Today, my mum dismissed my diagnosed schizophrenia as "too much time with those earphones in". FML

Show her to a doctor, it sounds like she has a case of being an idiot.

OP never said it was self diagnosed. Most are willing to bet OP went to a doctor and had it confirmed. (Not that we can be absolutely sure but I have my own doubts of it being self diagnosed)

Is your mom a doctor? No. She can't "de-diagnose you!"

I was diagnosed with depression at 15 from all the stuff going on back then. My parents don't believe me. I'm 22 nearly 23 now and they still don't get that I have severe depression now. Some parents just don't believe in mental illness. Also just because OP has schizophrenia it doesn't mean OP is "crazy" there are drugs you can take to reduce the hallucinations auditory or otherwise.

Struggling with boarder line personality daily sucks, which is what I have and I know from personal experience with my father that Schizophrenia is a horrible illness if not treated, please do your family, despite what your mother says, and take care of yourself! My father is too far gone now to function, he's 47 and we're pretty sure this is his last year with us.. I hope you learn to accept help when you don't want it, or don't think it's necessary, cause believe me.. It will happen.. :( Good luck, stay strong and remember reality is better than delusions.
