Hey guys, I'm new to this forum thing so hopefully I'm in the right place! So basically about 6 months ago I had a panic attack after reading symptoms of schizophrenia and after this attack I felt like I wasn't in reality anymore and nothing was real. I then had about 2/3 more panic attacks where I went to the doctor and he said that I had PTSD. The reason he said this was two years ago my mum was brutally attacked by a schizophrenic person and he said that might of had an effect on me. I didn't think it did as I did cry for number of days but it didn't replay in my brain at all!
Anyway, for the next couple of months I had bad health anxiety where I thought I had schizophrenia and a brain tumour as I kept searching the symptoms to see if I had any of them. About a month ago I was in New York on a field trip with university and I was in the queue for the Statue of Liberty when all of a sudden I had the thought of

I'm guessing from what you've posted that you've been to a few psychiatrists. Have you tried talking this through with a therapist to get to the bottom of it? Maybe you are a psychopath. Maybe you're not. It could be a few different things. I think you should start with a pdoc evaluation and tell them what you've said here and then move on to a tdoc if needed. I'm sorry you're feeling this way. I'm sure it's very unnerving for you. Good luck and best wishes.

I agree that you need to see a therapist. I'm sure it's upsetting for all these things to be happening to you and not know why. We aren't able to diagnose, but to my way of thinking a psychopath wouldn't be worried about being a psychopath. Please see a professional to get yourself helped out. We are here to support you in your treatment as fellow "strugglers" and friends, and we care. Let us know how things go. Okay?

I think the attack on your mother did have an affect on you, and you might feel guilty over it. Thus the intrusive thoughts. It was a very truamatic event for you. Please work with a Therapist/doctor on this. There are more feelings that you need to work on around this.

Now it's time to get help for the anxiety and OCD, then. I know they make people's lives miserable.

I don't think a psychopath would be worried about being a psychopath, and you obviously do have emotions because you've gotten upset and anxious. Intrusive thoughts come in many forms and will likely get better if you get help for the anxiety.

A psychopath has a callous disregard for others. A lack of empathy is a major marker. While you may have a disorder, rest easy that psychopathy is likely not it.

Yes I know but I'm having bad thoughts and I actually think I'm evil. Don't know what to do! Thanks for replying though I know I'm not a sociopath but just can't shake these thoughts
