Suggest Remedy For Schizophrenia

hi im almost 20 years old and since around the age of around 10 ive seen heard and felt things that weren't really there. I never got diagnosed for schizophrenia but I am pretty positive I have it. I don't know what to do about it. I am really closed off and don't really talk to anyone about my struggles except my hallucinations. I have always been scared to take antipsychotics because im afraid I wont have anything or anyone left. my head troubles have gradually gotten worse over time to where its getting hard to get through the day. I want to be normal again.. but most of the "crazy pills" out there seem to be sketchy and very hit and miss. is that true? the last thing need is my head to get worse. Dr. Samuel I apologize for wasting your time I don't have money for this. I didn't know I had to pay for it
