Mental Problems, What do you think?

Question

Well I keep to myself and my parents recently been sending me to a psychiatrist for the last year because they think I behave abnormally my father is a psychiatrist too but he'd rather not treat his own son. But my doctor told me I have a chemical imbalance in the brain and I currently have a Schizoid dissorder (which is completely avoiding being with other people) but as i develop further into adolesents my condition will get worse till i block off away from my family and most people, and i will most likely develop schizophrenia when the imbalance gets worse or like a type of psychosis (which means i will be completely crazy). I don't feel crazy now but im scared and i completely refuse taking drugs to make me normal, cause then im not really myself am i?

Answer 1

50 years ago you would be called a recluse.  Now they will pump you full of drugs because you want to not mix with people.  please please do not let them give you drugs.  you arean individual not a frigging robot. my advice, find something you love doing and live with that, go for this every minute of your life.  **** everyone else, you are a free spirit.  god, email me if you have to but dont listen to their ******* c**p YOU ARE NOT MENTALLY ILL!!!  please stop taing those FDA approved drugs, get on herbs and vitamins and this will help you balance out.  also exercise everyday. im so sick of modern science abusing kids.

Answer 2

I agree with your thoughts on not taking drugs. To take drugs to correct yourself is nothing more than changing who you really are.

i dont see why this can be a problem, you know the problem therefore you can fix it through your own will. Find a good friend and hang out with them. All kids are crazy one way or another, h**l i even went through that time when i wanted to kill myself. I think it is more normal than anything.

Just realize that you might be considered anti-social, but work on it. One thing a lot of people start to do is blame people or other things for their problems, they are your problems and you can fix them.
