I got diagnosed with anxiety, panic attack disorder and traits of ocd but I feel as if I got mis diagnosed last time I posted on here I was extremely scared of being diagnosed with schizophrenia I constantly think about it and ask myself if I gave it and it’s scary I feel beyond detached from reality. Like the only time where I feel close to reality is when I laugh or talk to my cousins or friends … i get so scared during the night when I think about it it makes me sick to my stomach and i start trembling as if I’m cold and this happens on a daily basis I have read articles where people are aware they have schizophrenia but then they have delusions and lose there mind and don’t return to being normal and I’m scared that is happening to me , I really pray that it isn’t … I avoid reading articles online or listening to certain types of music that will make me have thoughts that I’m schizophrenic my grandfather abused drugs heavily and he is schizophrenic and is currently in a mental hospital … so I’m afraid I might have it and end up like him… I have had horrible panic attacks ever since I was a child I would feel detached from reality even then so please give me some feedback guys thank y’all .
And another thing is that he isn’t aware he is schizophrenic
For some time in my twenties, I read only inspirational children’s literature. I wouldn’t even watch TV.
I can stomach a bit more these days.

Sorry you’re going through this, but it sounds like anxiety. Are you seeing a therapist? They can help with your fears. Good luck to you.
You don’t mention and delusions or hallucinations. Those are the symptoms of sz. It sounds like you have anxiety. Maybe you can get the doctor to give you some benzos.
