See Psychiatrist: If you think you may have any symptoms of schizophrenia, or for that matter, any psychiatric illness, ask your family doctor for the name on an excellent psychiatrist near you, and make an appointment. Psychiatric diagnoses are sometimes very difficult to make accurately, and the treatment of schizophrenia can be complicated, but very effective. Call tomorrow. I wish you the best!
