Do I have mild schizophrenia?!


Question: I have multiple (2 or 3 to be exact) personalities and occasionally I talk to myself, when no one is around. If I have to let something out (usually caused by fights, arguments or humiliation) I can have a conversation with myself for up to an hour or more. Does that make me a mild schizophrenic?

Schizophrenia is a chronic and often debilitating mental illness. The condition can cause you to withdraw from the people and activities in the world around you and to retreat into a world of delusions or separate reality.

Schizophrenia is a form of psychosis, which is an impairment of thinking in which the interpretation of reality is abnormal. Psychosis is a symptom of disordered brain function.

The illness affects approximately 1 percent of the population worldwide. In men, schizophrenia typically emerges in the teens or 20s. In women, the onset of schizophrenia typically is in the 20s or early 30s.

There's often no cure for schizophrenia, but by working closely with a psychiatrist and other mental health professionals, schizophrenia can be managed successfully
