For those diagnosed with schizophrenia, what were your symptoms before the diagnosis?

What has been your experience with the illness and treatment like? Feel free to share your story!
I don't have schizophrenia, but I hallucinate a lot and often lose the ability to distinguish between reality and fantasy. My mind is generally fragile; if I think about something too much, I'll hallucinate about it and believe whatever it is. I hear voices, but they aren't human or demons they're just loud, disturbing, or repetitive noises.Such as screaming, the sound of breaking glass, or a loud alarm.I was thinking maybe it was related to schizophrenia, but I can't find anyone with an experience like mine.

It is impossible to state with absolute certainty whether you have schizophrenia specifically, however you definitely are suffering from a disorder and should seek professional help
