Am I mentally ill?
Good evening, I have an important question. I am 17 years old now and was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia at the age of 15, in the sense that I had voices in my head. I am slowly getting the feeling that they are coming back and that they were never really gone. It's just that I don't hear these voices through my ear like most schizophrenic people do, but rather they are in my thoughts. You can imagine it as when you think something out or read a book, and there is not just your voice but also a second one. This voice used to give me terrible orders and now I have this voice again, only it is not giving orders, but I communicate with it as if it were a real person. It has its own opinions and sees things from a different perspective than me. I also feel pretty safe when I talk to this person (in my head), which I actually do all the time. My question now is whether I am mentally ill or am I talking to myself and just imagining it all, because this voice is in my head and I don't hear them through my ear.

Hi! Yeah, that sounds like a schizophrenia. These are chronic processes, i.e. illness that remains. Meanwhile, you can treat these very well with medicines – talk to your family doctor and also a psychiatrist/therapist.
That sounds like the diagnosis you already have, which would be a mental illness. You sure did a therapy? If so: did you learn techniques there that you can apply so that it gets better?
for me, it seems that you don’t harm the vote, but give you a feeling of security, does that?
I only hear my voices in my head. I’ve got this from a schizotype disorder. Disorders from the schizophrenic shape circle unfortunately do not go away at most
jqqq you are
