How many conditions have you thought you had in the past? Simple question. Of those things you ever thought you had, how many did you really have? Kind of like using a kind of logic with yourself.

None at all I'm my own worst enemy and now I'm looking for symptoms of schizophrenia even thought I know for a fact all I have is Health Anxiety

I still think medication and/or therapy would be a great idea.

have you followed through with any therapy?

i work in mental health (funny, i know) and if you were schizophrenic, you'd have no idea. you definitely wouldn't be worrying about it.

I'm just really worried about developing itnow. I've can hear my own thoughts in my head but I suppose everyone can hear themselves. My anxiety only got worse ever since doing that vape back in july and for some reason being latched on to the fact it could of caused this or a brain illness.

again, if you were schizophrenic, you'd have no clue. you certainly wouldn't be worrying about it. how old are you, anyway?

sorry to sound like a broken record but have you followed through with the therapy that was recommended by your doctor? i recall from an older post that you'd missed multiple appointments for unknown reasons. I'm guessing you haven't gone based on the fact that when asked, you don't answer. if that's the case, i need to ask what the delay is? clearly, things aren't working out all that well for you doing what your doing now. if you want to get better and you want things to change, you need to do something to make it happen. like einstein said, "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." that seems to be what you're doing, here.

just since you've started posting here, how many different issues have you been concerned about... and how many have you actually had? what are the chances you're right this time? probably (definitely) pretty small. especially right now.

I'm getting counselling now and I know only I can stop this it's just really really hard

it definitely is! glad you're going to therapy. have you learned anything that's been beneficial?

are you someone that googles your symptoms or researches the diseases you're concerned about?

You would more than likely know if you were Schizophrenia...googling your symptoms would be the last thing on your mind.

not trying to sound like a know it all because I'm definitely not, but having worked with schizophrenics for years, most of them really didn't have any idea there was something wrong until they were medicated and in better control of their symptoms. what they're experiencing is very real to them so they don't generally know something is wrong. initially, it's often friends, family or employers that notice something isn't right. even then, many never really fully grasp their diagnosis and continue to struggle, even with the knowledge they're ill.

Yeah I'm stupid for googling symptoms and stuff and the amount of tests I've had and doctors I see I'm sure something would show

...not to mention the ambulance rides and emergency room visits!

Google is the devil, buddy! it's alcohol for alcoholics! you will never get better if you can't stay off of the internet! trying to treat your HA while searching the interwebs is seriously like an alcoholic trying to quit drinking while drinking.

I so understand what you are saying. But deep down when something is going on with us regardless of what it is.. we know. We don't want to face it at all. I have a sister that deals with Schizo...that's why I made that statement. Its not you being a know it all, you just know what you know and I appreciate your input.
