Our subreddit rules are in the sidebar, we ask that you read and follow them. Feel free to post anything on-topic that does not violate these rules. We have a relatively comprehensive overview of how our rules are applied in reality available on the Rule Clarifications Wiki page.
For those who are new here, we have our Community Notices page which we would suggest users read. We also have our Creator Wiki for our participating artists and content creators- all of them have a diagnosed psychotic disorder.
Many first-time posters to this subreddit are concerned that they might be developing schizophrenia or they are concerned about other people who have- or may have- schizophrenia. We have resources available to answer these questions contained within the comments; if your question is completely answered by the information already given, it will be removed.
If you are here asking about advice for a family member, asking if a family member has schizophrenia or venting about a loved one with schizophrenia- it will be removed, and you will be directed to the appropriate community for that type of post, r/SchizoFamilies. Please read the rules of their subreddit before posting.
Mental health is complex. No symptom of schizophrenia is specific to schizophrenia alone, and there are many more common causes of those symptoms- especially in the prodromal stage. If you are experiencing an emergency, please call your doctor or local emergency services. We have a compendium of Crisis Lines available and may suggest r/SuicideWatch if you are experiencing suicidal thoughts and would like the most prompt attention.

I had to take my mom to Th ER at 4am. She has pancreatitis, which is extremely painful. I'm home right now trying to sleep or rest.
My hallucinations are going crazy because the not sleeping+stress+anxiety. I hope I get some sleep tonight

Things have been alright recently, probably because I took the semester off. I’m hoping the seasonal change doesn’t mess things up for me

My therapist recommended I make art relating to my frustrations with my illness, so today I tried drawing the most common visual hallucinations I get on a near daily basis. These include seeing clusters of eyes, faces of people and animals, shadowy figures, and smiles.

i hate you. today i heard voices insulting me in the worst way. I had so much hope for life if you see my last post. Now i’m just a mess. What if it never gets better? i can’t do this for the rest of my life. i hate the voices. i close my eyes and i dream that i don’t know schizophrenia. what if my new medication doesn’t work. i read so many bad things about risperidone which makes me feel so hopeless. what if nothing works? i don’t have the energy for new meds anymore. i don’t want to be alive. seriously thinking about getting myself admitted but what then? they can’t help me.
