Someone please help me or tell me you've been here and came through this. I literally feel nothing like my old self. Don't think the same, have the same emotions, don't feel the same, have crazy thoughts, random thoughts. I really think I've lost myself for good. I do have a psychiatrist and a t that I talk to. But I don't think they get it when I tell them all of this. They say it's anxiety OCD and depression but I've had all that since I was 16, now I'm 22 and I'm in the age range for schizophrenia and I was so scared of that for the past two months and now I feel like I'm there. Idk why but im just not normal anymore. I just want my life back. It's got to the point where I don't care what I have. I just want it to happen, get better or get worse so it can be treated as soon as possible. I'm so tired of all of this I can't deal with it much anymore. I feel like I'm just hanging on by a thread and I'm just gonna snap. I hope someone has felt this before. Help!

Ipod1, I'm sorry you're feeling so bad.

I think if your mood and thoughts change profoundly, it can be very scary and we might feel sometimes as if we are a different person - and usually not a person we want to be! Yes, I've had scary thoughts and emotions can become very overwhelming when they become dark and one-sided.

I wouldn't be able to say for sure whether you have or don't have schizophrenia, especially because I don't know very much about what thoughts and emotions you have.
However, I can relate as I've mentioned above and I don't have schizophrenia.

Keep describing your symptoms to your doctor and therapist.

I don't know whether this helps, but I feel maybe it feels at least a little bit better when you know you're not all alone in this!

Post as much as you like and I do hope that you and your doctor / therapist will come up with a way forward very soon.

Hugs from Shadow-world

Thank you very much. I feel like I don't have anywhere to turn. I'm just going to try and make a journal of this and bring it in to them because I can't hardly describe the way I feel. One day I'll get better no matter what it is.
Thanks for this!

((((( Ipod1 ))))) Making a journal is a good idea, sharing it with your therapist is also good. If for some reason you don't get anything written down in your journal, you might want to print your post. I have taken my posts to my therapist as it can be hard to write again.

You can turn this way any time you like. Good luck and may we all feel better soon.

Hi ,
I feel your pain , it was almost as if i wrote it myself, only i dont have a Dr. right now and honestly am scared to think i have to wait til Feb. to see a therapist and March to talk to a psyciatrist ( sp? srry) I know its an awful feeling and scarier to feel like your alone, but ..your not...there are a lot people out there that are feeling like you do. I know it may not help cuz its only you going through the feelings, emotions at the time, at least thats how i feel. I am truely sorry for how u feel , i do undertstand...After finding this site i discovered i not only have depression, anxiety but " borderline personality disorder" and adult A.D.D - I hate to label and self- diagnosis but...It is what it is... I am glad howevr that i found this site so i can at least have others to talk to about how i am feeling, etc.....i hope you get some relief to know u r not the only one.......i hope tomorrow brings u a better day..................
Thanks for this!

I can't thank you guys enough. This is so hard. I hope we all get through our struggles and live very Long healthy lives. All of you have a merry Christmas. I hope we can just for one day feel good through the holidays instead of obsessing about how we feel and let "reality" back in. Even though it's very hard to do so. God bless you all
Thanks for this!
