Schizophrenia or PTSD?!

Schizophrenia or PTSD?

Hi

I just want somebody to tell me what to do, thing is I have been diagnosed schizophrenic, but after all I don't consider myself mad or something. What I see is that I've had a horible childhood, even tough I always did my best to make everythng look ok. At home, I was abandoned one could say, bot by parents and b grandparents and aunt and uncle. I had to play alone, whether it was in the garden or in my aunts room. I feel my mind hasnt ben stimulated a lot. In kindergarden school apprenticeship people didnt play with me either i hink its because of my attitude which i consider like a show i had to learn in my family, be a good girl always agree with them, plus they never took me seriouslyor anything. in fact i wasnt even allowed to cut myself a piece of bread or fill in something to drink idk how that makes you feel but i think thats not normal. once my mum left me alone when i was 3 r 4 and at that age i had my first hallucination, the ones i have now are the same but stronger.

PS: the diagnosis was made 3 minutes after they have seen me

You may want to request counseling or even daytreatment. It really doenst matter that someone put a label on you for diagnostic purposes and to prescribe medication that helps hallucinations. What really matters is that you work through yout childhood issues, but do it carefully and with good professional help. It may take a few years but you will be better off. And your hallucinations may dissappear at which point you know it was PTSD and not Schizophrenia. Good Luck on your journey.
