Schizophrenia is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a mental disorder characterized by impairments in the perception of reality and by significant social dysfunction. Untreated schizophrenia is typically characterized by demonstrating disorganized thinking and experiencing delusions or auditory hallucinations.
Sometimes i become obssessed with something that isnt actually real. I will think over and over the thought for several days, sometimes lasting a month. For example, this time last year i was convinced i was the virgin mary, and i would tell my therapist, boyfriend, teacher this. And i could not think differently. I really strongly believed it. And no-one could tell me differently. Is this a delusion or OCD?
I also have become obssessed with the word psychotic over the last 18months. I sometimes think i am psychotic, but my child therapist when i was in that team said its anxiety. But i knew that wasnt true. I had all the symptoms of a psychotic episode. I think i was misdiagnosed.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I keep having evil thoughts and I obsess over them. It isn't who I am though, they are just thoughts.
Remember just because you have the thoughts does not mean you are psychotic. They are just thoughts and it doesn't mean that it's you.
