  1. um do i have this disorder
    i like being alone and i talk to myself

  2. lol, caitlyn

    We can’t tell just from that. It’s normal to occasionally talk to yourself and being alone is okay as long as it doesn’t interfere too much with your social life. Just worry when you’re talking to yourself and you get a response!

  3. well, since im an insomniac, i have an abnormal amount of time to stare at the ceiling and think deep thoughts about philosophical things that often make me challenge my own thoughts and existence itself, which i think may have changed my answers and made my view on reality seem blurred but im not quite sure if i do have schizophrenia…

    • Same with me, except I’m 14 and I am constantly feeling watched. Like I feel like there is a dark shadow man standing in the hallway across from my room and he wants to hurt me. He makes me feel bad about all of the things I’ve done to people and he forces me to think that I am supposed to be punished so I have to be punished by beating myself in the wrist with a lock. At first, I did it when I got mad because I knew that if I got mad that I had to be punished. But then every time I go mad, I punished myself. My wrist began to swell up and my mom has been taking me to doctors, wondering why my wrist is swollen. I always tell thm that I took a nap and when I woke-up my wrist was that way. I told myself that I didn’t do those hints to myself, my super-hero alter-ego Elastic Girl did it because she wanted to go on a journey of self-discovery and that was a necessary part of her trip. Now I don’t need the shadow man to tell me when I need to be punished because I can decide whether to punish myself. But now the lock is not enough so I’ve been smashing an unheated iron on my wrist now. It’s so used to being battered that it swells up the same as it usually does, but what if I go too far and have to tell my parents everything? They won’t sympathize wih me, they’ll call me stupid and get mad. This is the first time I’ve told the whole story. I’ve even called the suicide hotline a few times because I just wanted to talk to someone. I act “normal” with my friends, I’m like a class clown and I’m always giving people advice and being nice to them because I don’t want to do something I need to be punished for. also, I let peoPle take advantage of me sometimes because I deserve it. I talk a lot and some of my teachers think I am weird. I had an imaginary friend named Blanky wh o I met when I was four years old, and he was seven, but he is always with me and has grown up with me eversince. He never left. He comforts me and sometimes sleeps in my bed instead of going “home”, wherever he lives. I am constantly contradicting my thoughts with philosophies, or vice-versa, just as you. I do not know where to turn to and everything I hear lyrically, like in a song, I think has a meaning and try to apply it in my life. Everything I hear is important, so I try to find it’s importance, that is why I don’t want help because Elastic Girl’s journey will help me understand why I can never be sure of anything, but I want to get help so I can know if I am crazy or not, and so I won’t have to be punished anymore, but if I don’t punish myself, how can I keep myself in check? Please Help Me!

  4. my phycologist told me that i’m shizoeefective mixture of bipolar and schizophrenia.. I am insomia too. so i can relate to that.e-mail me if anyone wants to chat about schizophrenia..

    jackie

  5. Yeah, I can’t sleep much either. But I think I might have schizophrenia because I keep hearing things. Normally, it’s just a doorbell, or i think music is playing in the other room, but the other day i heard a gun shot and screaming. That, and I keep getting confused with what is real and what i drempt about. I dont’ want to talk to a psycologist, but I don’t want to get to the point where I can’t prove that what i hear doesn’t exist. what to do…

  6. I cant sleep either, Im more or less afraid of it too, and I do hear things that I can determine whether its reality or in my head and I dont want to talk to anyone becasue it feels like nobdys going to understand me or listen and then all my theories of how the world work are suddenly going to become true, and then I start at the beggining, and I definatly cannot find the right words to explain my self, so I have like intervals where my brain just switches off D; I cant even explain it now

  7. I have a really weird sleeping pattern. Sometimes I feel insomniac, and other times I can’t get enough sleep. It’s really bugging me.

    Anyway,lately I’ve been getting the feeling I’m a paranoid schizoprehnic. I constantly hear things, smell things or see things out of the corner of my eye. I’ll be talking to someone, and stop mid-sentence to point it out but they claim not to notice. I’ve always had the feeling someone from a different world is watching me, and that I’ll go there eventually (probably when I die) since I can remember. Of course, I know now that’s completely irrational, but that’s me. I think someone, sometimes several people can read my mind and occasionally I attempt talking. I’ve never gotten a verbal answer, but have felt something like an arm rap around me. It actually calms me down when I’m scared. I’m terrified of being alone. Whenever I am I get scared that people are watching me, and at school I’ll start to think everyone is looking at me. I do stick out, so glances at me are common. The bad thing is, I once wanted to hide in the classroom because I couldn’t find my friends and I started to think everyone was talking and laughing about me because I was circling the school alone, almost giving me a bad panic-attack. My most recent experience with fear was last night. I watched The Ring years ago, but I always think I’m going to die from it. That’s normal to me by now. The other fear last night was that a policeman was going to knock on my window with his flashlight and ask me something. It wasn’t too scary at first, until I thought of how terrifying it’d be to be lying in bed, half-asleep and suddenly hear loud banging. For some reason I never considered the fact it’d awaken anyone else, just that I’d notice. I forgot what, but I do remember I thought of it because I read a post online and thought, “Yes, because a policeman is just going to come up to my window and ask me.” There’s more, but I’m sure no one wants to read a wall of text. Anyway, I’m pretty, okay, I am sure that’s not normal.

  8. I don’t know if I have it or not. this test said I had symptoms. I’ve been to like, 9 therapists, and at first they all said I might have it, but they all blew it off and diagnosed something else to explain it. I only know the things I hear and see and feel. People always seem to think I’m joking when I talk about it though. they laugh everytime I bring any of it up. When I was a kid, invisible mind reading goblins started following me. They control hoards of black insects made of smoke, and they talk to me and eat my thoughts and poke and pinch me. And when I was younger, I thought I had telekinisis (how ever you spell it) and I thought the goblins were trying to steal my powers. (Perhaps they did, because I don’t have them anymore.) It wasn’t until late middle school that I started telling people about this. I always thought that it was normal for this to happen to people. Not to mention I had already been in some situations where I appeared to be suffering from mental instability, so I definitely didn’t want to egg it on. Even now, due to previous reations from peers, I don’t like to bring it up. I have a hard time telling apart things other people say is real and the things I experience. I do things that are strange, even to me sometimes, and sometimes I, zone out I guess(?), and I wake up later in a wierd position or doing something for no appearent reason. IS THIS WIERD!? Is it really as funny or unbelieveable as people tell me? Am I crazy!? Up until a few years ago I thought I was normal. I don’t know now. I just don’t know. I’m a little scared…

  9. I’m 16 years old.
    All of my life I’ve had expreiences. That a lot of people don’t understand. (At a relatively early age)(sexual and physical abuse)
    Ever since… I believe I was about 6 when I started hearing a lot of strange noises.
    I would sometimes see and hear my step-dad yelling and screaming at me, as I’m sitting in a corner, and I’d began crying. My mom would yell my name, and he wouldn’t be there.
    I’ve had “imaginary friends” since I was young.
    I still talk to myself, very often.
    I hear and see a lot of things, that “aren’t there”.
    I get extremely terrified.
    I have this obsession that I used to have as a kid. I take “fluff” from a pillow, a tiny amount, and I’ll cuddle with it, and rub it on my skin. It makes me feel better.
    I was wondering.
    Do I have symptoms of Skitzophrenia?

    Xoxo-Chelsey Reine.

  10. I ended up scoring a 32 on the Screen quiz.
    I suppose, that’s not good.
    It makes me tremble.
    I’m not sure if I should bring it up with my mom.
    I used to be diagnosed with Skitzophrenia.
    They ended up diagnosing me with Bipolar Disorder, shortly after and completely ignored the possibility of skitzophrenia.
    Please, If possible, get back to me please.

  11. I scored a 13 on the test, but only because I was telling the truth. I’ve been seeing things… weird things…but the weird thing is that i don’t “PHYSICALLY” see them, they are like images that i can see in my mental eye, I dont get much sleep very often and that could be the reason (its like insomnia). but the weirdest appiration i ever saw was when i was walking in the woods and i thought i saw a figure that looked exactly like me, except it was wearing a mask. that was a long time ago and i think i might be getting better at living with this and controlling my thoughts on what “IS” and “IS’NT” real. plus ever since I’ve started going out with this one girl at school my symptoms have been showing less and less, now its down to 1-2 visions a week. I just had to get that off my chest.
    No worries,I’m fine
    hope all the others on this website are OK, especially the 10-14 scorers,stay strong
    J.S

  12. i scored a 57 not like i didnt no this already

  13. Well, I seem to be staying up through late hours of the night – i.e. three to four in the morning – and sleeping to the late hours of the day, ranging by when I’m awakened by my parents. I haven’t been going to school a lot lately due to a sickness I’ve fallen into that no one can seem to place their finger on. . though I’m thinking that it may be just because I don’t want to be around people at all. I keep to myself in my household, I have friends on Xbox Live and on the Internet, but really no friends at school that I talk to otherwise. Classroom friends, you know? I’m beginning to hate it when people touch me. . it’s making me feel agitated toward them and I don’t know why. The smallest things are seeming to tip me off the edge, I can’t ever explain what I’m feeling to anyone. It’s like I can’t gather up the words for it. . I feel paranoid about a lot of things and I’ve talked to myself a lot when people aren’t there. I talk back to myself, too. . and sometimes I do get a reply. At school, I can be standing or sitting there and talking to someone that I CLEARLY see there, then one of the people around me come up and I look at them, only to discover that there was nothing there. I hear a lot of things. . it’s hard to explain. Like. . I’ll hear people talking or walking, ect’. . that’s why I have to keep myself busy on the computer or on the Xbox so I always have noise. I’m starting to ignore a lot of things. . like sounds and words that people around me cause, but a few months ago I was sitting at the computer and had music playing and I heard two blades scraping together above my left hand, then felt a sharp pain in the base of my thumb a few moments later. I replayed the song to make sure that wasn’t in there. . when I knew it wasn’t, because I had listened to that song plenty of times. I ignored it for a while until, a few minutes later, I heard a sound as if someone dropped a light bulb and it smashed right above my left hand. I told my mom about it, but she said it was just my imagination. . she tells me I have a good imagination, but I’m not sure it would go that far, right? My brother has been in my room lately because we just got Live and it pisses me off so bad. . he smokes in here, and I threatened to pour water on him if he didn’t put it out today. I actually got the big cup of water and was about to do it, too. . I’ve had a lot of thoughts of suicide lately, as well as I’ve had a suicidal past, so the slight amount of depression doesn’t bother me. I feel as if there are bugs crawling on my sometimes, or as if I’m being stabbed by needles in random instances. . it kinda’ freaks me out. I was just wondering if this could be a possibility of what could be wrong with me.

  14. ^ Me.

    And, as I’ve been told before. . I like to interrupt people a lot, especially when I don’t realize it. My emotions are topsy-turvy. . very easily distraught. I have even increased my argumentative abilities without realizing. I laugh inappropriately a lot of times. . and I don’t realize it. The smiling is the same way, or, at other times, I’m emotionally depleted. I’m never hungry, and I’m never thirsty. .

  15. im scared i feel like im going insane all the time…im always by myself even when im surrounded by people i can never sleep and when i do either i see someone being killed in some way or its as if im the killer i have dreams where the people i care about are being taken away or killed i have anger problems if you push me too far but that takes alot ive had a really hardtime because i dont have anyone to talk to and i have this problem where alot of the time i look at the things around me as if im not there as if im on the outside i also fel like people are watching me not all the time but if something is bothering me than i feel like ppl are…..i also make myself depressed alot…ive had alot of problems with my family and how i laugh at things that arent funny and its wrong

  16. Quinn, I know how you feel. I’m having a therapist appointment today to figure out if I need to see a psychologist. When I was 15, I used to hear small things like fuzzy static from the TV, but when I asked my dad to turn the TV off he said it wasn’t on. Other times I’ll get this rhythmic pounding sound (no, it’s not my heartbeat) that doesn’t quit for almost 10 or 15 minutes.

    A few months ago I jumped out of bed at like 2 in the morning. When my sister asked what was wrong, I told her that I heard a gunshot. She said she hadn’t heard anything, but I heard again about 3 other times that night. That seriously scared the bajeezuz out of me.

    Now whenever I get a song stuck in my head, I’ll sometimes actually hear it playing, when it’s not. Albeit it has a really staticy quality to it. That doesn’t really bother me, but I sometimes hear the voices of my mom and sister when they’re not there. Once again, scary as @$%*.

    It’s also hard to wake up in the morning because I’m forced to sleep by my dad. It seems that I have more energy when I get practically no sleep, but he doesn’t get it. He works so much, so he hasn’t seen me spazz out like my sister has. I don’t think he should cuz he’d just try and get me hooked on anti-depressant drugs.

    Both of my grandparents (from my mom’s side) were Schizophrenic, and my mom is bi-polar and depressed. I also heard that epilepsy basically doubles the chances of being Schizo, so now I’m really scared. I’ve been epileptic for 6 years, but my episodes have become few and far between. I just hope I won’t have another thing to worry about now.

  17. I’m guessing a 90 is really bad.

    I don’t want to bring this problem up to anyone, though.

  18. I am told have dillusions and I see things like Blood oozing from celings. I see these white people with smuged over white faces and they sometimes want to talk to me. I hear many voices and tend to converse with myself quite often. I always think some one is trying to be me, to act like meh, dress like me, i think they want to steal my identity. Somtyms ithink black creatures are out side my walls at night and no one else can see them, they are in my closet and in my matress and are waiting for me to go to sleep so they can controll my body. I think that if i wear circular objucts (wristbands and such) that they wont get in because they hold my soal to my body. The voices tell me to call people and to tell them things and then when they wont answer it throws me into a anxiety attack because the voices are mad at me. I do know that i ahev anxiety/panic dissorder. I think bugs live in the walls of my house cause i watch them crawl under the walls. I cannot handle people but sometimes at night people are sitting in my room talking to me telapathicly sometimes verbaly. Sometimes the walls melt becoming gray in color and then start decaying. I used to be very violent beating things smaller than me when i was young. as ive gotten older im not a violent person and do not like to hurt others. But as i get older i See more hallusinations of worsening things and when i close my eyes i see killings and hangings going on in my head of people i do not know. im not sure why that i see these things or whi they get worse

  19. The voices are not always understandable, sometimes it sounds like a bunch of people wispering at the same time

  20. ok now im really scared. Ive been seeing and hearing things for a few years now but I havnt thought anything of it until recently. I really like talking to the people in my head, but sometimes I cant tell if thier real or not, so when someone comes into my room that i dont regognize and they try to touch me or talk to me i dont know what to do. But the voices are the worst, it makes it hard to sleep, but their not even voices sometimes, just inaudiable whispers. My whole life my thoughts have been scattered all over, Sometimes i try to drown out the voices by thinking of a story in my head, but my mind changes what im trying to think of and turns it into something that will frighten or upset me… Im afraid to tell my parents, they wont believe me anyway, can someone please give me some advice?

  21. i dont want to tell anyone about my problem. I like the things i see, theyre my friends and I know that they will protect me.

  22. I am afraid I might have schizophrenia. I’m 12, but my parents never listen to me. I have insomnia and i’m a deep thinker, so i have many more questions than answers. Anyways, I am constantly looking over my shoulder. It feels like someone is watching me or right behind me. Sometimes I curl up on my bed with my dog and try to calm down. I am depressed(no anti-depressants though)and don’t have many friends anymore. I prefer just sitting alone in my room. i have one good friend though. everyone else has proven themselves back-stabbers and i don’t want to be hurt again. also, everyone acts weird because i don’t like people to touch me. actually, i hate it. I am NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT making this up, i promise. also, i swear to god people are breathing on me and touching me when i’m alone in the room. and there’s these scary noises…..and i made my mom get rid of a mirror because i SWEAR i saw a face in it that wasn’t mine. please, will someone help me?????????

  23. seriously people just chill out and find something to hold on to such as a moto or a way of living.i for instance have all of this crazy ideas and thoughts i my head that no one gets but i’m not worried i just don’t share them with everyone.

  24. I have just done the screening test and i had 60. Quite curious how this measures to other reults. Not really ready to write how i am feeling yet.

    Jess

  25. I got a 34, early signs of it.

    I suspect I may be either schizophrenic, bipolar, panic disorder-ish, depressed, or some/all of the above. Bipolar, IMHO, seems to be the best bet, because my mother has it..

    I don’t feel like listing all of my symptoms right now.

  26. i am 17 and scored a 23. i don’t see anything but i think i might be hearing things. Also going to sleep is a burden to me because i have nightmares almost every single night. i am extremely terrible at making decisions but i don’t know if that’s related. I consider myself to be a pretty logical person so i think i can sort out reality, but in my dreams a feel the same way. so in order to find out if i am in a dream, i allow myself to believe that i am always in a dream but i think that just screwed me over. I feel every one of my fears is hiding something great so i am always drawn to self-destructive behavior and hurting myself. haha, probly why i love MMA and rugby and drinking. also my friends are huge ganja fans, but anytime i try it i have freak reactions and once beat my friend in the face cause i thought he was the devil (HAHAH and they were just regular high and it freaked them out). every once in a while i kind of think i am replaying moment when i got high and feel stuck in this own little world. well, you guys have it more tough so good luck

  27. umm,im 13 and i scored a 37 on the schizophrenia screening quiz. i don’t get much sleep because im afraid of what ill see when i close my eyes. when i wake up i havent a clue wheather i have just woken up from a dream or just fell into one. my social life is like any other teen except when im at home. i hear music that isnt there and dinging that appears to be unheard to others. schizophrenia runs in the family history and lately ive been wondering. i talk to myself and yes i get responses. the only dreams i remember are nightmares. for instance the time i dreamt i was restrained in a mental institution and my friends believe i will be their one day. will i? a part of me wishes and i dont care to know why. i like to write but when i write it’s dark and heavy. im scared and i dont want a counciler or anyone to ask about my feelings and crap cuz here they are. my personality is somewhat normal. i like to play guitar but the voices interfere. am i going to end up like my great grandmothers mom and be mentally ill and die from it when my kids are thirteen. my mom was a mess of course she didnt care when i was forming she did drugs and smoked i think i was messed up too at the time. i get distracted in clss so i never do my homework right but for some reason i end up in advanced classes.i have two brothers and they notice changes in me all the time and they just make me worse. the voices and sounds i hear never stop please help they go on and on like now.

  28. I havent questioned if i may have schizophrenia until recently.
    Ive ALWAYS seen things out of the corner of my eye, and get startled and turn to look over to see what it is and nothing is ever there. I rarely hear voices but more often hear whispers that I can never understand because of how low they are. I hear other noises like footsteps throughout my house or other forms of movement whereever I go. Im constantly paranoid for no reason. I feel as if im being watched, or followed all of the time. And Im constantly freaking out, looking around fearing what isnt even there.
    Also, after researching this illness more ive discovered that I have alot more symptoms than I couldve imagined I would. I can NEVER sleep. I feel as if im physically unable to fall asleep and sometimes end up going days completely restless. I can never keep a hold of my thoughts and it is very difficult for me to pay attention because my mind is always racing and then I constantly forget what I was thinking.
    This fear and all of the things I keep seeing are getting out of hand. I want to go to a therapy, but ive always been uncomfortable with sharing my feelings and have trouble forming what I think/feel into words.
    Depression is another huge thing, Ive always had it. It runs in my family on my mothers side.
    The depression was very severe when I was young but when I was 16 I started dating a girl who I completely fell in love with and my constant sadness stopped completely for a long time. We were together for over a year and a half, and she was the only person who ive ever shared EVERYTHING about my life with, and one day she just completely cut me out of her life alltogether. no explination, nothing. just dropped me without even telling me. Next month it will be a year since weve last spoken. Ive moved on from it but thats when everything came back, But worse than it has ever been. I have a tendancy to be extremely quiet at times and not even notice it until someone tells me. I cant sit completely still for more than a few seconds, Im always uncomfortable, I have to adjust in some way. when I was young I used to feel as if bugs were crawling all over my body or as if someone is touching me. It hasnt happened in a very long time, but used to very often.
    I feel hopeless, and my emotions have been getting duller withh age, and Im only 18 so I fear what will happen with time. Today, my dog died. And ive had this dog since I was a year old. Im the one who discovered him dead in my living room, unfortunately. maybe it hasnt fully set in yet that hes gone? I feel like it has , because I completely understand that it is what it is. I just feel numb.
    I dont know what to do anymore. I want all of this bullshit to stop.

  29. I think the problem of society is that we are all to be labeled one way or another. I’m curious about everyone that has posted a comment, who’s expectations are you trying to live up to? Are they your expectations or anothers?
    Not only that but do you realize in order to be an actor or actress, one must be able to take on several personalities~ sometimes leading to identity crisis.
    Not only that, but alot of the common symptoms discussed in the comments sections are those of priest and other spiritualist people.
    People believe in angels, ghosts, spirits, fairies and have been seeing them for centuries.
    Have any of you ever looked up Philosophy and read about philosophers theories of life, what we are, how we became and what we become.
    There are so many creative millionaires that have taken the voices and their visions and have created “things” out of them.
    What I am saying is that, instead of thinking you are different than Normal people,,, consider the fact there are a million people out here in this world experiencing the same reality as you,,,
    Therefore you are not abnormal.
    Just a thought, I’d love to hear some responses

  30. I have to add another comment,
    Did anyone who took the quiz look and see who the advertisments are from, The sponsors?
    Check it out and see if they are benefiting from you taking this quiz.
    Always be weary of web sponsors.
    Did you by chance see how many disclaimers were put up? Or notice HOW the questions were Phrased to make it seem you are the werid one out.

    If Not; I’ve copied and pasted my results for you.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    You have answered this schizophrenia screening in such a way as to suggest that you are not likely currently suffering from schizophrenia or a schizophrenia-related disorder. Because no online test is 100% accurate, please be aware that this does not necessarily mean you do not have schizophrenia, only that this particular quiz did not find sufficient evidence to suggest that you do. You should not take this as a diagnosis or recommendation for treatment in any way. If you have concerns regarding your mental health or well-being, please consult a trained mental health professional for further assistance

    Please note, this quiz has limited validity.
    Please interpret the below results cautiously.

    This is not meant as a diagnosis tool!

    ~NOTE HOW THIS QUESTION SAYS NO BODY ELSE~
    Really, Give it a check, find others that have somewhat of the same feelings, voices etc, that you do. They are called SUPPORT GROUPS

    5. I believe in more than one thing about reality and the world around me that nobody else seems to believe in.

    Just trying to help those who feel lost and seeking themselves.

  31. I am not sure why this keeps happening. I seem to have begun to think and behave in ways that are making it hard to understand others and sometimes even my own thoughts. A couple of weeks ago I had some frightening experiences that I later found to be not real. And I have been having some thoughts that interfere with my concentration. I have also been feeling antisocial more and more. I can’t watch tv because it confuses me most of the time and other things. I tried talking to my parents but I am not sure they understand what I’m going through. If anyone has any ideas on what is going on please tell me.

  32. Ive taken this test (a few fine because I wasn’t sure at first and mostly confused) but each time I scored a 33; I know that isn’t nearly as high as some other people but I’m very concerned that I could schizophrenic.
    It’s in my family (an uncle on my fathers side) as are a grab bag of other mental health conditions (ptsd, borderline personality disorder, anxiety, bipolar disorder, to name a few)
    I started writing when I was thirteen (four years ago). I got very absorbed in it, spent all my time alone in my room with little more than music and lined paper and pen. As I got further and further into it, it started becoming more real. Specifically the main character that I created. I kept writing and this issue kept growing- now he’s actually real. With me, beside me, all the time. When Im alone I talk to him. When I wake up he’s there, when I go to sleep he’s there, arm around me.
    I love him. And I dont want to tell anyone because i don’t want help; I know he’ll go away. This alone has made me consider hurting myself…

    Ive read everything I can on as many mental health conditions and disorders as I can and none of them seem to fit this…thing.
    I’m scared to tell anyone, especially my mom.
    I’d really just like to know whats happening to me.

    Apologies for the life story; that was the best way I new how to explain..

    B.

  33. I’m 14 and I scored a 74 on the test.
    I don’t know where to start to be honest. Let’s start with Tee. Tee is my friend. I know everything about her and I can see her, hear her, touch her. The bit that gets weird is that we are the same person in so many ways. Anger me and Tee is the one that attacks. But it’s me that does it.
    I hallucinate all the time. Everything has a voice and they talk to me, commonly it’s the sky or the light in my bedroom, or animals. I can talk to animals. They answer.
    But the voices tell me to die then they will go away. I don’t want to go into this but I tried on several occasions and Tee saved me.
    I am two people and Im dangerous. I can go from happy and fine to screaming and lashing out and back again in seconds. Sometimes I just space out and chat to the voices in my head.
    Everyone wants to hurt me. I’m suspicious of them all, especially adults. They don’t believe my power and they ignore it.
    What is this? Somebody tell me.
