Schizo

What are some signs of schizophrenia?

I think I might be showing signs of it. Or is there any way to find out?

EDIT: sorry about to threads i didnt think the other on actually posted.

 

Only way to find out is to get properly diagnosed by a doctor of psycology.
I'm pretty sure people with psycosis don't actually know that they are crazy.. so you probably don't have it.

 

schizophrenia doesnt really exist. There merely people that live in or interact with alternate dimensions.

 

well first off you have your age ( in most cases early mid 20s) before it shows up. does it run in your family? these are just a few starters. please talk with a Dr. a shrink would be best, but please by all means search and read as much as you can. shrinks, like most Dr. have so little time to talk with and learn about YOU. 20 min to an hour is short, write notes of questions you want to ask. ITS YOUR LIFE be proactive it will make the Shrink appointment or any Dr. appointment useful for you as well as the Dr. knowledge = power.. good luck to you. peace to you, dierdre

 

there a four types of the disease. THey have an age rangewith some types not showing until in your thirties. the best way is through your doc who would refer you to a psych they would probably get you to do a couple of tests such as a MMDA and a personality test. these are just multiple qyestions although life at your age can suck bigtime i would rather be 40 than in my 20's

 

Exactly. It exists so that Big Parma can make money, and human beings can be kept brainwashed and in the dark. Don't let them steal your freedom with drugs!

 

schizophrenia is not a condition i wish for anyone,nor is it a condition that one wishes on self. sadly its the lack of wanting to take ones medications,that leads to self-destruction to self or others.if they felt better from medications,it wouldnt be the biggest issue on a day to day med-cycle battle.

 

"schizophrenia doesnt really exist. There merely people that live in or interact with alternate dimensions".

I would tend to agree, but still, if you are going to go mad without meds, why not take them?

I just found this site for you. Hmm, i have quite a few of these symptoms myself. Oh well, hope it helps you. And you know what they say? those who think they are mad are generally the most normal of all.

 

Cannabis can cause schizophrenia in people your age because your brain is still developing. If you're showing signs, it would be best IMO to wait until you're at least 18 - 25 would be safest because this is the age your brain becomes fully developed. Antidepressants are not recommended for people under 18 for the same reason, and are used in caution in 18-24 year-olds because they are more at risk of suicide than people age 25+. It's better to go without cannabis now than develop schizophrenia, possibly having to take antipsychotics long-term.

 

Weed causes schizophrenia?? Oh shit.... That just makes me more worried because the chances are better now..... A LOT better.

 

And even then, if you've shown signs of it in the past then maybe you should consider that its not the drug for you.

 

So the voices told me

Just stop smoking it mate, you'll be ok.

 

Haha, schizos don't exist? Thats bullshit.

 

No.

 

Do they have the mighty bush in US?

"Captain cabinates, trapped in cabinates!"

Unfortunatly, this time mate, we ARE laughing at you.

 

CC, someone I know smoked a lot of weed at your age and now is taking atypical-antipsychotics and antidepressants daily - that really isn't much fun. Don't fuck your brain up.

 

What?

I dont get it.....

 

Don't believe everything that people say on some internet forums. Cannabis DOSEN'T cause schizophrenia, but it can trigger it if you have it underlying. But way or another you would still get schitzophrenia smoked or not, like anything stressful can trigger it.

 

^I'm surprised it took this long for somebody to say it...

weed can't cause "schizophrenia/insanity/being isolated from so called normal society", all it can do is reveal it earlier than fate might intend.

but I don't really believe in schizophrenia anyway...
what I believe is higher consciousness + insecurities/fear = "schizophrenia"
