Was you traumatized seriously in your childhood or did you have too high pressure overall before you got diagnosis: Schizophrenia?

I have been struggling with psychosis (total psychosis for 16 years)
I have been in border-line schizphrenic state from age of 11 (Serious trauma caused that)
I have overall nearly 30 psychiatric diagnosis and permament one is just: Schizophrenia.
My Schizophrenia is Extreme Difficult to treat because Schizophrenia has started at so young age that my Personality is totally Schizophrenic.

Im not just Schizophrenic by being Schizophrenic
My personality in totally Schizophrenic also.

So its also on personality as its in other way,

Childhood trauma triggered my schizophrenia, just shitty relatives abusing me

For me it was childhood trauma, stress, and some drugs

It is unclear what triggered my illness, as no major trauma had occurred during childhood or later.

I was dealing with some pressure at work, but I didn’t perceive it as worrisome.

I was very into sports and eating healthily. No drugs.

The onset was a bit insidious, I was almost 31 years old at the time of my first episode.

I believe it was childhood trauma and stress that caused my schizophrenia. Maybe weed too.

I read once on here that children who experience consistent anxiety are more likely to become SZ. I identified with that but not so much trauma.

I was sexually abused as a kid and a substance abuser as a teen and young adult. It may or may not have had something to do with me having SZ. I honestly don’t care. When you break your leg, it’s less important how it got broken than it is to move on with healing up and walking again. Which I have done (albeit with a limp, lollllll).

Childhood trauma and later sexual harassment.

I was physically abused by my father as a child, and at the age of 14 he began to sexually abuse me which, I believe, caused my first psychotic break.

For a long time, during onset, I thought I was sexually abused but now I’m unsure. I know I had a stressful/pressure-full childhood and adolescence. I don’t know if the abuse happened or not, the voices were what told me the abuse happened and also one single memory I believed was a flashback which was during a dream but it may have been a nightmare that I misinterpreted as a reality

My life was normal. I just have dopamine problems in my brain.

First couple of years at prep school wet the bed almost every day. Didn’t do so at home during school holidays. Trauma response?

I was born bipolar, no real triggers except for chronic panic disorder.

I was manic and depressed all throughout my childhood and teen years

No particular major trauma. Got a lot of verbal abuse from “friends” in seventh grade and 9th grade. It was pretty bad. A couple older kids picked on me physically at that time. This was all out of school. At school I was generally ignored, I didn’t talk to anyone and nobody talked to me. I don’t know if any of that counts as trauma, it was depressing for sure,
