Details:
I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression last year, but recently I've been thinking it may be more than that. I've always been prone to existential crises, but they have recently been getting worse. I've never seen or heard anything that nobody else did, and have never deluded myself, but I find it very easy to visualize things or imagine hearing them. In the fifth and sixth grade especially, I had a massive problem with sleeping because, mostly due to a lack of socializing successfully, I was absolutely terrified of being left alone. This fear has dissolved over the years, but every once in a while I still feel traces of this. Schizophrenia, along with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, and mood disorders, run rampant in my family, so I think I at least have reason to believe I may have something more. I'm only 14 yet, so it's hard to tell.
It may not be schizophrenia, but is there something that hasn't been diagnosed
