Hi everyone. I (M19) have had anxiety and OCD for many years now. Most of my anxiety revolves around health issues. For example, in the past I had a dark spot on my skin that I was terrified of it being cancer. I was so scared I made my parents take me to a dermatologist just to have them take a picture. Recently I’ve been getting the fear of developing schizophrenia

I started taking THC edibles not very long ago, usually about 5-10mg a week. Recently I took one while I was slightly anxious which was not a good idea. I looked up some of the symptoms and it seemed to match schizophrenia. I’ve been getting paranoid; for example sometimes I try and listen closely to something because I’m scared that I’m hearing a voice. Or when I hear something behind me I get paranoid that I didn’t actually hear it and I am going crazy. Sometimes I feel paranoid when I’m alone, scared that something bad will happen. Sometimes listening to music, I’ll hear something and then start questioning if it was the music or if I was hearing voices

One example I can think of is if I hear something around me like something moving, I get scared that it was a breath or something, and then I get scared about “what if it was a schizophrenic voice”
I’ve never been convinced a voice was talking to me, it’s just that I’m scared I will hear a voice. Earlier today I saw something out of the corner of my eye and panicked and turned around, just to see nothing. I feels like my hearing is heightened and when I hear something, I try to focus in on it to make sure I’m not hearing something that isn’t really there.

I’ve read that OCD and schizophrenia are very common together which is making me more scared. 

Also I’m sure this is a coincidence, but I’ve been listening to a lot of Pink Floyd lately. And anyone who knows Pink Floyd knows Syd Barrett and his story. Long story short, I’m scared that that is what’s happening to me. Any help is greatly appreciated.
