I used to be schitzophrenic, but we're ok now.

How many of you have Schitzophrenia?
-
Fatigue is a possible side-effect, but of course it could be for other reasons.Anonymous, that does sound like schizophrenia.
-
or depression

I would like to correct both of you. My son was diagnosed with schitzophrenia at age of 5 yo. 1. schitzophrenia affects 1 in every 100 adults stats on children are not yet availible. 2. you do not have to have MPD (multiple personality disorder) to have schitzophrenia However, you can have both illnesses at same time. my son does not have MPD. But now to real reason I came to this site is to find support from those who really have it... you have to be diagnosed to know you really have it, otherwise its just a feeling not a reality.

My brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia. It was hell. He was a great guy until he was about 16, then he started to get really antisocial. My room was next to his and late at night i could hear him talking to someone. Not stuff like 'Burn them burn them all' but like he was talking to a friend or at least someone he knew. I told my mom and at about 17 and a half he went to see a doctor about it. They put him on some sort of medication and from then on he hasnt been the same. Hes been depressed nearly all the time, and he doesnt seem to have any motivation. His academic work deteriorated and he got declined from college. He living with a friend at the moment. Schizophrenia is no joke. It ruined his life. I just wanted you to know that.

Sorry for not posting in some time, thanks for that, Anonymous. Some people seem to think it's some big joke, but in all truth, it's just as serious as any other medical problem, maybe less deadly, but just as serious.

talking to yourself is a sign of schizophrenia?
-
everybody tends to talk to themselves once in a while

Well, it depends on what the conversation is, if it's "I need to do this.....that...", it's generally safe, but if it's "I hate her, man. I'm thinking of suicide." or "They will all die!!" that could be bad.
