To those that have had schizophrenia since childhood (especially early childhood), what did it look like for you? Did or you always have auditory and visual hallucinations, and do you now? Did it progressively get more severe as you got older? I’m thinking I’m probably schizophrenic, or have experienced something with similar symptoms from a young age, and I am trying to gauge if I’m on the right path to figuring out what I deal with.
One person shared that they had schizophrenia since they were 4 but didn't get a diagnosis until they were 18 or 19 years old. They mentioned that they felt stable, but the episodes were becoming longer and harder to differentiate from reality. Another individual stated that their condition started in childhood, but they didn't receive a diagnosis until they were 19. It was also mentioned that the condition can "get worse" over time.
