I don't work and have a hard time socializing. So I kind of fit that part of the criteria. The only thing is I've stopped most delusional thinking (I think at least) since starting anti-psychotics. Not all but I catch myself sometimes and am usually able to immediately ground myself. I guess they work well enough for some symptoms, just not the hallucinations. The reason the doctors call me high-functioning is because of how I speak. They don't care that I can't hold a job or that I've got school coming up and no idea how I'm going to handle it.

I've had an EEG and an MRI to rule out seizures and brain damage (I've had many concussions). I don't really want the sz diagnosis. I just want to know what's happening to me rather than being left in the dark and forgotten about, which is how I'm feeling right now. The idea of finding new doctors terrifies me because I don't know how they'll treat my other conditions. I have so many problems and I haven't slept in a while so I might not be making much sense. Apologies.
