I think I'm crazy or I'm just sick


Question Posted Friday April 25 2014, 1:36 am

I've been living with my family for my 16 years of existence. However I lived with my 2nd parents since when I was born up to age 13 coz they had no child and my real parents' house is just next to ours so I really know them. And now I moved to my real parents' house. It's just really weird because sometimes when my mom talks to me I stare at her and ask to myself who is she and I say to myself I can't believe that this woman is my mom without any reason. She is really good mom. I also unexpectedly do that to my 2nd mom and even my dads. I experienced this i think since last year idk I can't remember much. And now I started to worry because I don't go out to my room I just write stuffs, articles and blog and my mom told me that i have a mental illness when she yelled that I'm so lazy. And also rarely when I look at the mirror sometimes I can't even recognize myself or I doubt if is it me, then I doubt if my body belongs to mine. I'm scared about this. And also when I wash my face I forget to turn off the faucet but still rarely. And also one time, when me and my sister were talking, I didn't comprehend what she was talking because I'm seeing her like I'm on tv because she was a far (i hope you get what I meant) but she was not really far from me, she was just a meter from me i think. and also last time when my dad scolded me while he was cooking, I'm seeing him like he was on a frame because I saw him from a far but still he was just few metres away from me and also there was no frame I saw in him literally, I just saw him like he was on frame. Please help me because I can't understand. I know there is no wrong with me because I'm healthy and I'm smart, yeh I'm different from other teens. I don't want this to tell to my parents because they would think im crazy which is am not. I don't want to see a doctor or a psychiatrist because I'm really really afraid I might not be able to get into the medicine school. However, I'm planning to tell this to my 2nd dad about this because I'm super close to him than any other parents but that would be in 4 months because he isn't here. I've researched something about this and I doubt it is a multiple personality disorder. But i dont want to accept that disorder because i dont have it. Please help me. I dont have any other person to ask to because my 2nd dad isn't home yet. Pls im worried coz im going to college and it might affect me much. Thnk you.

If I were you I would start by making an appointment with a medical doctor. Tell the doctor about all these strange symptoms and get a thorough work up. I don't want to scare you but there are a number of neurological diseases that could cause these symptoms. You need to get this checked out immediately. If your Mom is telling you you have a mental illness then for the love of heaven why hasn't she taken you to see a doctor? I am very concerned that your problem is physical rather than psychological. Again I don't want to scare you but if you have something like a tumor or progressive disease then every day that you delay treatment could affect your prognosis.If indeed the problem turns out to be psychological I feel pretty certain that it would not keep you out of medical school. For one thing your medical records are private and no school would be able to get access to them unless you sign a release. The HIPA laws protect your right to privacy. You need to get checked out as soon as possible. If your parents will not make you the appointment please go to your school counselor and explain what you just posted here. Please DO NOT wait four months to seek help. If you have to, just tell your parents that you feel sick and need a doctor's appointment, then ask to go back to the exam room by yourself. Do whatever it takes to talk to the doctor in private and get the medical tests you need.Good luck!

ok it sounds to me like you might need some counseling. if your looking in the mirror and dont recognize yourself, your zoning out while other people are talking to you are you thinking about other things while that happens? or do you feel like your having a day dream? if youve been really stressed out or been through a traumatic experience and didnt deal with it, then i think you should talk to which ever parent you closest to and ask them if they could arrange for you to get some help because of whats happening with you. Isolating yourself up in your room isnt helping things either. people have gone crazy because of it.
