Hey y'all! Teenager here. I was abused in different ways as a child and around the age of 7 (I think)... I began to see this tall black person who just stands at the corner and not speak. He's pitch black. I was scared at first. I didn't tell anyone because I think I'd be seen as a weirdo and I thought someone might take me away. When I turned 6th grade. It dissapeared. I thought It was going well. Until at the age of 13, I became so depressed to the point that me hallucinations came back, but worse this time. There's voices I don't understand. I hear the whisper of 100s of people surrounding me. And there's more people I've been hallucinating since. At 15, I accepted it. I try to shrug them off and I began to take pills which doesn't do much. I began to draw them and study them. They are mostly harmless, they just stare. And until now, it's been the same as that, I still see them even though I'm no longer depressed or anything... I didn't want to self diagnose myself. But I have a gut feeling that it's schizophrenia... (Sorry if there's any typos or grammar error... I just wanted to get your opinions, thanks!)
