I guess while this applies to my whole family, I’m mainly talking about my mom. I’m a teenager and a couple months ago, before a routine general check-up with my doctor, I told my mom I’d been hallucinating and asked her opinion on whether or not I should tell the doctors. We agreed to forget about it for a while and take action in a couple weeks.
At this point it’s been several months. My family hasn’t tried to get me help, and they’ve all had mixed reactions. My mom has essentially been really open and cruel about thinking I’m crazy. Something small will come up, a couple times I’ve slipped up and asked about things that they couldn’t see/hear, and she’ll look completely disgusted with me.
I’ve asked my dad about his side of the family (he had a schizoaffective brother) and he said I seemed alright though he didn’t completely deny stuff when I brought up how my brother and mom have talked to me.
My mom’s said to my face that I’m mentally ill, crazy, hears voices, days away from suicide, etc, etc...
How do I deal with this? I know just off what I’ve put here, I don’t sound super normal, and this is only the information my family knows about. I’ve been though more stuff on top of it, but don’t mention it to them.
Even when I feel mature and mostly healthy, they’re always making me wonder if I’m just lying to myself and it’s really obvious that I’m sick.
