The vanishing

[MonotoneMan]

everywhere I look, I see things that aren’t there, I hear things that no one else hears. Am I crazy? My skin itches anytime I talk about it, or think about it.

have you spoken to your doctor about this?

[MonotoneMan in reply to LazyXrayEyes2255]

they will take me away from my family if I do

[LazyXrayEyes2255 in reply to MonotoneMan]

No there are medication that you can take to manage

[MonotoneMan in reply to LazyXrayEyes2255]

I’ve already gone to the doctor about suicidal thoughts

[MonotoneMan in reply to MonotoneMan]

I was told that if I show up again for another mental health problem that don’t need to take me into a psych ward.

[LazyXrayEyes2255 in reply to MonotoneMan]

Maybe see someone private rather than usual doctor

No your not crazy. What you are dealing with is called psychosis. I've dealt with mine since I was young. I have schizoeffective bipolar disorder. I have both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. It will be ok. Just find a psychiatrist who can give you meds to helpTake care

Only ignorant people call it crazy. We are not crazy because we see things that are not there. I have seen things a little that are not there. For example: I thought I saw the dog I had growing up wander around the house a few times now even though she has been dead for years. I thought I saw the cat I had several years but he is dead now too. I even thought I saw paw prints on my bed a few times from him. I thought I saw my dead Grandma too a couple times. But she also has been dead for years. Sometimes I think I see other things too such as flashes or light or other weird occasional weird things. But it just means that I see weird things or what some may call hallucinations. I now take medication for it and am just fine.
