21 years, thats a long time to live with this. im sorry you feel so alone, but you're not alone. i dont know what you feel or hear, but there are doctors out there and therapists who do care and want to help. if its schizoprenia that you have, these symptoms could be part of it, either way, there is support and treatment for this. schizophrenia is a disease that can cause you to see, hear, smell, feel,taste and touch things that are not really there, dont be scared, lots of people have it and its vert treatable. please see a specialist like a neurologist or psychiatrist, write down all of your questions and concerns before you go, then take your time and tell this doctor everything. you are not alone, i know what you are going through is scary, dont be afraid, im here for you. let me know how everything goes. you're in my prayers.
There are people out there that truely care about you, hang in there and let people help you. My Mom is going through the same struggle as you are and its terrible. Its tough to see her living this nightmare and I so want to help her but she won't let me and keeps saying there is nothing wrong with her.
daughter, my heart is with you, ive seen this alot of this in my line of work, its harder on the family than the patient because the patient doesn’t realize that anything is wrong with them. the hallucinations are real to them, no matter how hard you try, you can’t convince them that they are not real,if you try, they think you just dont believe them, its so frustrating. be patient with them, dont agree with them, just tell them clamly that you dont see or hear what they do. i am very close to a person that thought heard voices, she couldnt see anybody so she thought they were living under her house. she got so bad that the police had to take her to the hospital for treatment, shes been on risperdol for about a year and no more voices, it takes the med about 6 weeks to start working, she thought the “people under the house” left while she was in the hospital, she will never believe that it was the medicine working because she still doesn’t believe shes sick. its a chore to keep her taking the meds.stay strong and take time for yourself, good luck, im here for you.
I can hear what you say and some what understand your position. I have dealt with hearing and seeing things for a very long time and not being diagnosed for it for years. I spent years beleiving things were happening to me and once some one talked to me about getting help it even took the therapist about a year before he talked about schizophrenia. Even on medication I still deal with my world and the real one and struggle with it too. I have been given tools to try to convience myself some people are not there and can not hurt me, and some times it works others times you will never convience me.
So different situation but understand the feeling no one hears what you are trying to say or beleiving you. But you have dealt with it for a long time and need to try to work on it daily and get on proper medication that will help some. You can not do it alone. I am sure at times it feels like it is you against the world out there and that is a big battle for one person to have to deal with.
You are not alone
