So a few minutes ago whilst responding to Sympa's status thing my hand got an itch right in the center of my palm and I absent mindedly scratched it. Which tickled and I smirked. Then a scary thought dawned on me and I tried tickling myself in some other normal places like armpits, sides, back of the knees. Turns out I can tickle myself, and as some of you probably know that is a potential symptom of schizophrenia. I already have a few other symptom type things that line up with schizophrenia and this is kind of fucking me up. None of the symptoms have ever affected my life in a negative way and I have never felt out of control of myself, but it's a bit of a mind fuck to have a handful of little things add up to even being suspicious of schizophrenia.

 

I'm not losing my shit or anything, it's just a bit of a haymaker out of nowhere in the middle of my work day.

I tend not to leap at any self diagnosis with certainty, but enough things have added up to put me off balance.

If you think it's a legitimate possibility then go to your doctor. Just don't go on WebMD, because you'll spend five minutes there and loose all hope.

I'm not the type to Google symptoms and get all bent out of shape, so no worry there.

I do however pick up pieces of knowledge on shit like this and have little red flags pop up.

 

I have extended family that are definitely not stable, but I don't think there is any history of schizophrenia in there.

So other than being in the right age bracket and the few symptoms there isn't much to build on.

I don't think I will go to a doctor about it since I haven't suffered any adverse effects and don't want to start a ball rolling that I can't stop.

Somehow, we still don't have a health section on the forums.

Yeah, but enough potentials adding up is a bit of a head fuck.

Nah.

My online speed is about the same as my real life speed.

Low and slow mon frere.

Just like some sweet succulent smoked meats.

I understand the cause, but I'm never going to come to a forum for medical advice.

I like all of you guys a lot, but that doesn't mean any of you know shit about medical science above and beyond Googling things for me.

Which I can just do myself.

Were I unwed I would take you in a manly fashion.

I wish that were the case, but I'm really not very ticklish.

Think about it statistically.. like just because you put two numbers together doesn't mean they are related. Go to a doctor.
