Something’s not right

Schizophrenia.

PeppapigContributor

Schizophrenia.

I believe in invisible people and they’re making me say and do things I would never say or do. There tripping me over and walking me into walls like when my shoulder hits the wall. I tried to make sense of it so I googled invisible people do they exist and the military has made an invisible wall. I come to the conclusion that there's an invisible suit as well. Some days I tell myself no ones here your truly alone but I just don't feel truly alone. I'm also having a hard time believing I'm a schizophrenic. Is there anyone on the forum here who has schizophrenia and can relate? I also wouldn't mind anyone's advice or support.

Re: Schizophrenia.

Welcome to the forums @Peppapig ,

Thank you for sharing what's been going on for you. It sounds like you have so much insight into what's happening and is ready to do something about it.

Whilst I don't have experience of schizophrenia, myself, there are many others here who do.

I hope they will be able to share their experiences with you and that you get the support and connection you deserve while on the forums.

Re: Schizophrenia.

During psychosis, often, no. Delusions blur with reality @Peppapig . Hence the earlier she can get support, the better.

Re: Schizophrenia.

Hey @Peppapig welcome to the forums, I'm glad you're here!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I don't have schizophrenia but I have bipolar disorder and have experienced psychosis and delusions. I am stable now and have since come to terms with it all. I do understand what it's like to have your reality questioned and the feelings of uncertainty, you are not alone.

If you do a search for 'Schizophrenia' within the forums you'll probably find a lot of information and people who you can connect with and relate to 😊

Re: Schizophrenia.

I have Schizophrenia to I just say that you can have psychosis and delusional thought, but sometimes they can be real. No, everything is obviously delicious. But the biggest take I wanted to point out you have wonderful kids and you had kids before you knew you have mental health issues so try to build on relationship with ur kids to be happy little things matter more then anything be happy with yourself and life you have come so far in life don't let the schizophrenic get you now that's not fair and yes I have been on multiple medication as well and all of them work I find a lot of them cause psychosis and side-effects as well if you're on it for a very long time I have had Schizophrenia since young child I'm 20 years old now so I've had to deal with it and find someone who's a good counsellor or psychiatrist who understands, and doesn't put sigma around your mental health and sometimes no delusional thinking there's a law between schizophrenia delusional thinking and just delusional make sure your feeling safe and clam and happy you deserve that
