I don't think I'm schizophrenic though. (But then again, if I would have seen a psych at that age, I would certainly have been diagnos... |

| I've never actually been diagnosed with tourettes but I've read about it and watched Youtube videos by people with it and I am convinced I have it. But still, I have this fear that the doctors will just tell me I'm wrong, I don't have tourettes but they don't know what I have. It's probably because... |

(Such as the CNT-FAI's revolution during the Spanish Civil War.) The abolition of private property, automation of l... |

| 1: The story sounds like Phoebe in Wonderland, you may want to switch it up a bit. 2: Childhood Schizophrenia (Very-Early Onset Schizophrenia) is much more likely to have visual hallucinations than adult onset schizophrenia. 3: I believe about 40-60% of children with VEOS, meet the criteria for ASD ... |

It's not a problem, I was just pointing out that your behavior is very typical of OCD. |

| I have very strong parasitophobia (Fear of Parasites.) It's actually why I'm vegan. I can't go outside without shoes, as I'll panic and be convinced I'll get worm eggs in my feet. |

| I think I fake even my physical conditions that have been diagnosed and confirmed by multiple doctors. Hell, I pretty much can't say anything about myself without doubting it, but I've got this problem pretty badly. Every time I have a moment when I don't feel as anxious as usual (which is rare) an... |

| That IS actually a common OCD intrusive thought/anxiety. I have it myself, constantly afraid I've lied about things, or am faking my Tourette's. It's very common. |

| Anxiety is usually about daily stuff. Fear of embarrassment, failure, etc. Often in the realm of rationality. Usually ego-syntonic. OCD has intrusive thoughts. Things like sexual images, (straight people worrying they are gay) blaspheme, violent acts, etc. They are extremely uncomfortable, and extre... |
