Answers:
sounds like you may have social anxiety disorder
Social Anxiety Disorder
Some of the signs and symptoms include:
1. An extreme fear of a situation in which you have to meet new people or you may be scrutinized by others.
2.The feared social situations are experienced with intense anxiety or avoided entirely.
3.The anxiety-provoking social situation causes physical symptoms like blushing, sweating, shaking, trembling, tense muscles, shaky voice, dry mouth or a pounding heart.
The basic symptom of social anxiety disorder is of being very anxious in the presence of others. If you suffer from social anxiety disorder, you may think that other people are very confident in public and you are not. Just blushing may feel horribly embarrassing to you, and you may feel like everyone's eyes are always on you. You may feel anxious about giving a speech, talking to a boss or dating.
Some people with social anxiety disorder are afraid of public speaking or parties. Others feel terrible anxiety about using a public restroom, eating out, talking on the phone or writing in front of others.
Almost everyone experiences some social anxiety now and then; it's normal. However, social anxiety disorder consistently limits the lifestyle of those with the illness, in some cases causing them to not participate in school, avoid making friends or miss important opportunities at work. Some people with social anxiety disorder avoid all socially related situations, severely limiting their life, work and social relationships
you could have agoraphobia...go to a doc and get it checked out
thats OCD. No Schizophrenia. Unless people are talking to you in your head. Telling you to do things.
Go to a psychiatrist. That why they have them
I'm no professional... But this sounds like a huge situation of Anxiety disorder, or panic disorder w/ agoraphobia... but leaning more on the Anxiety disorder. And no you're not crazy or schizophrenic, at least I wouldnt put my money on it. If it bothers you talk to your school counselor and you may get referred if it's serious.
maybe its seperation anxiety .. you are always referring to going to mom ..( a fear of not being with her)
It sounds like you have a severe attachment to your mother. But it's hard to diagnose in a forum, not to mention that I'm not a doctor. You could probably talk to your mother about setting you up with an appointment with a counselor to discuss this issue. It would be a lot easier to speak with a counselor who may be required by law to keep your file private, even from your parents. At least in some states by your age. You could tell the counselor anything you like and he/she could help with suggestions or refer you to a psychiatrist.
I recommend not to seek out medication at your age since you are in a big development stage of your life and medication may possibly have negative effects on your physical and mental growth. If a doctor recommends it, I would probably get a second opinion. But again. I'm not a doctor so be careful on your search for answers because there are no quick fixes for these types of issues. Hope you find what you're looking for.
this sounds more like social anxiety, which most people at least have some level of. yours in just higher than others. the best thing to do is to confront your fear- not run away from it. try enrolling in a speech class, talk to a psychologist to find out exactly what you're so afraid of, etc.
Sure doesn't sound like Schizophrenia to me.
You have anxiety and possibly depression.
You might have Agoraphobia (fear of open spaces), Social Phobia/Anxiety (fear of being around people), or Separation Anxiety (you don't like being away from your mother).
Maybe you should talk to a doctor about it. This kind of thing is fairly common and responds well to medication; therapy may also be helpful.
