Delusions

Today, I finally got the courage to tell my parents I think I'm suffering from schizophrenia. They refused to discuss it after telling me, "It's all in my head." FML

that's hard thing to admit to people it's unfortunate they reacted like that. hopefully you're in a position/place where you're able to get help for yourself. if you're young maybe see a school counselor and see if they can help. it won't be easy but it's worth it trust me I've know people with schizophrenia and it is definitely something you want want help with.

talk to their parents... it reads like they still live with family, so mid to late teens I would guess... IE the time in life you are supposed to be able to rely on them for help and advice... yes they should see a doctor and set it up alone if need be... but their parents sound kind of shitty...

Mental illness is in the brain, which is in the head. Now that we've established that, what are you going to do about that?

Yep, that's where the brain gremlins live. That said, OP, you can probably go see a psychiatrist who has cash payment available, if you have income. Most of them have a cash payment plan, specifically for situations like this.
