Does anyone out there know if there is sympthoms of schizophrenia related to OCD, and if that could be the cause in talking a quiz, i was score a 10. And the scores are 1thorough 98. The answer was that i might have early signs of esquizofrenia. Only because i answer as the worst when i was asked (i cant trust what im thinking because i dont know if its real or not).I answered that question based on my irrational thoughts. And im panic right now thinking maybe i will have that disorder as well.

" well, i am not a shrink and i do not know you, but i do know OCD and anxiety/fear VERY well. I would be willing to bet your fear is getting to you and you are googling other mental, illnesses you fear you might have. Forget it. Just concentrate on your OCD because it is your fear, not your healthy mind, that is looking for other possible mental illnesses.

Btw, if 98 is the highest score and you scored a 10 using your fearful thoughts, doesnt that prove to you that you have ZERO chance of being schizophrenic?

Hope you feel better and are getting COMPETENT professional help. "

" Try not to judge too much just on a quiz. If your worried, talk to a professional about it and search what your worried about online and see how many of the sypmtoms you do have.
What I know of Schizophrenia is that it is other people's voices in the mind, not your own thought voice- as OCD is- and people experience hallucinations too.

I relate to how you are worrying about this, as I did have a time where I worried about the same thing a while back- I don't have it though.

Good luck x "
