If worried . . . : If worried about your symptoms or their implications, please talk with your doctor. Panic and anxiety differ greatly from schizophrenia, even though schizophrenic people may experience anxiety. Schizophrenic anxiety usually also comes along with significant delusions & other symptoms. Your doctor will want to know about your family history -- so please tell him/her and ask your questions.

Please have a physical exam to know if you have an illness. Your psychiatric medication should be managed by your Psychiatrist. It is advisable to have psychotherapy along with meds - see a Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy. Your Psychiatrist and Psychologist can help you to diagnose your symptoms to know where you stand.
