Answer 1

With the fluctuation in mood, it could be bipolar disorder. At the high, or mania, people can experience feelings of immortality, have grandiose thoughts, and even hallucinate. At the low, depression can cause suicidal thoughts and anxiety.
Go see a mental health professional as soon as possible, and be very specific with describing your concerns. You could see your school psychologist or nurse to direct you where to go from there to alleviate your fears.

Answer 2

Sounds like a panic attack and fantasy to me instead of social anxiety or schizophrenia. Self diagnosis, or by another non-professional, of any mental disorder is usually wrong. Such a panic attack may be brought on by fearing failure in school.

I suggest getting assistance in achieving "self-confidence" and "self-motivation" For a start type the previous words in quotes into Yahoo! web search. A number of informative links comes up for each. Also try "depression" for some clues as to whether you really are clinically depressed and self help in overcoming this. If all this fails to help see your GP physician for a recommend to a therapist.

If you persist in having suicidal thoughts definitely seek a med Doctor and/or call 1-800-SUICIDE, they will help you.

Good luck in your research and studies, good mental health, peace and Love!

Answer 3

I dont think you have Schizophrenia because people that have it actually believe all the things they see and hear are real, and they are not aware of themselves like you are. Also people with Schizophrenia might display flat affect, incoherence in speech and though, muscles might lock up, etc. talk by themselves, etc. Look up more info on Schizo, and go see a therapist ASAP.
