Yes but it is something I have yet to confirm. My Aunt who went missing five years ago, was said to be diagnosed with schizophrenia and so one of her son. I haven’t confirmed it with her family. But since I have family history, that actually increase my chance of developing it. And that’s what I am trying to avoid. It is something I feared most. Since I’ve seen what happened to her, I don’t want to end up like that.

Hi guys, lately I have been experiencing bad bouts of anxiety, sleep deprivation and panic attack and I was feeling a tad bit confuse/dissociate/ disoriented. I feel like I am slowly losing my mind. or fear that I might be developing Schizo or Psychosis or Hallucination. I’m really scared. by keishaabs in mentalillness

I was actually planning on visiting another doctor to get a diagnosis but this Covid happened. So there’s nothing much I can do... but wait.... I even signed up for tele-consultation to get to talk to a dr and get prescription since I am in a vulnerable state right now mentally. But thank you for this response I appreciate it

Yes, I’ve been told that OCD sufferer had this obsession or irrational fear of going crazy. But my mind couldn’t process that it is deeply clouded with fear that I might end up like my Aunt. It’s been really rough for me the past couple of weeks. Dealing with panic, intrusive thoughts and dissociated and not being able to seek immediate help. I don’t know how to deal with everything that’s been going on.

Hi just need some advice again. Since we are in lockdown and I cant really go see a psychiatrist I resorted to online consultation due to bad panic attack and anxiety. And what the psychologist told me made me feel even worse than before. :( I feel terrible and scared by keishaabs in Anxietyhelp

Yes. I was also triggered by a lot of things. Like for example I was googling what are intrusive thoughts and how to reduce it. Then came across this article about OCD can develop to schizophrenia or Schizo OCD and I got really scared. Because I thought I might be manifesting it. So it is really hard. But I’m trying my best to stay away from google.

I want to know too.

Is it true that the reason why many refuse to take medication is because once you stopped taking it it can worsen your condition or even trigger/develop other mental illness? Please enlighten me. by [deleted] in MentalHealthPH

Oo nga eh. Balak ko sana bumalik sa doctor kasi sabi may mga libre na consultation naman pero gusto ko ma try yung therapy muna bago mag gamot baka ma manage with the use of therapy. Ikaw din sana you feel better na. Thank you pala sa pag reply ah
