is it or not?

I don't know whether what I experience is Schizophrenia or not, I sometimes but very rarely hear very loud thoughts in my mind, they gradually get louder and louder and sometimes feel as though they are coming from my own mouth. I don't know if it is just stress and my own thoughts. Oh and I cant make out civil conversation, it's just babble. If I calm down normally it goes away after a few minutes

help?

oh and I forgot to add, when people talk to me when I'm in this state or I hear music it seems 10 times louder and more agressive that it would usually be

Sounds similar to stuff I experience... but then you hear your own thoughts? Are they your own voice?

I hear my own thoughts loud and clear like I am speaking and I also experience hearing music and background at much higher levels to everyone else. On top of that I hear and see things that no one else hears and sees- the voices are different to mine and seem to come from somewhere outside of my head.

This was something my doc focused on when she first met me... it seems to be a key thing.

The main thing isn't what illness you have, it's how to deal with it. Go see your doctor, tell him your symptoms before they get too much for you and take over. It is very common to have one "episode" in your life and if you treat it correctly you may never experience it again. So go see your doc
