People on this app are not trained professionals. Please do not take their ideas as the same as a trained professional assessment of you. Fear can create all kinds of things in our brain. You can see this with children who are afraid of the dark, they see shapes and monsters but nothing is there. They are just being human, not hallucinating. I think it is the OCD that cycles on this theme of having schizophrenia. OCD about schizophrenia is 100% different than being schizophrenic. Even if you can't sleep, you are laying in bed and resting. And that's all you can do right now 😊❤️

It could just be a visual hallucination, have you been taking any drugs lately? Stress and lack of sleep can cause hallucinations as well as a number of things, I sometimes see shadows or things moving but it's just my eyes playing tricks. However if you think it's schizophrenia, how long has this been going on for? If this seems to interfere with your daily life or it is accompanied by other symptoms, you should definitely get it checked out! I'm no proffessional so I have no idea if this helps or if it is entirely accurate but i hope you're okay!!

@🌱 yeah if you're not taking any drugs or smoking cigarettes, then I don't really know. It could definitely just be your eyes playing tricks on you and I agree, schizophrenia sounds really scary and no one would ever want to have it or go through! Are you still seeing things or is it gone?

@🌱 I definitely think it was just a hallucination and you're eyes were just playing tricks on you!! But if it continuosly goes on, you should talk to a proffesional about it but try to get plenty of sleep, if it helps drink water, listen to music and focus on your breathing to calm yourself down!! Sorry if this doesn't help
