Recognising faces I don't know.. seeing friends in strangers
Hi. I am not sure if this is the right place to post either. i have not yet been diagnosed but I am really starting to feel that it is possible i am somewhere on the spectrum given my symptoms.
I have had a problem in general throughout my life recognising people and thinking i am seeing people ik now but it is not them. Although recently it has got extremely bad. I am suffering with quite severe depression and anxiety and i believe i have done so since early teenage years (I am now 21). Recently, 2 or 3 times per hour i am seeing people walk past, thinking it is someone i know from my past (it could be years ago) and its not them! I am getting so worried that it may be schizophrenia or something like that?
But i have started to considered now that maybe i have pda. Can anybody here help me? I have booked an appointmenet with my doctor but the earliest avaiable is in 10 days! I have realised that the depression and anxiety may be a cause of not being diagnosied?
