Re: i think i am schizophrenic but i don't know how to tell a doctor - January 2nd 2012, 04:39 PM

Like Marissa said, there are a lot of other illnesses that cause psychosis and there's a lot more to diagnosis than just matching symptoms.

Are you seeing a psychiatrist and not a general physician? A psychiatrist would usually have a better idea of the possible illnesses and what tests to run to rule out physical disorders first.
