Could I have schizophrenia?!


Question: Could I have schizophrenia?
I have been like this for about three or four years now. Which was about the time my house burnt down, and I had two panic attacks in the same year. I was only ten at the time. Now I'm 15

I have been hearing things like voices lately and also sounds, but it's just for a few minutes a day. I feel paranoid somewhat, but mostly i've been really confused. I didn't remember how to take a shower, sometimes really simple math is hard.

I don't get depressed that often.

Sometimes people don't understand the way I react to what they say, I don't get this, but if it helps. I feel kinda irritated by this whole thing. Could I have it, or is it just like developing, because I read somewhere that schizophrenia comes in on a steady, slow decrease in function.

Do you think I have it?

Answers:

age 15 and onward ......is the age that you can get schizophrenia........

the voices and forgetfulness...........

i would go see and doctor and tell him her of your symptoms, they will be able to hook you up with a psychiatrist that can treat you with counseling and meds.......

if you need a hospital stay to balance you medically......do not fight them!!
the hospital staff are there to help you........

i wound up staying 12 days and walked out feeling clear and ready to take care of my self.........

btw.......schizophrenia does run in families ....there is this weird aunt or uncle..........remember ???



Jason,....please don't use this forum to diagnose your condition. You need to be seen by a professional who can make an informed decision based on science rather than speculation. There are many conditions (depression, PTSD etc) that can have the same symptoms but you need to be evaluated before you jump to any conclusions. Best wishes to you



if you are hearing voices recently, then you should see a doctor. there is a condition called paranoid schizophrenia. you seem to have good insight, so you have picked it up at an early stage (if it is this at all). good luck
