you know, ive said i dont think i have a psychotic disorder. i have autism, anxiety disorders, bulimia, personality disorders…not sure i have a psychotic disorder. with that said, ive seen plenty of things i can relate to even if i dont have schizophrenia. paranoid ideation, problems with motivation, perceptual disturbances even if im not sure i would call most of them hallucinations after educating myself more (they fit the mold for illusions or psuedohallucinations better tbh). i dont feel like i should leave the forum though. aside from honestly being incredibly fascinating to hear about peoples symptomology, i can still relate to people on here, and i feel like i can help people. i know a lot already about pharmocology and mental illness, and i only intend to learn more as im going to be a psych major to become a psychiatrist. it would be pretty cool, assuming this forum is still going and ive made it to medical school and graduated, to post on here as a bona fide psychiatrist. imagine all the knowledge i could give people and the explanations and reassurance i would provide
