Hello,

It's been some time since I changed my phychiatrist, ( I wrote the reason in a previous post). the new phychiatrist think that I don't have phychotic symptoms instead he think that I just have social anxiety since I only think that people are talking about me and want to harm me, I am not actually believe that. he says I don't have schizophrenia because I don't have any phychotic symptoms anymore. he is decreasing the dose of antiphychotic and increasing the dose of anti-depressant.

I am no longer sure if I even had schizophrenia or my previous phychiatrist misdiagnosed me.

I didn't mention that I am also afraid of water and I don't shave my beard. Is it also symptoms of schizophrenia? Should I tell this to my psychiatrist?

Anything that causes you distress should be reported to your psychiatrist and therapist. Idk about the beard thing. I don't shave my beard, I don't think there is a related symptom.
