Hi. I would really appreciate some advice, because I'm not sure if I should seek medical attention. I had some symptoms similar to paranoid schizophrenia when I was much younger, but I am 24 years old now and they haven't been apparent for many years. When I was six years old, I thought that my teacher and my father were conspiring against me by planting video cameras in my home to watch me. I was certain that every person I came into contact with could read my mind. This stressful level of paranoia eventually led to a hallucination that lasted for about a minute, in which other students accused me of committing a crime. In my teenage years, when I found myself in extremely stressful situations, I experienced something similar to voices in my head, where I felt like a voice in my head was eager to say something, but couldn't get it out. I never heard any words actually spoken. Ever since then, I have felt fine. I don't want to make a big deal out of this or spend money I don't have on a therapist, but I'm curious as to why this happened to me at such an early age and why the symptoms have seemingly disappeared (since everyone seems to think schizophrenia lasts for life). Could it be I'm just a strange case? If anyone has any thoughts on my situation, please feel free to share. Thanks. |

I went through the same thing. I heard God speak, I felt others knew what, where and how I was going, thinking and feeling. But that happened for about 3 years, and now im mostly free of that. Sometimes I experience it but not very often
