I think I might have a small case of catatonic, or indifferent schizophrenia. I am only 13, and it may be family stress, or just getting older, or something but I don;t think other kids like me, or many others, have the same thing going on as I do. I m very, very paranoid of my teachers, and principal, and i do believe they re out to get me, or affect my academic skills and grades. I also believe they talk about me and how to do bad things to me, even though I really have no evidence. I also think I hear people talk and yell to me, but no one there and I do believe its in my head. I also believe I see people, I can t tell what they are, but they follow me and gather information about me and tell the CIA or FBI or something. Theres some more, but I m not sure it involves schizophrenia.
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for your query. I understand that you are worried that you may be suffering from a psychiatric problem like Schizophrenia. I would advise you to inform an adult about your problems - your parents or a relative or your school counselor - who can arrange for you to consult a psychiatrist. You would need a detailed psychological assessment in order to arrive at any definitive diagnosis. Till then, I would suggest that you don't make any conclusions about your diagnosis. Whatever be your psychological problem, there is help available. So, please speak to someone to get professional help. Wish you all the best.
