Hello
I'm not quite sure what is going on with me at the moment. I think I might have schizophrenia, but I'm not sure. I don't hear voices or see things that aren't meant to be there, but I feel things that aren't right. The weird thing is that I started my problem. (Bear with me I know this sounds weird). When I was younger I used to pretend things like all kids do. I used to really enjoy dancing so I would pretend that the chairs in the living room were like an audience. The thing is that I now feel like everything is an audience, like everything is watching me. I feel like all the objects in my house can somehow see me. Sometimes I talk to them (various objects) and sometimes I pretend that they're famous people. I don't fear the presence of this feeling and I'm not influenced to do things because of it. I know it sounds really weird. I would really love for someone to tell me what this is.
I also suffer from panic attacks, depression, have a fear being on my own and a fear of people being sick. I sometimes feel lightheaded and detached in public situations, like being in a crowded place. I have no problem with maintaining relationships with others and my relationship with my boyfriend of 4 years is unaffected by this. I haven't told anyone else about this feeling I have though I've experienced it since the age of 9.
Please help. I've never read anything else that sounds like my problem.
Thanks
