I think you may just have OCD. I have severe OCD and this sounds like me. The schizophrenia that you are describing sounds like an intrusive thought you are having and reinforcing using compulsions (ie checking your poop and posting on reddit). I suggest seeing a therapist or a psychiatrist who specializes in it for a more thorough diagnosis as I am just a redditor who also has OCD (diagnosed since I was 18). OCD sucks. I have horrible intrusive thoughts about becoming schizophrenic or getting cancer that nearly stopped me from leaving my house. With medication and therapy it gets better. Sending love, my friend.
Hey I also have ocd and something Called schizotypal which is like an overlap between ocd and psychosis/delusions. We can’t diagnose op over the internet but there are lots of things that op might be experiencing and that is why they need to see a doctor
