Hi,

I posted a similar thread on the bipolar forum but since then I've researched on schizophrenia and DD. I now believe that my girlfriend has DD.

Here's the story...

About three weeks ago, my girlfriend discovered some family issues that's been extremely traumatizing and stressful for her. Basically, she found documents to believe that her step-mom has been planning for years to transfer over family assets to her step-brother. A lot of the assets ...

Ok, by the western model I'd consider myself mildly schizophrenic.

I'm in a psych ward at the moment. If the nurses knew I was writing about this they'd spaz. Luckily they don't know. Anyway this is the deal. I checked my self into the Psych Ward on tuesday evening. Because I was stressing out with school and my roommates where acting a little wierd towards me. I had a bad psychotic episode once and I ...

Has anyone tried Zyprexa Zydis? I read a study of 9 patients that were switched from Zyprexa to Zyprexa Zydis. It said they lost an average of 14.5 pounds in 4 months. I believe the study was limited because it only involved 9 patients and they knew what they were taking. I would like to know how Zyprexa Zydis affected the weight of others that have used it. Thanks.

I have a question, I'm curious to find out a few things. I'll tell you a little bit about my problem. 9 months ago I was diagnosed with depression with psychotic symptoms (thats about as severe as my diagnosis has got.) Anyway they but me on some anti-psychotics, I experimented with a few different ones for about 3 months. Then I quit because they made me feel even more depressed. I'm gentically built like a ...

My diagnosis of 2-3yrs. is schizophrenia. The problem is that much of me does not believe this, or similarly does not want to. EVERY person I know has a belief that corroborates with this same idea.

Often I stop taking my medicines for long periods of time; thinking each time that it is all a lie planted in my brain by a parasite that controls my right eye and certain parts of my brain(particularly the ...

im 15. when i was younger (around 7-11ish) i used to think everyone could read my mind. also i saw something on tv about someone selling their soul and it would come into my mind constantly and i would start to say something in my head about selling my soul to satan and i thought if i said it i would go to hell. i would start to say it and stop myself all the ...

I dont even really know where to begin. For the past 2-3 years my life has just gone down the drain. Throughout grade school and up until 8th grade I was perfectly normal,happy,and sucessful in academics. When I hit my freshman year in highschool my moods all of the sudden changed, I became extremely depressed and developed extremely low self-worth. After a devistating year of just moping around and being what I consider "hollow" I ...

hi,

i've only just come clean with my psychaitrist about my voices because he asked so many leading questions, that for ages i told him stuff like they were giving me instructions etc cos that's what i thought he wanted me to say.

because what i was experiencing was so sureal to me i thought he knew more, even though i was the one experiencing it. sounds weird but part of me actually believed him ...

The other day my friend was laying on his bed, and he got up and started freaking out. He went and hugged his mom and started apologizing to her, and he told her that he killed his brother and stole money from him and that there was a guy named lusifer waiting for him in the washroom. He said he may have been sleep walking. Do you think this could be Schizophrenia?
