Diagnose Me

So i have this problem where everywhere i go i notice that people feel uncomfortable around me. i dont know what it is but if i were to describe it its as if my emotions are seeping out of me and people can kind of feel them. i feel great tension from people i also feel emotionaly attacked. im also constantly stared at. i dont think im delusional i can always feel the tension and i have noticed people react to me even when not knowing im there. i dont know what to do. what do you think is my diagnosis and the group of medicatoin i shold be taking? ( im already seeing professional help im just seeing if what is said here matches)

i used to have those almost same symptom early on in the onset of my disease as the disease progressed it got worse and worse until i was finally diagnosed with schizophrenia... its good that you have professional help...

but if you ask me what you describe are signs of delusions if i relate to my own experiences... whether you think so or not those are just my opinions

but you want an honest answer, and based on my own experiences those are delusions most definitely...

i wish you the best and i hope you problems don't regress or progress for the worse... work with a specialist....

thank you about the reply, can you please tell me more about you, like what medications you had to take and for how long. and right now its so convincing that everyone is uncomfortable around me.

no worries, if you want to go through my other posts in other sections just click on my username and look up my posts

right now though... my diagnosis is bipolar hypomania... and my medications has gone way down, right now i'm taking epilim, zydis and solian twice a day

the dosage is 100mg solian and 200mg epilim every morning and 10mg zydis, 150 mg solian and 200mg epilim every night... this is quite low actually... as i've made really great progress in the past 3 years...

my initial dosage was messed up.. i had 3 packets and 2 bottles and had to take like 3 pills from each packet and bottle every morning and night... but that was insane now things are much better... i think that since you're on here... your still in limbo... between your delusions and doubting them...

i know that feeling most of the time in that state my instincts and mind is tearing away at my reality and telling me that everything i feel is real but my rationale mind have some doubts that its true.... i've gone through that a lot and you might be able to relate to that.... its a troubling state of mind....

but for me whenever i'm in that state i go on forums and read about other people's experiences who go through similar things and that helps and keeps me grounded...

are you an adult..? are you alone or do you have someone or people close always around?

for me my symptoms started when i was 13 years old... i was reading something in the hallway on a board... and i thought my friend heard my thoughts... i was strangely convinced and my delusion started since then.... i thought people could feel my emotions... and after some time it progress to hearing everything that went through my mind... i used to confirm my delusions by finding clues in peoples stares.... but for me it was different it was me who was uncomfortable not the other way around....

people used to stare at me all the time... and i took that as evidence that my delusions are true... the more convinced i got the more my disease progressed and the symptoms got worse then after some time i got really depressed...

but that was my case... you're seeing a professional and are seeking help... with the right medications you can prevent things from getting worse... remember one thing... knowing your diagnosis is a good thing... but the most important thing is to get the right meds... with the right meds that works for you... you can recover.. and be better than an ordinary person

i'm 24 now... its been just 11 years since my first real symptoms... and right now i'm in my recovery phases and when i look at myself and think of what i've achieved... though lacking, i'm better of than a lot of people who are completely normal... i have a different perspective on life.... and right now its all for the better...

so make sure you seek help... forget about the stigma... focus on making sure your symptoms don't progress for the worse.... i actually don't care about the stigma... not even a little bit...

once you feel better you can focus on you life to a greater extent

best wishes

Hi hun. We can't give a diagnosis here. As you are concerned about your symptoms, I suggest you write them down and speak to a doctor. This could be anything from severe self consciousness to a diagnosable psychiatric illness. Speaking to a doctor will put your mind at rest, and you will find the right treatment for you, so that you no longer have to endure these symptoms. Let us know how you get on.

i am already seeking a professional and he already has prescribed me medication im just seeing if he truly gave me the right diagnosis.
