10. What Do I Do if I Think I Have Paranoid Schizophrenia?
If you think you have symptoms of schizophrenia, try not to worry or panic before you have been evaluated by a doctor. It’s possible that you are experiencing anxiety, sleep deprivation, or another medical condition that can cause several of the same symptoms as schizophrenia.
If you have a strong family history or a first-degree relative with the disorder, it’s best to be evaluated the first time you show symptoms and not later. Remember that even if you do have paranoid schizophrenia, medication and therapy may do a great deal to relieve your symptoms.
