There is none, except perhaps a tendency towards substance abuse.

And you expect us to listen to you just because you've been through some tough times? Listen buddy, everyone goes through those tough times and a lot of people go on to lead respective lives, so don't sit here and say how you've been to hell and back and are a savior because your not.

I have had problems with this as well, mostly at night too, and i'll hear things that are threatening... I haven't really figured it out, but i just try to absorb myself into a comedy movie or i'll talk to one of my friends on the phone... anything to get my mind off it, although it is very hard. Good luck, really. I understand what you mean about the pills making you "blah", too...

ya thanks a bunch, i've been trying to listen to music w/ headphones; it's still hard to distinguish but i am really trying to avoid it.

I recommended she see a psychiatrist. She debatably meets the criteria of the DSM for a Schizoaffective mood disorder. This generation's atypical anti-psychotics tend to avoid some of the previous generation's negative side affects (particularly tremors). Which are of course still much metter than many of the negative symptoms that become permanent with the disease, but can be avoided completely if treated early enough.

thank you too. i have seen a psychiatrist before but am thinking of going back. supposively this new psychiatrist is not the type of person to force pills down my throst at the first sight of anything which is good.

spooner, think you're a great help & very intelligent. it's wonderful that you are majoring in pol sci; i thought about doing that for a while but am now on my way towards a b.a. in peace & conflict studies. best of luck!

You're not schizophrenic, of course, I can't know for sure. But I had many hallucinations, I was bipolar, I wasn't eating or sleeping and I was stressed out, those three things are the main causes of hallucinations.

Also after someone important to me died,this sort of thing happened. If you'd like to talk more about this feel free to message me.

Being schizophrenic was also my biggest fear, but I don't worry about it anymore. And I don't have hallucinations or anything anymore, and I'm definately not on any drugs.
