Question Posted Tuesday September 11 2007, 9:54 pm
I'm always afraid people are watching me when I'm alone. And that people can see what I'm thinking.
I know it's irrational but knowing that doesn't make it go away.
Seeing a therapist would probably be a last resort. I have one, but I haven't seen him in a long time and I don't really want to. And I definitely don't want to be on any unnecessary medication. My psychiatrist is way too quick to want to medicate me.

First you should look up the symptoms of these two things and pair them with others you may have. If it doesn't fit, try googling your symptoms and you may find something.
If you find a match, or a few, print or copy the symptoms and show them to a doctor saying, "I have these symptoms, could I be this?" Its good to go to at least two or three doctors though for extra opinion.
