Am I psychotic or just paranoid? I have been c-ing and hearing things. Dolls eyes follow me evrywhere.?

I'm afraid its going to get worse. I take medication for bipolar I, depression/sleep. I also have social anxiety disorder. I started c-ing and hearing things about a year ago, but its getting worse. I'm scared. What if there comes a time when I don't realize that it's only in my head? I haven't told my psychiatrist or therapist yet. Has anyone ever experienced this?

You better tell them pronto. They might be giving you the wrong drugs. Why suffer?

How old are you and your gender?

Tell your therapist. Period.

i have a whole world you don't know about. im not kidding. its real, trust me. im not sure about yours though.. from the sounds of it no. seek help, ask your therapist. ive done all the things you can imagine and its proven i dont have anything wrong with me. and i knew what my physcatrist was thinking or about to say before they did so when i said it they freaked.. yeah thats right my so called 'invisible friends' told me. theres a lot you dont know about !

yeah, tell your doc. asap

well, you're certainly nuttier than a fruitcake ... i suspect you're not taking your meds ... and if what's happening to you scares you enough to talk frankly and openly with your therapist, there are probably lots of good days ahead. and don't feel alone, brother ...

Please talk to your doctor immediately. Believe me, he or she has heard it all - they aren't going to get all excited - or hysterical - they'll do what you expect them to do, and that's help you.

I was diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic, about a year after BP struck. This is not uncommon - and they prescribed an anti-psychotic (Seroquel), and bingo! No more problems with it. If you're scared, then you need to get to your therapist and your pdoc asap. This can be medicated with good results.

I don't know if you are psychotic but you are experiencing paranoid delusions. I have experienced some of the same symptoms you are. I have taken every anti-depressant under the sun and nothing works. I also have social anxiety disorder and have on more than one occasion talk to people that weren't there or hear someone talking directly in my ear and no one is there. If you are getting worse, then yes, please tell your psychiatrist and your therapist. It is their duty to help you. Tell them everything you think you see, feel, or hear. Get the help now, please. You may beat this and become a stronger person who may be able to help someone else who needs you. Listen and learn from what your Dr's. tell you. And always ask as many questions you want. After all, it's your sanity and your life. Just believe.
