Schisophrenia problem

[Morell]

We have some people here knowledgable on this matter, so I wanted to ask for some good list of symptoms or what to look for, so one can have a guide to check if they are or are not Schisophrenic. I'm well aware that autodiagnosis is very uneasy, but I think it would still help to have some knowledge on the matter... both for selfreflection as well as when considering other poeple.

Because "you hear voices, you should consider the possibility that you might have Schisophrenia" is kindly said, but so unconvincing and shallow that it hurts.

So here I ask, can someone give us some good info on this matter? When we summon spirits, it gets quite close to this issue and sometimes things overlap...

I remember the following.

In my family there's no history of schizophrenia. Some very distant relative abused strange medicine and ended up getting the gift of madness though. Took several decades.

The spiritual practices can cause a mess. I mentioned it before in some other posts. I had some scenarios a decade or so ago, some friends had the same. The cases were very similar.

How to summarize it...
Imagine that you have always felt normal, no problems but suddenly you feel strange thoughts coming from elsewhere. You are able to understand they are not your own. You might also feel strangely clogged and disconnected from the reality. There seems to be something inside you, perhaps you sense it in the spiritual engine. It wasn't there before. The reality seems different, there's a sense of having a filter between you and the reality. About like some weird delay and a pair of sunglasses. Something is horribly wrong. I remember a sunglasses case, everything was filtered and delayed. The perception was distorted.

You realize something is wrong, any doctor would give you a diagnose and consider you mad. Prescribe something against it and hope it solves the problem but no it wouldn't. Perhaps you start thinking about the previous practices and suddenly you understand that you went too far with some invocations and didn't quite do what you were supposed to. Maybe just maybe you invoked something into yourself...? Maybe that amazing random tutorial you found by a user Promage69420blazeit wasn't so good after all, even though it seemed great.
Maybe you did excessive spiritual practices and caused yourself to become too open. In that open state you did something weird. Some sort of a thing noticed your openness and the easy access. It came through and attached itself. You became visible on their radars.
Your feel thoughts, negativity, aggression, perhaps voices, they aren't your own. Something is awfully wrong. People who hear about it think you have lost your mind. They don't want to do anything with you, you could become isolated. Depression waves attack you, the negative entity wants your emotions. You get an idea to abuse substances to switch off the problems, all planted by the entity so that it could weaken you and gain a higher control. They'd be happy to have a feast over something so vulnerable. To further isolate you and devour as much as possible, perhaps use you for something.

With a better understanding you understand that you must seek help or figure out a way to get rid of the problem. You understand that this is a huge issue but 99% of the people can't understand it.

The longer it lasts the worse it can become. There's a certain level of mind control. A downward spiral.

When you get rid of the problem everything turns normal, just like before. All the symptoms completely disappear. Not a single sign anymore. No filter between the reality, no weird thoughts, no depression, no despair, nothing wrong. Night turns into a day. All normal.

I'm not going to give a list of symptoms. I know a lot but the problem is there's not just one disorder that can cause hallucinations. Schizophrenia is very similar to a lot of other mental health disorders. Bipolar disorder for example can come with delusions and hallucinations.

Basically I'm writing to say is that if you hear voices and think you may have schizophrenia it may not be. The key thing about schizophrenia is often the person has no awareness of the disorder until they have treatment. They do not know they are hallucinating. You often need another person to get you into treatment. If you know you hallucinating it's likely another disorder or from other factors such as occult stuff.

If you have auditory hallucinations which are triggered under certain duress, mania or anxiety, this is often associated with Bipolar Disorder. Mania is a trigger, which most of these should be seen as a trigger effect and avoidable.

Schizophrenia, unlike Bipolar Disorder, is constant. Some activities can trigger certain effects to heighten Schizophrenia but Schizophrenia itself is always active in one form or another. Schizophrenia is infamous for creating a fog, or fuzzy mental faculty which can cause issues even with motor function and thought. Often in this state, communication is literally mangled and with zero clarity. The person is under consistent delusion, internally/mentally. This is where hallucinations, delusional surroundings and auditory sensations press in, and unlike Bipolar Disorder, this is a constant, lifelong issue- unless you are receiving constant, lifelong treatment. Paranoid Schizophrenia is a consistently intense bout of hypersensitive delusional state which is almost self-inducing mental state of caution due to past or current sensations of fear/terror.

If you are having questions, the chances are you are not Schizophrenic simply because you, yourself are asking.
You may simply have a trigger under certain stresses, which the stress may not be a negative thing. Euphoria can often bring about auditory, sensual, or sometimes visual delusion.
