Mental Health Awareness Group discussion

Hello everyone, my name is Enoki.
I noticed no one has covered schizophrenia, which happens to be one of the things that affects me greatly.
Many people think that schizophrenia is just hallucinations and it stops at that, but that's only one of the symptoms. That symptom is called psychosis, which can be a diagnosis within itself. Schizophrenia is known for its psychotic tendencies, but that's not all it is. Other symptoms include, but aren't limited to: delusions, paranoia, and conflicting what is and isn't real.
I'm a very rare case. I had my first schizophrenic episode at 13 years old, and about 1-1.5 years ago it was named schizophrenia. I'm now 16 years old. At first they diagnosed me with psychosis, because it is very unusual for schizophrenia to manifest before you're at least 18 years old. This likely had to do with my environment, and the fact that schizophrenia runs in the family. I can say I'm one of the only 16 year olds diagnosed with schizophrenia.
Is it curable? No. But, the symptoms can be treated. I take 700 mgs of seroquel to keep the hallucinations at bay. Seroquel is normally, at smaller doses, for anxiety. But at high doses, like mine, is used as a anti-psychotic. Bad news is, at higher doses it also causes insomnia. So of course, I need sleeping meds as well. 150 mgs of trazadone is A LOT. Anyway, I'm getting off topic.
All the information here comes from reliable online sources, phychiatrists/psychologists, and my own experience.

I'm willing to answer any questions to the best of my ability. I am not a psychiatrist, nor am I a psychologist, this is from what I have learned and experienced. Remember, experiences with schizophrenia are not the same for everyone.

Thanks for covering it :3
