people or look for steady employment.
I also have what I can only call "anger flashes'. Sometimes when my mind wanders, if I think of something that makes me angry, all of a sudden my entire vision becomes filled with scenes of intense violence and my body lashes out wildly. When it's over I'm usually off balance with my heart racing. Used to happen when I was younger, but only for a second or two and only when I was completely alone. Now it can last for up to half a minute and I'm starting to experience this when I'm driving or otherwise dangerously close to being in public.
Nicholas Reyes
>How old are you OP
I'm 27.
>and how much of what this user says is true?
Pretty much all of it. Not a lot is really known about Schizophrenia. There's no real cure for it. The average age is something between 18-21 for males and 28-31 for females if I remember correctly.
Christian Richardson
>I have that going on too.
If you're worried about you should see someone. all of those issues could be so many different things. Or they could just be nothing.
>I also have what I can only call "anger flashes'
I've never heard of anyone with Schizo describe anything like that.
Gabriel Miller

You should probably still see a psychologist at the least. You've most likely got some problems that you need to deal with.

How do you feel about the inevitable rapid cognitive decline you will suffer? Word salad, racing thoughts you can’t make sense of, memory issues etc. What makes life worth living? Antipsychotics make you fat and aren’t capable of completely erasing any symptom but without them psychosis sounds unbearable. Schizophrenia is a lose-lose situation pal.
Jaxon Peterson
>How do you feel about the inevitable rapid cognitive decline you will suffer?
I don't.
>Word salad, racing thoughts you can’t make sense of, memory issues etc.
Already have everything there.
>What makes life worth living?
Life is suffering. Everyone is suffering. Me, you, that kid in Africa that will die of starvation in a few hours.
The human condition is suffering.
>Antipsychotics make you fat
I don't take them.
>Schizophrenia is a lose-lose situation pal.
Life is a lose-lose situation. You spend your entire life suffering while you try to accomplish something, never get it complete, then you die.
Jacob Cooper
Why don't they ever listen? I keep telling them that it's not so easy to ignore, but they just shrug their shoulders and pretend to care, but they don't even understand, let alone have the capacity of caring about such that they can't comprehend. They don't get it, the things that run through my head daily, hourly. Random, incoherent mumbling mostly, but the occasional message prodding through, and I never like what I hear. It feels like I'm battling myself, like some deeper consciousness of mine thinks these crazy things just to mess with me. I laugh in my head and say, yeah, that'd be crazy if I really thought that, but I feel in some part that those ridiculous thoughts might seem normal if they repeat themselves often enough. I'm afraid of going crazy, because I'm afraid of these thoughts someday seeming normal, and worse, like good ideas.
Carson Adams
have you ever taken acid?
Matthew Jackson
>Why don't they ever listen?
Because people are self centered. They care only about themselves. The only time they care about something that happens to you, is if it also affects them.
>have you ever taken acid?
I have not. But I do want to some day.
Jayden Carter
You don’t care about irreversible stupidity? Every schizophrenic does, it’s not something you can avoid. There are tons of articles on the internet explaining this symptom and it gets so bad to the point people can’t even comprehend what they’re reading. Schizophrenics typically have a lower iq than the general population and no medication can change this. What a sad way to live life.. fearing imaginary figures and rambling nonsense, this is the worst mental disorder anyone could ever be cursed with. I salute you.
Adam Ward

>You don’t care about irreversible stupidity?
You mean the process of aging? You realize literally every person on the planet gets stupider as they age?
>Schizophrenics typically have a lower iq than the general population
Someone doesn't know how a bell curve works.
>fearing imaginary figures
Never met a schizophrenic who feared any imagniary figures. I think you might be confusing the Hollywood characterture of Schizophrenia for the real thing.
>this is the worst mental disorder anyone could ever be cursed with.
That is how it's described, yes.
>Why do you keep posting this thread?
It's literally in the OP.
>Ask me anything
So people will, wait for it.... Ask me anything.
>who said he was a psychologist
Nope, I've never claimed to be a psychologist. I've actually stated multiple times that I'm not a professional just because I have the illness.
>would help people out
I do try to help people if they ask for it though. Or if they seem as if they want help.
>can i simulate schizophrenia through sleep deprivation
If you don't sleep for around 3-5 days it can trigger psychosis. Yes.

Maybe
Schizophrenia is a lot more complicated than simply seeing and hearing things that aren't there. It's a constant feeling of unrest or instability, it's hard to explain. It's as if you're losing control of your mind while constantly suffering from your most negative emotions.
Of course there's different kinds of schizophrenia and each one comes with it's host of negative emotions, but what I've said before is the stuff I've gathered from reading about it.
I've always been interested in schizophrenia and other mental disorders, and even tried to figure out ways to achieve it ever since I was 13 due to memes about magic and spirituality but gave up once I hit 20 after understanding how truly horrible it is
Do you know anything scientific about it?
What kind of information did you gather from your trips to a psychologist?
Also am I right about schizophrenia feeling like you're slowly slipping out of reality and your sanity
Elijah Myers
this reply proves ur a dumb fuck. lmao no matter who we are we all age but the average neurotypical takes years, decades, to reach an age where they are prone to disorders like dementia and can’t read or function properly anymore. schizophrenics are thrown into psych wards more often than they are at home no matter the age they are, the point is schizophrenic neurological deterioration is rapid unlike those who are sane.
Ian Brooks
ah i see now the real question is are traps gay
Thomas Sullivan
>Do you know anything scientific about it?
Not really, I used to but I haven't really paid any attention to that sort of stuff in a long time.
>What kind of information did you gather from your trips to a psychologist?
That I have a lot of problems. Most of whom stem from my less than perfect childhood.
>Also am I right about schizophrenia feeling like you're slowly slipping out of reality and your sanity
More or less. The word Schizophrenia is derived from greek (I think) Schizo (split) phrene (mind).
It's like you become detached from everything. Reality, yourself, your emotions, everything around you.
>ah i see now the real question is are traps gay
Yes. The flow chart was originally made for that.
Traps are in fact gay.
Kayden Thomas
>this reply proves ur a dumb fuck.
Only if you're an ignorant piece of shit.
>but the average neurotypical takes years, decades, to reach an age where they are prone to disorders like dementia
And the average schizophrenic leads a fairly normal life. Contrary to popular belief.
>and can’t read or function properly anymore.
I've suffered from Schizophrenia for around about 10 year by my estimation.
How am I able to sit here and read and make sense of sentences?
You're extremely ignorant.
>schizophrenics are thrown into psych wards more often than they are at home
Incorrect.
About 1/3 Schizophrenics are actually hospitalized.
That's 66% who aren't hospitalized.
>point is schizophrenic neurological deterioration is rapid
Again, false. Only about 1/3 of schizophrenics have rapid mental deterioration.
2/3's are able to live fairly normal lives. Maybe with some intermittent breaks from reality.
You don't seem to know very much about the disorder.
It's like saying
>The majority of Schziophrenics are criminals
>Because Schizophrenics make up a large portion of prison/jail inmates
It's just ignorant.
Christian Anderson

It's a decent way to pass the time.
It's kind of like people watching. Except you're engaged.

>Can you tickle yourself?
Yeah, it's not very hard at all.

I don't really freakout. It's not like an autist sperging out.
>Where is proof you are one
The proof is in everything I've said. You can choose to believe it or not.
I could just as easily forge a document from a psychiatrist. Or forge a pill bottle with a random name on it with some generic anti-psychotic.
>You could be larping like every other fag on Sup Forums for attention
Yeah, I could be. Again, that's for you to decide.
>u ain’t special
Depends on how you define special. I'm no different from you, or any other user, no.
I'm just a guy who has a fucked up brain.

Do you think there will be a cure for schizophrenia in your lifetime? Or at the very least drastically improved medication? Why dont you take any?
Dylan Morales
>why am i such a faggot?
Wait a second this isn't how this is supposed to look.
>why havent i killed myself yet?
Ru.ok/user?
>Do you think there will be a cure for schizophrenia in your lifetime?
I highly doubt it. By my estimation the world will end before that happens.
>Or at the very least drastically improved medication?
Not very likely. All the funding goes to cancer, and they've basically gotten nowhere for the cure. Until cancer is cured, don't expect any other disease to be cured.
>Why dont you take any?
Too many side effects.
Can take a month to get acclimated to one medication to even see if it works.
Then if that medication doesn't work you need to stop it (usually slowly), then go through withdraw.
Then you have to be put on another medication for another month to see if that works.

Should I be worried about hearing voices, not believing life is real, minor visual hallucinations, tactile hallucinations, excessive paranoia, belief of seeing the future and the panic attacks that come with it when the visions I have had come true and play out just as I saw they would.
Seeing the future is not the correct way to word it however I dont know how to describe it other than knowing what minor day to day things will happen occasionally
Noah Collins
What's your opinion on self mutilation?
Anthony Williams
No question but thanks for the cute vampire pictures
Lucas Brooks
>Should I be worried
Maybe? Those are all signs of some sort of underlying mental health issue.
What exactly that is though? Could be anything.
Could just be your personality.
Couldn't hurt to see a professional about it, though.

I get that fairly often as well, I know what you're talking about.
