Since I can remember I have been an anxious person (even as a child). Now I take meds for that but even with them, I feel like they act only superficially and deep inside I'm still worrying about a lot of things. Recently I was told I have Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder though I don't do repetitive things. I instead have repetitive thoughts about hurting myself and sometimes I cannot think of anything else and end up doing them. Can this be considered as OCD? If an anti-psychotic medication (Risperdal) helps me very well with the thoughts and the compulsion, then it means I'm also schizophrenic? I know these questions should be made to my psychiatrist, but I would really like to hear other opinions...
