Scizophrenia Question


20 years ago 0 6 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I was just talking to my Gramma tonight about the possibility of me having scizophrenia. Her son (my uncle) had it and I know it's hereditary and I've been worrying about it for as long as I can remember feeling "not right." I'm pretty sure it's just the anxiety speaking tho. I really don't think it's anything to worry about. If you start getting delusions and hallucinations for no reason then I would go see your doctor but until then I would just attribute it to symptoms of anxiety and/or depression. You could develop it, anyone can but it's highly unlikely. My uncle had it which means I have roughly a 7% chance of getting it so the odds would be considerably less for you. Until you have a diagnosis...Don't Worry About It. That's the advice that I've decided to accept into my life. Good luck.
