I think I have some sort of mental problem, but I can't tell what it is. I'm dx with schizophrenia, but I think it's wrong. It's something else. Something that can't be explained by anyone or known because it doesn't exist.
I don't want to do anything. I don't want to go to school anymore. I don't want to find work. I feel no one wants me. Well, it's actually true. I don't understand why people reject me, I can't understand it at all. I think... I reject other people before they can even reject me. But the opposite is also true. People rejected me all my life. I stay away from most people, I don't have any friends, or anyone besides my immediate family. I just want to go to the fields and die.
No one can possibly understand me because I don't really exist. I don't have feelings, or emotions, or thoughts, or anything at all. My family, I sometimes wonder if they're my 'real' family. I can't be sure of anything in this world. That's the real problem. I can't be sure of anything, and when I'm not sure I get scared.
Everything is a contradiction to me. My mind is a mess. Sure, I can write this out but that doesn't mean it's true. Nothing is true. Nothing.
I guess that's all for now... I'm sorry...

This makes sense to me. My sister thinks very similar to you, and she does have mild schizophrenia. This may help you.
It is proven that people who have schizophrenia have a smaller parietal lobe. A portion of this controls your spatial awareness. At times it can make you feel detached, unable to attach reasoning to things. It can make things feel unreal, like your own body, your emotions. It can even make you feel separated from your own body at times.
The important thing is that you talk to your psychiatrist about how you feel, even if you have to print out what you said here. There are medications that can bridge the gap and make you feel that all of these things are real. They can help you really experience the things you are missing.
