Answers:
Defenetly not schizophrenia, maybe bipolar disorder, in the lower stages of depression and higher stages of anxiety the person could reveal delusional and paranoid sypmtoms, including hallucinations, prozac is a drug prescribed for depressive disorders, schizophreia always give the first signals of existence during the early twenties, and appear at the mid tweinties.
In any case I sugest you to see a doctor.
I am 14
I am depressed, and have cut myself,
I hear Sierra,
I was on prozac because i would not calm down before i went to bed
I sometimes imagine anime characters are real.
I have never used drugs
She might get blurred vision because the glasses are the wrong persxription( happened to me)
sounds schizophrenic to me, maybe has psychosis + social anxiety like you mentioned.
He sounds to have paranoia schizophrenia.
Too much TV and not enough fresh air, and yes I AM serious.
schizophrenia
From personal experience, because there a lot of messed up **** in my family, this sounds like a mix of schizophrenia and hormone imbalance. This person needs lots of help, but I don't mean throw them in an institute. I mean they need help from the people they know and trust, they need to learn the difference between reality and imagination. Social anxiety is to be expected with this kind of issue, and the worse thing you can do is force this person into an uncomfortable situation (being around too many people, being in a hospital, being handled aggressively etc.). This person probably goes to a public school, that's the worst kind of an environment for someone with a mental problem, and I'm sure you can think of lots of reasons why. You need to find a specialist (and a home tutor), and (assuming you are a parent) take sessions WITH the child. Specifically state that you do not want to deal with any medication. Medication is a temporary band aid, it does not fix anything and in almost every case it makes things worse. Please Please take my advice on the medication thing, it seems like an easy way out but you will be setting him up for a life of misery.
