I was wondering if anyone has any advice. I've had what I realize now are schizophrenic symptoms for a couple of months now, and I'm scheduled to see a psychiatrist in two weeks (I originally sought help for mood and anxiety problems). I have a lot of trouble actually believing that I actually suffer from these symptoms and that they're actually real. I know that I hallucinate things that aren't there, think inanimate objects talk to and look at me, and have a whole host of other symptoms, but I feel like I don't and that I'm completely faking or exaggerating it. Any advice to overcome this so I can accurately describe my symptoms? I also think this could get in the way of me taking any medication or treatment I would get, as I don't think my problem is real. Everyone in my life I've talked to about my symptoms is very concerned about my mental health, but I can't seem to believe that I have a problem.
