A member asked:
I took a test and got bad results saying i could be schizophrenic and i black out and forget stuff a lot, is that a sign?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What test?: As a psychological examiner, i would like to know what tests you took. Were they administered by a trained professional. Blacking out and forgetting are symptoms of several disorders and a thorough assessment by a professional may help to rule out certain diagnoses. Schizophrenia is rarely detected later in life (onset is usually in the teens or early 20s).
